I Might Be Dead
Resilience in Silence: Royal Hearts' Journey Beyond Emptiness
Lyrics
Pick myself up off of the floor once again
Picking oneself up after a setback.
Moving forward
Committing to move forward.
Even if have to pretend
Being determined to continue, even if it requires pretending.
Emptiness has taken all that I used to be
Feeling a sense of loss and emptiness, a change from the past.
Waking up, prepare for another day
Preparing for a new day after waking up.
This one is different I swear I'll be ok
Expressing optimism about a different, better day.
I'm not ok
Contrasting the earlier optimism, acknowledging not being okay.
I'm not ok
-I might be dead but I'm still trying
Asserting determination to continue despite challenges and fears.
Persevere in spite of my fears
-Take me back to the life that I lived
Desiring a return to a previous life and questioning the meaning of happiness.
Tell me what does happiness mean
-Emptiness has taken over me
Feeling emptiness, being lost and incomplete.
I'm lost and broken
-I'm always incomplete
-When will it let me go?
Reiterating the impact of emptiness on the individual.
Emptiness
-Has taken me
-I might be dead but I'm still trying
Repeating the determination to persevere despite challenges.
Persevere in spite of my fears
-Take me back to the life that I lived
Expressing a desire to return to a meaningful life and seeking the definition of happiness.
Tell me what does happiness mean
-I've been broken more than complete
Highlighting a state of brokenness with pieces falling apart.
All these pieces falling from me
-Take me back to the life that I lived
Reiterating the desire to return to a past life and questioning happiness.
Tell me what does happiness mean
-I used to be so dead inside
Reflecting on a past state of emotional deadness and newfound vitality.
But today I've never felt so alive
-I might be dead
Reiterating the acknowledgment of challenges but expressing determination to try.
But I'm still trying
-But months and years have me turned around
Feeling disoriented by time but finally able to breathe again.
I can finally breath again
-I can breath again
Emphasizing the relief of being able to breathe again.
I'm fucking dying
Acknowledging the difficulty of the situation but still trying.
But I keep trying
Expressing the persistent effort to overcome challenges.
To claw my way back out
Describing the struggle to escape fear and asserting one's continued presence.
Of this fear
-I'm still here
Reiterating the survival and existence despite challenges and hardships.
I might be dead
