Let's Call It Bliss
Navigating Shadows: Unveiling the Dark Poetry of 'Let's Call It Bliss' by Subliminal Sex
Lyrics
Been sitting in the dark
Feeling isolated and in the dark, possibly emotionally.
Just waiting for that spark
Anticipating a positive change or inspiration.
The words I wanna hear
Longing for specific words or expressions from someone.
Been thinking awful things
Contemplating negative thoughts.
In visions, dreams
Reflecting on thoughts and scenarios in dreams.
Things you'd say
Recalling things the person would say.
You've told me off before
Previous instances of being criticized or scolded.
I'm not sure why I'm here
Uncertain about the purpose or reason for being in a situation.
I don't wanna die
Expressing a desire to live, a plea for survival.
Just wanna disappear
Yearning to escape or avoid existence rather than death.
I've been living life too sick to carry on and yet
Feeling physically and emotionally unwell, unable to continue.
I've convinced myself that I wanted this
Convincing oneself of a desire for a difficult situation.
Wishing upon myself such a vicious hell
Wishing for a harsh, self-inflicted suffering.
Let's just call it bliss
Suggesting that the suffering is labeled as "bliss" sarcastically.
Been wasting so much life
Wasting time and opportunities in life.
Thinking back on times
Reflecting on past experiences not fulfilled.
I've never carried through
Failure to follow through on intentions or plans.
Memories in glass
Recollection of unrealized memories, fragile like glass.
That never came to pass
Dreams or aspirations that never materialized.
I feel so consumed
Feeling overwhelmed or controlled by these unfulfilled experiences.
You've told me this before
Repeating previous criticisms or reprimands.
I'm not sure why I'm here
Uncertain about the purpose or reason for being in a situation, echoing line 8.
If this is how I die
If the current situation is the cause of death, a desire for it to end.
I'll surely disappear
Expressing a wish to fade away or cease to exist.
I've been living life too sick to carry on and yet
Reiterating the physical and emotional struggles in life.
I've convinced myself that I wanted this
Reaffirming the self-convincing of desiring a difficult situation.
Wishing upon myself such a vicious hell
Repeating the wish for self-inflicted suffering.
Let's just call it bliss
Reiterating the sarcastic labeling of suffering as "bliss."
