Beyond the Void
Journey Through the Void: Unveiling Inner Conflicts
Lyrics
A titan swells from cobblestone
A powerful force emerges from humble origins (cobblestone).
I fear his form, his hollow moan
The speaker is afraid of this imposing figure, noting its empty, haunting sound.
If he sees me slip, he might judge me
Fear of judgment if the formidable entity observes the speaker's vulnerability.
Small as I am, I go to sleep
Despite being small, the speaker goes to sleep, facing challenges bravely.
If you are a brick, then I am a bone
A comparison between the speaker (bone) and another (brick), emphasizing complementarity.
And if you surround me, I'll build you a home
The speaker promises to provide support and shelter if surrounded by the other.
I swing with the rest, a blistering bomb
The speaker actively participates, akin to a destructive force (blistering bomb).
And when you surround me, I became undone
When surrounded, the speaker feels vulnerable and unravels.
My one desire is in your breast
The speaker's deepest desire is associated with the other's chest.
Upon the shelves, your narrow chest
Describing a physical place where desires are stored (shelves in a narrow chest).
Beyond the void there is a screen
Refers to a space beyond emptiness or darkness (void) with a screen.
Voices I don't know speak for me
Unfamiliar voices speak on behalf of the speaker in this mysterious realm.
If you are a brick, then I am a bone
Reiteration of the bone-brick analogy, emphasizing unity.
And if you surround me, I'll build you a home
A promise to create a home if surrounded by the other.
I swing with the rest, a blistering bomb
The speaker is part of a destructive force, a metaphorical bomb.
And when you surround me, I became undone
Vulnerability and unraveling occur when surrounded.
In conflict, who is dangerous?
Pondering on who poses a threat in times of conflict.
The elite right in front
The danger is associated with the elite, positioned prominently.
In conflict, who is dangerous?
A repetition of the question, emphasizing the perceived threat.
Burnt tapestry in front of me
A damaged or ruined depiction (burnt tapestry) symbolizing conflict.
If you are a brick, then I am a bone
Reiteration of the bone-brick analogy and the promise of creating a home.
And if you surround me, I'll build you a home
Commitment to support and provide shelter when surrounded by the other.
I swing with the rest, a blistering bomb
The speaker is part of a destructive force, likened to a bomb.
And when you surround me, I became undone
Reiteration of vulnerability and unraveling when surrounded.
