Lyrics

Searching for pictures in the tiles on the floor.

Contemplating and searching for meaning or solace in the details of the surroundings.

While the day light slips by almost unnoticed.

Observing time passing by without much notice.

Minutes to hours spent doing less.

Passing time without productive or meaningful activities.

Voluntary confinement heart beats at a rest.

Choosing to isolate oneself voluntarily, with a calm heart and slowed heartbeat.


All systems failing

Experiencing a breakdown of various aspects or facets of life.

Lost at sea not sailing.

Feeling lost and directionless, akin to being adrift at sea.

Only just getting by at best.

Struggling to get through life, just managing to survive.

I've long resisted the static I exist in.

Resisting change or progress within a static and unchanging existence.

I should be calloused instead I built this palace.

Expressing a lack of emotional toughness or resilience, having built a metaphorical palace instead.

Raise the bridge, I'll spend the evening in.

Choosing to isolate oneself further by raising barriers, spending time alone.

And out the window with more than I care to know.

Reflecting on life with a sense of detachment or emotional distance.

Do you need to feel ashamed of things you will only do again?

Pondering whether one should feel ashamed about repeated actions.


When you know all the guilt will fade.

Acknowledging that guilt will eventually fade away.

With a routine of denial and forgetfulness.

Dealing with guilt through a routine of denial and forgetfulness.


All systems failing.

Experiencing a continued breakdown of various aspects or facets of life.

Lost at sea not sailing.

Continuing to feel lost and without direction.

Only just getting by at best.

Struggling to survive, just getting by with minimal effort.

I've long resisted the static I exist in.

Persisting in a static and unchanging existence, resisting change.

I should be calloused instead I built this palace.

Reiterating a lack of emotional toughness and the construction of a metaphorical palace.

Raise the bridge I'll spend the evening in.

Choosing to isolate oneself further by raising barriers, spending time alone (repeated).

And out the window with more than I care to know.

Reflecting on life with a sense of detachment or emotional distance (repeated).

Do you need to feel ashamed of the things you will only do again?

Pondering whether one should feel ashamed about repeated actions (repeated).


When you know all the guilt will fade

Reiterating that guilt will eventually fade away (repeated).

With a routine of denial and forgetfulness.

Dealing with guilt through a routine of denial and forgetfulness (repeated).
