Lost Within
Lost Within: Battling the Shadows of Despair
Lyrics
Depression breeds like rats
Depression spreads rapidly, much like rats multiplying.
And turns your soul to black
Depression darkens and corrupts the essence of your being.
You no longer care that you feel nothing
You reach a point where you're indifferent to the absence of emotions.
Bow down
An instruction to submit and obey.
And serve your master
Bowing down to a controlling force.
Bow down
Reinforcing the idea of servitude.
Your life is mine
Asserting dominance over one's life.
Will you survive the day
Questioning if one can endure the challenges of the day.
Or will you disappear and fade away
Contemplating the possibility of disappearing and fading into obscurity.
Heard all you have to say
Hearing and acknowledging all that has been said.
Lost within the grey
Being adrift and confused in a monotonous, lifeless state.
Your will has disappeared
Your determination or purpose has vanished.
Breath in the soulless air
Inhaling a sense of emptiness and desolation.
An undead memory that's slowly fading
A fading memory that lacks vitality.
Bow down
Reiterating the insignificance of one's life.
Your life means nothing
Emphasizing the perceived worthlessness of existence.
Bow down
Continuing the theme of being lost and directionless.
Your lost within
Confirming the state of being lost within oneself.
Will you survive the day
Questioning the ability to endure the challenges of the day again.
Or will you disappear and fade away
Contemplating the possibility of disappearing once more.
Same lies told another way
Noting the repetition of falsehoods in a different guise.
Lost within the grey
Reiterating the feeling of being lost within the ambiguity.
You sacrificed all that kept you strong
Having sacrificed elements that provided strength.
Changed your mind the minute things went wrong
Changing allegiances when faced with adversity.
Turned away from what you created
Turning away from the creation of one's own destiny.
Bowed your head and served the ones you hated
Submitting to and serving those despised.
I thought I knew you well
A realization that previous understanding was incomplete.
Now only time will tell
Only time will reveal the true nature of the situation.
Will you survive the day
Questioning survival in the face of challenges.
Or will you disappear and fade away
Contemplating the possibility of disappearing and fading away.
Heard all you had to say
Hearing and considering all that has been expressed.
Lost within the grey
Being lost within the uncertain and undefined.
You're lost
A declaration of being truly lost.
You're lost
Reiterating the sense of being lost.
