This Is Old
Life's Wearied Echoes: A Sullen Reflection
Lyrics
Beaten down for so many years
Feeling defeated and worn out over many years.
It's just a job but that never finds an end
Referring to a job that seems endless and never-ending.
Drained and drunk
Experiencing exhaustion and intoxication.
Can never give it up
Unable to quit or give up despite challenges.
Sell off your friends
Suggesting a willingness to betray or sacrifice friendships for personal gain.
Wake up and do it all again
Repeating the cycle of waking up and facing the same challenges again.
I hate all that I've become
Expressing dislike for one's current self.
and I hate every part of you
Expressing dislike for someone else.
I've tried to drop out of this life
Attempting to escape or detach from the current lifestyle.
and abandon this divide
Wanting to leave behind a divisive situation.
This is old, this is getting old
Stating that the current situation is old and becoming tiresome.
Come down off your ladder
Encouraging someone to come down from a position of superiority.
Leave it standing up to nowhere
Suggesting that the elevated position leads nowhere.
Drained and drunk
Reiterating feelings of exhaustion and intoxication.
Can never give it up
Continuing the struggle despite the difficulties.
Beneath this all
Implying that beneath the surface, there is something waiting to happen.
Wait for you to fall
Anticipating a downfall or failure.
It's too late to turn back now
Feeling that it's too late to change or reverse course.
I'm much too old to break now
Feeling too old and set in one's ways to break free.
I hate all that I've become
Reiterating dislike for the current self.
and I hate every part of you
Reiterating dislike for someone else.
I've tried to drop out of this life
Expressing past attempts to escape the current lifestyle.
and abandon this divide
Desiring to leave behind a divisive situation.
This is old, this is getting old
Repeating that the current situation is old and becoming tiresome.
The rope is so tightly wrapped around my neck
Feeling trapped or restricted, with challenges symbolized by a tight rope around the neck.
I have nothing left to fight
Feeling depleted and lacking the strength to continue the fight.
This is old, this is getting old
Reiterating that the current situation is old and becoming tiresome.
The finest things in life I will always refuse
Choosing to reject the best things in life.
The worst things in life I will always abuse
Choosing to exploit or mistreat the worst things in life.
