Hatred
Unveiling the Depths: Saint of the Deep's Hatred Explored
Lyrics
I read the sign, it's in our eyes
The speaker notices a sign or signal in the eyes of someone.
I thought I'd save us time
The speaker intended to save time, possibly by addressing an issue.
But I can't say what's on my mind
Unable to express thoughts openly or honestly.
Just can't cross that line
A barrier exists, preventing the speaker from crossing a certain line.
We're going down, we're going down down
A sense of decline or deterioration is emphasized, repeating for emphasis.
We're going down, we're going down down
-I once felt like the world with you
Recalling a time when the speaker felt connected to the world through someone.
Should have known I'd come to hate you too
Regretting the realization that the connection led to hatred.
All the rage and blood, all the fires and floods
Describing intense emotions like rage, blood, fires, and floods, leading to a metaphorical descent into mud.
Lead me, lead me, lead me down in the mud
-I once felt like the world with you
Similar to line 7, emphasizing the contrast between past positivity and present negativity.
Should have known I'd come to hate you too
Reiteration of regret for coming to hate the person mentioned.
All the rage and blood, all the fires and floods
Repetition of intense emotions and the metaphorical descent into mud.
Lead me, lead me, lead me down in the mud
-I know it's wrong to fill my lungs
Acknowledging the wrongdoing of inhaling negativity from hurtful words.
With words from bitter tongues
Describing words as coming from bitter tongues.
I'll try to resist but I'm overcome
Attempting to resist negativity but feeling overwhelmed.
Strung along by the beat of the drum
Being influenced or controlled by external forces, symbolized by the beat of the drum.
We're going down, we're going down down
Reiteration of a sense of decline, with an intensified descent.
We're going down, we're going down down down
-I once held peace within my hands
Recalling a time when the speaker felt peace but lost it over time.
Lost it with the fleeting hour-glass sands
Reference to the fleeting nature of time, leading to the loss of peace.
All my trust and hope, with only it to cope
Losing trust and hope, left only with the metaphorical grip on a rope.
Leaves me, leaves me, leaves me gripping' the rope
-I once felt like the world with you
Reiteration of a past positive connection, now overshadowed by hatred.
Should have known I'd come to hate you too
Reaffirmation of regret for coming to hate the person mentioned.
All the rage and blood, all the fires and floods
Repetition of intense emotions and the metaphorical descent into mud.
Leads me, leads me, leads me down in the mud
