Lyrics

For all my life

Expressing a longing or desire that spans their entire life.

I have wanted to step out of this skin

Desire to break free from their current identity or situation.

And forget all I know

Yearning to forget all accumulated knowledge and experience.

It escapes me

Feeling that understanding or realization is elusive or slipping away.

Within the throes of self

Feeling overwhelmed within one's own inner struggles and conflicts.

I drown out

Sense of drowning out the self amidst challenges.

Amongst an endless string of variables

Being lost among numerous unpredictable factors.

That now will collide in an instant

Anticipating a convergence of circumstances with significant impact.

Embraced by the world with its cold disinterest

Feeling accepted by the world but without genuine interest or warmth.

Why should I attempt to reconcile

Questioning the motive to reconcile given a life dominated by resentment.

When I exist only through resentment

Existence defined by negative emotions, particularly resentment.

I know, I know how this ends

Awareness of the inevitable outcome: solitude.

Alone

Emphasizing the theme of being alone.

And still I lament against a lifetime of bearing this fucking regret

Lamenting a lifetime burdened by intense regret.

From every mistake that I've made

Reflecting on the consequences of past mistakes.

And this debt that I owe it is too immense to ever repay

Acknowledging an overwhelming debt that cannot be repaid.

To fucking repay

Stressing the impossibility of repayment.

We're fucked either way

Conveying a sense of hopelessness and inevitability.

We're fucked either way

Reiterating the grim outlook on the situation.

You're fucked

Directing negativity towards someone, possibly a listener.

The depth of deceit

Describing the profound nature of deception surrounding them.

Now enveloping me

Experiencing the impact of deception and its lingering effects.

And twisting the blade once again but there's

Acknowledging pain or betrayal but suggesting a lack of emotional response.

Nothing left to bleed

Expressing a sense of emptiness or depletion.

Rot

Using "Rot" metaphorically, possibly indicating decay or deterioration.

I know it's selfish

Admitting a selfish perspective, denying responsibility for blame.

Rejecting the blame though it's mine

Accepting blame but asserting a desire to detach from it.

I know it's selfish

Repeating the acknowledgment of selfishness and a decision to leave others.

But I'm leaving you all behind

Affirming the choice to abandon others despite recognizing selfishness.

I know it's selfish

Repeating the internal conflict between accepting and rejecting blame.

Rejecting the blame though it's mine

Reiterating the decision to distance oneself from others despite self-awareness.

I know it's selfish

Affirming the selfish choice to abandon others and reject responsibility.

But I'm leaving you all behind

Reiterating the intention to leave others behind, emphasizing selfishness.

Rot inside this hole with baited breath I wait to hear you speak

Describing a state of isolation, waiting for communication with anticipation.

I remain enthralled inside the boundless grasp of consequence

Being captivated or controlled by the consequences of actions.

I failed you

Expressing personal failure and acknowledging it.

I failed you

Repeated acknowledgment of personal failure.

I failed you

Reiterating the theme of personal failure, possibly emphasizing regret.

I failed you

Continuing to admit personal failure, reinforcing a sense of remorse.

Punishment is all that awaits us now

Anticipating a bleak future characterized by punishment.

It's all that awaits us now

Reiterating the expectation of punishment as the inevitable outcome.
