Damage Control
Soul's Descent: Unveiling the Darkness in Shellshock's 'Damage Control'
Lyrics
Still in this day and age
Reflecting on the present time
No one cares, no one sees your pain
People are indifferent, unaware of your suffering
Apart from the face you see
Except for your own reflection
So much darkness lies beneath
Hidden pain and troubles beneath the surface
Tossed aside, stripped of pride, eat the lies
Rejected, dignity lost, accepting falsehoods
Now there's no life left in your eyes
Emptiness and despair reflected in your eyes
Too late for damage control
Opportunity for corrective action has passed
Sit back while the sickness takes your soul
Passively witnessing the decay of your essence
Monetary gain stemmed from pain
Material gain at the expense of suffering
Damage is done, only scars remain
Irreparable harm, only scars endure
Priorities left unchecked
Neglecting important priorities
We deserve what's coming next
Anticipating the consequences we deserve
We deserve what's coming next
Reiteration of deserving impending repercussions
Medicated
Dependence on medication
Castrated
Emasculation, feeling powerless
Look at the world we've created
Reflection on the negative impact of society
Medicated
Continued reliance on medication
Castrated
Feeling emasculated persists
Look at the world we've created
Observation of the negative world we've created
Too late for damage control
Opportunity for correction has passed
Now the pain has taken its toll
The pain has become overwhelming
Held down, hell bound
Restrained and destined for torment
Look around, no help to be found
No assistance in sight, surrounded by suffering
No help to be found
Emphasizing the absence of help
Too late for damage control
Opportunity for correction has passed (repeated)
Now the pain has taken its toll
The pain has become overwhelming (repeated)
Time is up, we have sealed our fate
Time is up, irreversible destiny awaits
No one is safe, it's far too late
No one is exempt, too late for salvation
It's far too late
Reiteration of the irreversible nature of the situation
Into the mouth of hell we march
Marching into a dire situation
Too late for damage control
Opportunity for correction has passed (repeated)
Now the pain has taken its toll
The pain has become overwhelming (repeated)
Too late for damage control
Reiteration of the missed opportunity for correction
