Captive to the Inanition
Captive Echoes: Battling Despair and Earth's Prophecy
Lyrics
How could I fall so short?
Expressing a sense of personal failure or inadequacy.
Consumed by my disgrace
Overwhelmed by a strong feeling of shame or dishonor.
Sit back and watch as your fellow man
Observing passively as fellow humans contribute to the predicted downfall of Earth.
Fulfills the prophecy of Earth's collapse
Acknowledging the realization of a prophesied collapse of the planet.
Sweet darkness, lend me your warm embrace
Seeking comfort and solace from a metaphorical "sweet darkness."
Give me the strength to withstand
Pleading for strength to endure challenges and hardships.
Let me see beyond the cracks in the mirror
Desiring insight beyond superficial appearances or illusions.
Bestow upon me the means to escape your grasp
Requesting the means to break free from a metaphorical entity's control.
How long does it take for these goddamn chains to break?
Frustration with the prolonged duration required to break free from restrictive circumstances.
Though damnation always seemed befitting
Acknowledging a sense that punishment or condemnation is fitting.
And how long will it take for the agony to dissipate?
Questioning the duration it takes for intense emotional pain to diminish.
Dismantle that which holds me down
Advocating the dismantling of obstacles that hinder personal progress.
We're captive
Stating a collective condition of being confined or restricted.
To the
Reiterating the state of being captive.
Inanition
Introducing the concept of being captive to "inanition," possibly representing emptiness or exhaustion.
Captive
Reaffirming the state of being captive.
To the
Reiterating the state of being captive to "inanition."
Inanition, oh
Continuing to emphasize the captivity to emptiness or exhaustion.
Make it all
Expressing a desire for everything to simply vanish or cease to exist.
Just simply disappear
Reflecting on the inevitable disappearance of things with the passage of time.
In time we all
Acknowledging the universal experience of losing cherished elements over time.
Lose that which we hold dear
Suggesting that the path of righteousness does not lead to salvation.
The righteous path
Questioning the idea that following a virtuous path guarantees salvation.
Leads us not to salvation
Implying that the righteous path redirects individuals back into the grip of emptiness or exhaustion.
It feeds us back into the clutches of the inanition, oh
Reiterating the cyclical nature of being ensnared by the forces of emptiness or exhaustion.
