Perfect Life
Unveiling the Dark Tapestry: Seraphim Shock's Ode to Imperfect Lives
Lyrics
It seems like yesterday
Reflecting on a past time, possibly a relationship.
Through the rain and tears
Expressing emotional difficulty, symbolized by rain and tears.
I watched you walk away again
Observing someone leaving again.
I know my love
Acknowledging love for the person.
I know the pain
Recognizing the accompanying pain.
Your perfect life
Commenting on the person's seemingly perfect life.
Your perfect face
Noting the perfection of the person's appearance.
All your promises
Highlighting unfulfilled promises.
Everything you fake
Pointing out the facade in everything the person presents.
Don't care what you want
Indicating indifference to the person's desires.
Don't care what you need
Expressing a lack of concern for the person's needs.
Don't care how you feel
Emphasizing emotional detachment from the person's feelings.
For what it is you bleed
Disregarding the person's suffering or sacrifice.
Another year is gone
Reflecting on the passage of time.
And will you just hold on to be
Questioning if the person will continue holding on.
To be... [x2]
Repetition of questioning the person's resilience.
Sometimes I cry for you
Expressing sorrow or empathy for the person.
I bet you'd die to be
Suggesting the person's potential longing for a different life.
Just like one of us
Comparing the person to others who have fallen or are free.
The fallen... the free
Referring to a group known as "The fallen... the free."
I'll hate you just to hate
Expressing hatred towards the person.
Don't think that I'll forgive
Rejecting the possibility of forgiveness.
What you've done to us
Accusing the person of causing harm to a collective "us."
Or how it should've been
Reflecting on how things should have been.
Another year is gone
Repeating the reflection on time passing.
And will you just hold on to be
Questioning if the person will continue holding on (repeated).
To be... [x2]
Repetition of questioning the person's resilience.
In a sea of blood
Describing a grim environment of blood and hate.
In a sea of hate
Witnessing the downfall of angels one by one.
I watched the angels fall, one by one
Reflecting on the decay of the physical body but asserting personal will.
This flesh will rot and still I am
Asserting personal determination and completion of one's will.
My will be done, my will be done
Reiteration of personal will being done.
