Banshee
Unveiling the Psyche: Decoding the Emotional Turmoil in 'Banshee'
Lyrics
Days after days (Days after days)
Expressing the repetitiveness of time passing.
I tried to hide it and never let it out
Attempting to conceal emotions and keep them hidden.
I'm not a psychopath, I'll keep my face (straight)
Claiming not to be a psychopath and vowing to maintain composure.
To you it's all just a game, but it's too fucking late now
Addressing someone who treated the situation as a game, emphasizing that it's too late for them.
(But it's too fucking late now)
Reiteration of the irreversible nature of the situation.
So tell my why am I to blame (you will never)
Pleading innocence and questioning why the blame falls on them.
So tell me why I am the reason for your mistakes
Questioning their role as the cause of someone else's mistakes.
So tell my why am I to blame (you better)
Reiterating the innocence and expressing frustration with accusations.
Shut the fuck up, you're just so fucking fake
Telling someone to be quiet, accusing them of being insincere.
Shut the fuck up, you're just so fucking fake
Repetition of the previous line, emphasizing the fakeness of the person.
Shut the fuck up, you're just so fucking fake
Further emphasis on the insincerity of the person in question.
Keep your face (face) keep your face (straight)
Instructing to maintain a composed and serious facial expression.
Whatever happens, don't give in to the shakes
Encouraging resilience against emotional turmoil.
Don't let it break (don't let it break)
Advising against letting something emotionally significant break them.
Don't let it break (break)
Reiteration of not allowing a significant event to break them emotionally.
The doctor said it's all just in my head
Referring to a doctor's statement that the issues are psychological.
Keep your face (face) keep your face (straight)
Reiteration of maintaining a composed facial expression despite challenges.
Whatever happens, don't give in to the shakes
Encouraging resilience against emotional turmoil, echoing a previous sentiment.
Keep your face, keep your face
Repeating the instruction to maintain a composed facial expression.
To you it's all just a game but it's too fucking late now
Revisiting the idea that someone treated the situation as a game, emphasizing its lateness.
So tell my why am I to blame (you will never)

Shut the fuck up, you're just so fucking fake

Do you really wanna lie in my face
Posing a question about the sincerity of someone's statements.
Broken promises I'm waiting for the time to come
Awaiting the fulfillment of broken promises, anticipating a significant moment.
Break the chains that I've made for myself
Expressing a desire to break free from self-imposed constraints.
To make me stay and live in a lie
Desiring authenticity and rejecting a life built on lies.
Keep your face, keep your face
