Lyrics
There's no open door
There is no easy access or welcoming opportunity.
No refuge or compassion, now I'm faded
There is no sanctuary or empathy, and the speaker feels depleted.
Burning ash and severed lungs
There is destruction and severe damage to the respiratory system.
Can't wade through the dregs
The speaker struggles to navigate through the undesirable remnants.
And egregious waste
There is a noticeable and shocking amount of wastefulness.
Somewhere on the earth
On some part of the Earth, there are ominous skies adorned with gold.
Are dark skies of gold
(Still breathing) - Despite challenges, the speaker endures.
(Still breathing)
The speaker is alive in this world.
Living in this world
The speaker constantly battles internal struggles.
I'm always fighting the War Within
The ongoing internal conflict is referred to as the "War Within."
We're never gonna be enough
No matter what, the speaker feels inadequate.
We're never gonna take the bluff
The speaker won't deceive or pretend.
We're only gonna be pushed around with burden until we're breathless
The burden and challenges persist until exhaustion.
Wipe out, take me, fall out, two times, no start
Expressing a desire to be wiped out or taken away, perhaps due to hardship.
Don't consolidate me again
Requesting not to be brought together or unified again.
I'm not looking for the the future me
The speaker is not seeking the version of themselves in the future.
'Cause there'll be nothing to take their place
There won't be anything to replace the current state of affairs.
Lets forget time and repeat again
Suggesting a desire to forget the past and repeat it.
Taking the power off my head
Taking control and authority away from the speaker's thoughts.
Holding facets that we already know
Understanding aspects that are already familiar.
The feeling over me
An emotion is overwhelming the speaker.
Just doesn't seem to have the hold
The emotion doesn't seem to have a firm grip or control.
Once again the mindless virtues feel weak
Once again, virtues without thought or reasoning seem feeble.
The sun doesn't peak and I deserve to be left in the cold
The speaker feels abandoned, and there is a metaphorical coldness.
Taking the power over me
External influences take control over the speaker's thoughts.
Feeling the changes I can't see
The speaker is experiencing changes that are not visually apparent.
Taking the peace away from me
Peace is being forcibly taken away from the speaker.
And nothing more
Nothing more is left.
We're never gonna be enough
Reiteration of the feeling of inadequacy.
We're never gonna take the bluff
Reiteration of the refusal to deceive or pretend.
We're only gonna be pushed around with burden until we're breathless
Challenges persist until complete exhaustion.
Once again the mindless virtues feel weak
Repetition of the idea that virtues without thought are weak.
The sun doesn't peak, I've lost the power in me
The sun doesn't rise, and the speaker feels powerless.
Burning earth and severed lungs, can't wade through the dregs
There is destruction and severe damage to the respiratory system once again.
Push me to the end
Being pushed to the limit.
Take me
An expression of surrender or acceptance of a fate.
To my fucking end
Explicitly stating a desire for an end.
