Escape
Breaking Chains: A Journey of Redemption and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Sleep in those shameful times
Sleeping during difficult or shameful periods.
Alike as to move land to avoid the tides
Attempting to move away from problems like moving land to avoid tides.
To escape reality, to cut the ties
Seeking an escape from reality and wanting to sever connections.
My bland ways defeated, I apologize
Apologizing for past uninteresting or uninspiring behavior.
Thoughts in regretful times
Reflecting on thoughts during regretful times.
I dismissed the warnings, the end was so nigh
Ignoring warnings, leading to an imminent end.
I escaped reality, now I cut the ties
Successfully escaping reality and cutting ties.
My bland ways defeated, my apology
Apologizing again for defeating bland ways.
See me for what I am, not who I once was
Asking to be seen for the current self, not the past.
I'm a better man and it's because
Claiming personal growth and improvement.
I heard the silence calling, calling my name
Hearing the call of silence, indicating a transformative experience.
I'm another man, I'm not the same
Expressing a significant change in identity.
Truth hurts the hardest
Emphasizing the painful nature of truth.
When it stabs you in the neck
Describing the intensity of truth when it hurts deeply.
A mind, now a carcass
Equating the mind to a lifeless body, possibly due to the impact of truth.
I'm a self-made wreck
Acknowledging personal destruction, self-inflicted.
Truth hurts the hardest
Reiterating the painful aspect of truth.
When it stabs you in the neck
Repeating the analogy of a lifeless mind due to harsh truths.
A mind, now a carcass
Reaffirming personal wreckage and ruin.
I'm a self-made wreck
Stating self-destruction as a consequence of personal actions.
See me for what I am, not who I once was
Repeating the plea to be seen for the current self, not the past.
I'm a better man and it's because
Reiterating personal growth and positive change.
I heard the silence calling, calling my name
Revisiting the transformative experience of hearing silence.
I'm another man, I'm not the same
Affirming a continued shift in identity.
I heard the siren, I stood my ground
Hearing a siren and standing one's ground.
I knew the virus, the truth got confound
Understanding a viral truth that is confusing or confounding.
I understood the crying, couldn't make a sound
Comprehending the pain and inability to express emotions.
The abyss is drying now and I've let myself down
Feeling regret for personal failures as represented by a drying abyss.
Truth hurts the hardest
Reiterating the painful nature of truth.
When it stabs you in the neck
Repeating the metaphor of truth stabbing like a knife.
A mind, now a carcass
Reaffirming the mind as a lifeless body due to harsh truths.
I'm a self-made wreck
Restating personal wreckage and ruin.
But what bothers me is that some is forgiven
Expressing discomfort with selective forgiveness in society.
And to some hell is all that is given
Reflecting on the unequal distribution of hardship and suffering.
