Rotten Soul
Rotten Soul: Unveiling the Dark Symphony of Inner Struggle
Lyrics
I put myself in this prison
I willingly subjected myself to a metaphorical prison
And came away with my sins
I confronted and acknowledged my sins
I’m watching all these walls closing in
I feel trapped and overwhelmed by my surroundings
Where do i begin?
I'm unsure where to start addressing my issues
I’m worried that
I am anxious that
I keep medicating myself
I repeatedly use substances to cope
But it’s bad for my health
Recognizing that this coping mechanism is detrimental to my well-being
Trying to come up for air
I'm struggling to breathe, metaphorically seeking relief
But I keep finding that life don’t treat you fair
Life seems unjust, making it difficult to persevere
Why do I even care?
I question the significance of caring
If I’m a stranger to myself
I feel disconnected from my true self
If I can stand up in this hell of a home
Struggling to endure the difficulties of my living situation
Let the case go cold
Letting go of unresolved issues
Yellow tape unrolled
Symbolizing the end of a situation with crime scene imagery
I’m just a rotten soul
Describing oneself as morally corrupt or troubled
I’m sinking so deep in my skin
Feeling deeply immersed in emotional distress
But I might let you in
Considering allowing someone to understand my struggles
Fucking around with my head again
External influences causing mental confusion
But there’s a consequence
Acknowledging potential negative outcomes
I know it’s just not fair
Recognizing the unfairness of a past relationship
That girl, she took more life than I could spare
A girl took more from me than I could afford
You get what’s left me
Left with what little remains
If I’m a stranger to myself
Continuing the theme of feeling estranged from oneself
If I can stand up in this hell of a home
Navigating through a challenging home environment
Let the case go cold
Allowing unresolved issues to fade away
Yellow tape unrolled
Imagery of a crime scene, indicating the end of a situation
I’m just a rotten soul
Reiterating a sense of moral corruption or inner turmoil
I’m spending all my time waiting for the end
Spending time anticipating the end of a difficult situation
All I want is just to live again
Expressing a desire for a fresh start
I'm hearing all these voices scream inside my head
Hearing disturbing inner thoughts and struggles
I fear that death is a part of me
Fearing that death is an integral part of oneself
If I’m a stranger to myself
Revisiting the theme of feeling disconnected from oneself
If I can stand up in this hell of a home
Enduring hardships within a challenging home environment
Let the case go cold
Letting go of unresolved issues and moving on
Yellow tape unrolled
Symbolic representation of the end of a situation
I’m just a rotten soul
Acknowledging a sense of moral corruption or inner turmoil
