Lyrics
She told me a million times
Repetition emphasizes the urgency of a message received multiple times.
This city is built on lies
City characterized as fundamentally deceitful and built on falsehoods.
I told her
Response to the warning about the city's nature.
Let's burn it down
Expressing a desire to destroy the deceptive city.
But these ghouls
Ghouls symbolize persistent negative forces or corruption.
They never die
Highlighting the resilience of negative influences.
You try to keep moving
Encountering obstacles while trying to progress.
They tear you down
External forces causing setbacks or destruction.
As quick as you get up
Difficulty in sustaining progress due to external interference.
I've seen it before
Reference to a recurring pattern of obstacles.
You try to keep moving
Reiteration of the challenge to keep moving forward.
They tear you down
Continued struggle against external forces.
Over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the struggle.
But it's gettin' worse now
Noticing a worsening trend in the challenges faced.
So, it's time to get out
Decision to leave the problematic environment.
I told you
Reiterating the importance of the advice to leave.
A million times
Repetition of the warning about the world's nature.
This world will sacrifice
World portrayed as willing to sacrifice goodness for profit.
Any good that it finds
Highlighting the world's disregard for positive values.
Just to make another dime
Corruption for monetary gain as a prevailing theme.
You try to keep moving
Repeating the theme of facing obstacles while moving forward.
They tear you down
External forces persistently causing setbacks.
As quick as you get up
Difficulty in maintaining progress due to interference.
I've seen it before
Reflecting on the recurrence of challenges.
You try to keep moving
Continued struggle against forces hindering progress.
They'll tear you down
External forces consistently causing setbacks.
Over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the struggle.
But it's gettin' worse now
Observing an escalation in the difficulties faced.
So, ya gotta get out
Deciding it is imperative to leave the worsening situation.
Waitin' for the day
Anticipating a change that never materializes.
It never comes again
Perpetual waiting for improvement that never arrives.
You're always fighting
Constantly engaged in a struggle or conflict.
Drowning in your own
Being overwhelmed by self-destructive tendencies.
Sickness you condone
Acceptance or tolerance of one's own harmful behaviors.
I pray you never breath
An earnest hope that negative influences cease to exist.
Again
A wish for the end of detrimental actions or existence.
You try to keep moving
Reiteration of facing obstacles while trying to progress.
They tear you down
External forces causing setbacks or destruction.
As quick as you get up
Difficulty in sustaining progress due to external interference.
I've seen it before
Reference to a recurring pattern of obstacles.
You try to keep moving
Reiteration of the challenge to keep moving forward.
They tear you down
Continued struggle against external forces.
Over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the struggle.
But it's gettin' worse now
Noticing a worsening trend in the challenges faced.
So, it's time to get out
Decision to leave the problematic environment.
