Lyrics

It was cold and dark

Describing a setting of cold and darkness.

I seemed very out of place

Feeling out of place in the environment.

I felt my legs get weak

Sensations of physical weakness.

And the wall's start to shake

Suggesting a disturbance as walls shake.


But anxiety is setting in

Expressing the onset of anxiety.

The leaves were growing, hands pulling my skin

Imagery of leaves growing and hands causing discomfort.

And that's when I put my hands around

Seeking comfort by holding onto something meaningful.

The only thing that made sense

The identified source of comfort.


We're on our own

Emphasizing self-reliance.

So, here's the news, we've been set up and

Realization of being deceived and a glimpse of consequences.

I caught a glimpse of what's to come

-

I guess that we should have known

-

We're on our own

Repetition of the theme of being on one's own and the consequences of being set up.

So, here's the news, we've been set up and

-

I caught a glimpse of what's to come

-

I guess that we should have known

-

It's so unjust it seems

Expressing a sense of injustice and lack of understanding.

That I can't see what you see

Acknowledging a perspective difference.

And I found the cancer still alive

Metaphorical reference to a persistent problem (cancer).


It's coursing through our veins

Symbolizing a pervasive negative influence.

We'll never be the same and that's why

Conveying irreversible change due to the negative influence.

I put my hands around the only thing that made sense

Reiterating the comforting gesture in the face of adversity.


We're on our own

Repeating the theme of being set up and the consequences of not knowing.

So, here's the news, we've been set up and

-

I caught a glimpse of what's to come

-

I guess that we should have known

-

We're on our own

Continuation of the consequences and realization of being on one's own.

So, here's the news, we've been set up and

-

I caught a glimpse of what's to come

-

I guess that we should have known

-

I guess that we should have known

Reflecting on the hindsight of not knowing and being alone.

I guess that we're on our own

-

We're on our own

Repeating the cycle of realization and consequences.

So, here's the news, we've been set up and

-

I caught a glimpse of what's to come

-

I guess that we should have known

-

We're on our own

Affirming the theme of self-reliance and a sense of being unwanted.

We're on our own

-

They never wanted, wanted us to know
