Lyrics
I'd really like to get this off my chest
I have something important to confess or express.
Speak through these words in your hands
Communicating my thoughts or feelings through the lyrics you hold.
I find it hard to know where to begin
Starting to talk about something, finding it challenging to begin.
So I'll just dive in
Despite the difficulty, I'll start right away.
I know that I've been looking rather thin
I've appeared physically thin, resembling myself but without the extra weight.
Like myself but minus the chins
Comparing my current appearance to a thinner version of myself.
It's not their drugs that eat me from within
Internal struggles bother me, not solely caused by drugs but affected by them too.
But they don't help either
Although not the sole cause, drugs contribute negatively to my situation.
I've been lying to myself through all these years
I've been dishonest with myself for many years.
So blind, so insincere
Blind and insincere in my actions or beliefs.
And now any day, I'm bound to disappear
I feel like disappearing soon, as if I'm already gone in some way.
But I'm gone already
My sense of self or presence is already diminished or fading.
They'll pry until my memory's erased
Others will try to erase my memory or identity.
Stripped like the smile from my face
My joy or positivity will be taken away.
So I'll bow and let my maker lead the way
I'll submit and let fate or destiny take control.
In this last dance
Approaching the end or a significant change in life.
I could peel my heart wide open
I can emotionally expose myself fully.
I could dream without a crutch
I could dream or hope without relying on a crutch or support.
But lies run deeper than an ocean
Lies have a profound impact, deeper than the ocean.
And my two feet can hardly touch
I feel disconnected or unable to reach a profound truth.
I never saw it clearer than tonight
Tonight, things are clearer to me than ever before.
Like a burning candle or flashlight
Comparing clarity to a bright source of light.
No paradise will greet me when I die
I don't anticipate a heavenly reward after death, just emptiness.
Just white noise
Expecting a lack of meaningful experience after death.
I'm guided by a voice choking on tears
I'm guided by a voice filled with emotion and pain.
He's got orders, a promising career
Referring to someone with authority or control over me.
Through the dark we don't see the puppeteer
We're unaware of the forces manipulating us.
In the final hour
Referring to a critical or concluding moment.
Now whether I've been speaking for myself
Unsure if my words are truly my own or influenced by others.
Or taking cues from someone else
Questioning the authenticity of my expression.
Just know that I will sleep right through the bells
Regardless, I'll remain undisturbed by external events.
And dream eternal
I'll dream endlessly or eternally.
I could peel my heart wide open
I could expose my emotions fully.
I could dream without a crutch
I could hope or dream without relying on external support.
But lies run deeper than an ocean
Lies have a profound impact, deeper than the ocean.
And my two feet can hardly touch
Feeling disconnected or unable to grasp deep truths.
When my time is coming
Reflecting on the approaching end of life.
Will you let me go
Asking for permission to depart when the end is near.
When the fire's burning
Seeking acknowledgment or awareness as the end nears.
Will you let me know
Asking for awareness or notification when something significant happens.
