Dead Inside
Embracing Emptiness: The Journey of Inner Void
Lyrics
Everything happens for a reason
Expressing the belief that events have a purpose or cause.
Such a stupid thing to say
Criticizing the cliché expression "Everything happens for a reason" as foolish.
I don't attack what you believe in
Stating a refusal to criticize or challenge someone's beliefs.
Or ask about the price you had to pay
Declaring a lack of interest in knowing the personal cost someone paid for their beliefs.
I can't remember when it happened
Expressing difficulty recalling when a significant change occurred.
I know I used to be alive
Acknowledging a past state of being alive.
I guess my ass just got a slappin'
Suggesting a sudden negative turn of events or consequences ("ass got a slappin'").
And everything inside me died
Conveying a feeling of inner death or emotional numbness.
You don't wanna know
Expressing a desire to keep a personal struggle hidden.
And I don't want you to find out
Preferring to keep personal difficulties concealed.
What I'm going through
Asserting that the internal struggle doesn't need additional attention.
Doesn't need another shout out
Rejecting the idea of seeking external validation or acknowledgment for personal challenges.
Nothing really matters
Expressing a nihilistic view that nothing has inherent importance.
And I'm never gonna cry
Claiming an emotional detachment, refusing to cry.
I'm already dead inside
Affirming a state of emotional deadness or numbness.
Yeah I remember being happy
Recalling a past state of happiness.
And how I used to smile
Reflecting on a time when smiling was common.
But now that everything is crappy
Describing the current situation as universally unpleasant.
That hasn't happened for awhile
Not experiencing positive emotions for an extended period.
But now I worry about nothing
Expressing a lack of concern or anxiety about anything.
Oh yeah, I barely even try
Claiming minimal effort in facing challenges or problems.
I ain't fakin', I ain't bluffin'
Emphasizing sincerity and lack of deception.
I'm telling you I'm dead inside
Reiterating the internal state of being emotionally dead.
Nothing left to lose and nothing to hide
Stating a lack of possessions or personal connections that can be lost.
Yeah I'm dead inside
Reaffirming the emotional deadness or numbness.
And now I worry about nothing
Repeating a lack of concern or worry about anything.
Yeah I barely even try
Emphasizing minimal effort in dealing with life's challenges.
No I ain't faking, I ain't bluffing
Reiterating sincerity and lack of deception in emotional expression.
I'm telling you I'm dead inside
Affirming the persistent state of emotional deadness or numbness.
