Effort to Waste
Echoes of Lost Nights: A Sober Conscience Confronts the Painful Realities
Lyrics
Drunk on the blood
Intoxicated with blood
Stuck to the rug
Unable to move, fixed to the rug
He vomits nostalgia
Experiencing a feeling of longing for the past
As the casualties
People affected by his actions witness his intense anger
Watch him seethe
Observers watch him angrily but cautiously
With careful curiosity
Observing with careful interest
With a raw dialogue
A conversation marked by raw emotion
An effort to waste
An attempt to squander or waste something
He gives his sermon
He delivers his message or teachings
But his words are pointless
His words hold no meaning or impact to those who are not affected by intoxication
To the sober conscience
Others who are sober are unaffected by his words
They breathe the same air
Everyone shares the same reality
All is mind as mind is all
The concept that everything exists within the mind
Flesh is stone as stone is flesh
Comparing the solidity of flesh to stone
Pain is real as real is pain
Emphasizing the reality of pain
In a sad awakening
Realizing a harsh reality
He finds a window
He discovers an opportunity for change
God its mourning
Expressing mourning or lamentation towards God
All thoughts pierce
Thoughts penetrate deeply
As memories are scarce
Recollections are becoming scarce
And the cuts have dried out
Wounds have healed, but the fear remains
But the terror or
Intense fear experienced during the lost nights
The nights he lost
The nights he can't recall haunt him
Still hands his head low
He still feels the weight of regret or sorrow
Drunk on the rug
Intoxicated again, this time on the rug
Stuck to the blood
Blood adheres to him, stuck again
He vomits nostalgia
Repeating the feeling of nostalgia and longing for the past
I waited so long for something to seem real
A long wait for something genuine or authentic
I had so many questions
Having numerous unanswered queries
I answered all my questions
Having found answers to all the questions
When I seen your face turn
Seeing a significant change in someone's expression
And I knew what was real
Understanding what reality truly is
And I knew what was lost
Recognizing what has been lost in reality
Yes I know what was real
Confirmation of understanding reality and its losses
