Vultures
Desolation's Echo: Stomped Out's Vultures Unveiled
Lyrics
My mind is in withdrawal
Experiencing a mental withdrawal or distress.
Between two pillars of
Feeling caught between two states of mind or situations.
Oblivion and resignation
Being torn between forgetting and accepting.
Im torn apart between the two
Feeling emotionally torn amidst conflicting choices.
As I try to reconcile what happened
Struggling to understand and accept past events.
Between me and you
Reflecting on a troubled relationship or encounter.
How could you press me?
Questioning someone's actions and pressure.
How could you try to pursue?
Expressing disbelief at someone's pursuit.
After under that mask you saw
Acknowledging a concealed sense of fear and desperation.
That languid mix of fear and desperation
Referring to a negative final action as a violation.
Your final act was my desecration
Rejecting physical contact and emotional invasion.
Don't you touch me
Strongly rejecting physical touch.
I don't want to feel your breath
Rejecting any connection or intimacy.
Don't fucking touch me
Emphasizing the prohibition of physical contact.
And open a wound that can't be healed again, no
Refusing to reopen emotional wounds.
How many of those that came before me did you sink your claws into?
Questioning the extent of past emotional manipulation.
How many of those that came before me did you leave to rot in the sun?
Questioning the impact of past actions on others.
How many of those that came before me did you prostrate at your feet?
Reflecting on the manipulation and control exerted.
How many of those that came before me did you leave in the cold?
Considering the emotional abandonment of others.
I could not breathe
Expressing suffocation or emotional distress.
Until I knew that you weren't breathing
Expressing relief at the absence of the other person.
I couldn't sleep, I couldn't be
Describing the inability to function due to emotional pain.
I could not breathe
Reiterating the emotional suffocation experienced.
Until I knew that you weren't breathing
Reiterating relief at the other person's absence.
I couldn't eat, I couldn't be
Describing the impact of emotional pain on basic needs.
You ruined me
Expressing a sense of personal destruction.
You could not atone for this sin
Stating that the other person cannot make amends.
I'm now disgusted with myself
Expressing self-disgust and negative self-perception.
I hate everything I am
Expressing a strong dislike for one's own identity.
