Medicate
Journey Through Desolation: Embracing Ghosts and Numbing Pain
Lyrics
Are you there lost along the way?
Expressing a sense of being lost or disconnected along the journey of life.
Opening doors trying to medicate.
Attempting to find solace or escape through the act of medicating, possibly metaphorically.
I'm still here waiting to embrace,
Remaining present and hopeful, waiting for a positive connection or experience.
Finding your ghost that's already been erased.
Seeking something that has already disappeared or been forgotten.
So hold on until I'm gone,
Encouraging resilience and asking to endure until the speaker is no longer present.
When I get there I'll take you along.
Promising to bring someone along once the speaker reaches a certain point or state.
We'll hide away from the rest of the world someday.
Desiring seclusion and escape from the challenges of the world in the future.
Underneath eternal skies as we watch the days go by.
Imagining a tranquil and timeless place to observe the passing of time together.
Are you there tears upon your face?
Questioning the emotional state of the other person, possibly due to sadness.
No one can see because of the pouring rain.
Conditions hindering visibility, symbolic of obstacles or challenges.
I'm still here waiting trying to sedate,
Remaining present and attempting to alleviate pain or distress through sedation.
Passing the time by numbing the pain away.
Passing time by numbing emotional pain, possibly through coping mechanisms.
So hold on until I'm gone,
Encouraging persistence until the speaker is no longer present.
When I get there I'll take you along.
Reiterating the promise to bring the other person along once a certain point is reached.
We'll hide away from the rest of the world someday.
Desiring a future retreat from the challenges of the world.
Underneath eternal skies as we watch the days go by.
Imagining a timeless space to share while observing the passage of time.
There never was any sort of closure,
Reflecting on the absence of closure in a situation or relationship.
So I kept increasing the dosage.
Increasing reliance on medication as a means of coping with the lack of closure.
My only option to feel now,
Expressing limited options for emotional experience, with medication being the primary avenue.
Is finding my way back to you somehow.
Searching for a way to reconnect emotionally with the other person.
We'll hide away from the rest of the world someday.
Reiterating the desire for future seclusion from the challenges of the world.
Underneath eternal skies as we watch the days go by.
Imagining a timeless space to share while observing the passage of time (repeated).
