Brings Me Down
Echoes of Desolation: Rose Madder's Struggle
Lyrics
Stuck in one place since they left me behind
Feeling stagnant and stuck in a place after being abandoned.
Out of the game, and I'm losing my mind
Being out of a certain activity or situation and experiencing mental distress.
I've still got so much to give
Expressing the belief that there is still a lot to offer or contribute.
I've still got so much to live
Emphasizing the desire to continue living and experiencing life.
The feet trampling my chest
Feeling overwhelmed and oppressed, as if a crowd is pressing on the chest.
Bring me down
The collective pressure and negativity bring down the individual.
Trudging along in wet concrete knee high
Describing a slow and difficult progression, like walking through wet concrete.
Catch glimpses of the setting sun in the sky
Finding brief moments of beauty, symbolized by glimpses of the setting sun.
The windows are losing their light
Indicating a loss of clarity or brightness in the surroundings.
The windows are losing their sight
Suggesting a decline in perception or insight, represented by windows losing sight.
The music plays all through the night
Despite challenges, the music continues, potentially representing resilience.
And it brings me down
The persistent music contributes to a sense of being brought down.
Floating through space with no helmet, no cape
Feeling exposed and vulnerable, floating in space without protection.
Exposed to the sun and the asteroids, no escape
Being in a situation with no escape, facing external threats.
And slowly, the Earth fades to gray
Observing a gradual loss of vibrancy or significance in life.
And slowly, the Earth fades away
Continuing the theme of fading, with the Earth losing prominence.
Enveloped in darkness and dread
Feeling surrounded by darkness and a sense of foreboding.
And it brings me down
The overwhelming darkness contributes to a sense of being brought down.
Convicted by sound and by essence, it's a thrill
Being judged or condemned based on sound or essence, experiencing excitement or fear.
In front of the judge who goes in for the kill
Facing a judgmental audience that intensifies the emotional impact.
Divided, the crowd starts to grow
Experiencing division and discord among people, possibly related to the judgment.
Divided, the crowd starts to know
The division among the crowd becomes more apparent and known.
The sickening scratch of their throats
Describing a disturbing or unsettling noise that affects the individual negatively.
Brings me down
The unpleasant sound contributes to a sense of being brought down.
