Waiting
Echoes of Lost Hope: Short Lived's Melodic Journey through Despair
Lyrics
Waiting for a sign, or any way out
Expressing a state of anticipation, seeking a signal or a way out.
In spite of of this I shouldn't think or feel anything else
Despite the situation, the speaker acknowledges the challenge of controlling thoughts and emotions.
I tried to bridge the gap of what once was
Attempting to bridge the gap between the present and a past state.
But it was clear, I fear
Realizing that the attempt to reconnect was unsuccessful, leading to fear and clarity about the absence of what once existed.
There's nothing left here now
Confirming the emptiness and absence of something meaningful in the current situation.
Don't try me now
Repetition emphasizing a plea or demand to avoid testing the speaker at this moment.
Don't try me now
-Don't try me now
-Stop what you're thinking
Urging to stop certain thoughts, clarifying they are not as expected, while acknowledging a continued descent or struggle.
It's not what you think
-Yet I still keep on sinking
-Again one more drink
Turning to alcohol as a coping mechanism.
I've lost so much ability
Expressing a loss of capability and the difficulty in finding positivity or sweetness.
It's hard to feel sweet
-One more chip off your shoulder
Desiring to elevate someone to new positive experiences and heights.
I wish that I could bring
-You to heights you've never seen
-Where light is pure and endless
Imagining a place without pain and suffering.
There'd be no more pain
-There be no more pain
Reiterating the desire for a pain-free existence.
But if not for today
Contemplating finding a better way for the future.
I'll try to find a better way
-If not for today, today, today
-If not for today
Repetition of the theme of searching for improvement or change.
If not for today
-Is this is it now?
Questioning the current state and wondering if a significant change has occurred.
Could you both be gone?
-Can't believe (I) don't get to say bye
Expressing disbelief at not having the opportunity to say goodbye.
It's all so wrong
Labeling the situation as fundamentally wrong.
I'll try to find the words to say
Attempting to find words to express thoughts but expecting them to be futile.
They'll all get lost
Anticipating that words will be lost in a chaotic and unresolved situation.
In the abyss of endless discord
-No problem solved
-But if not for today
Repeating the desire to find a better way, emphasizing the urgency for change.
I'll try to find a better way
-If not for today, today, today
-If not for today
Repetition emphasizing the plea for change.
If not for today!
-If not for today!
-The endless halls
Describing a state of discomfort and disappointment, using metaphors of endless halls, hot alcohol, and a disappointing world.
Hot alcohol
-There's no sense in comfortability
-It's in our fall
-The grace of days
-And endless space
-The world is a disappointment
-And time just fades away
-No problem solved
Reiterating that problems remain unsolved.
It's all so wrong
Repeating the sense of wrongness, the struggle to express feelings, and the expected loss of words in a troubled situation.
I'll try to find the words to say
-They'll all get lost
-No problem solved
-It's all so wrong
-I'll try to find the words to say
-They'll all get lost
-(Oh oh oh whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Repetition of the plea for change and improvement, possibly indicating desperation or urgency.
If not for today!
-(Oh oh oh whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
-If not for today!
-(If not for today)
-If not for today!
-(If not for today)
-IF NOT FOR TODAY!
Emphasizing the urgency and importance of change, using an exclamatory statement.
