80 Proof
Navigating Shadows: 80 Proof's Journey of Self-Redemption
Lyrics
So out of touch with the world around me
Feeling disconnected from the world around, a sense of alienation.
Yesterday feels like tomorrow
The past (yesterday) and future (tomorrow) seem indistinguishable, blurring together.
Laying in the dark, wondering when you'll call my name again
Lying in darkness, longing for someone to call their name again.
Imprison me one more time, quick and painless
Expressing a desire to be freed from imprisonment quickly and without pain.
Rise up only to fall, can't feel nothing at all
Rising up in life only to experience a fall, numbness prevails.
Chasing myself around in circles
Engaged in repetitive, unproductive behavior, feeling stuck.
Can't find the key to the door, it's like I've been here before
Unable to find a solution or escape, a sense of déjà vu.
Might as well surrender
Suggesting resignation, giving in to circumstances.
Rip me apart, I'll never yield
Resisting emotional pain, refusing to break under pressure.
Broken hearts and clouded memories
Alluding to the aftermath of heartbreak and memories clouded by emotion.
The morning light is surely to reveal
Anticipating that the morning light will bring clarity and truth.
But here we are, let's go
A call to move forward despite challenges.
Crawl from the wreckage of my mistakes
Emerging from the consequences of past mistakes, a process of recovery.
Dragging me all the way back to the start
Being dragged back to the starting point by one's own actions.
Holding on tight even when I say when
Holding on tightly even when expressing a desire to let go.
Corrupt me with your sweetness, open fire
Alluding to the seductive and destructive nature of a person or experience.
80 proof in my veins fills the hole that you made
Finding solace or escape in intoxication (80 proof) to fill an emotional void.
Bury myself deeper and deeper
Sinking deeper into emotional turmoil, possibly self-destructive behavior.
Can't find the key to the door, it's like I've been here before
Reiterating the feeling of being stuck, a repeated struggle.
Might as well surrender
Reinforcing the idea of surrendering to challenging circumstances.
Rip me apart, I'll never yield
Reaffirming resilience against emotional pain and pressure.
Broken hearts and clouded memories
Reflecting on the aftermath of heartbreak and memories clouded by emotion.
The morning light is surely to reveal
Expecting the morning light to bring clarity and truth once again.
But here we are
Despite challenges, the present moment is acknowledged and embraced.
Why can't I save me from myself?
Expressing a struggle with self-saving, a plea for intervention from within.
From myself
Repeating the internal struggle, a recognition of personal challenges.
