Boiled Nails
Defiance and Desolation: Unveiling the Brutal Truth in Tear Out The Heart's 'Boiled Nails'
Lyrics
If there’s one thing I HATE, it's the feeling of being ignored.
The speaker despises the sensation of being ignored.
Now everyone is an enemy to push past.
The speaker now regards everyone as adversaries to overcome.
I knew your punk ass wouldn't last.
The speaker expresses doubt about the endurance of someone they consider weak.
Everything you live for will one day DIE.
A general statement emphasizing the impermanence of everything one values.
You better hope that you never fucking see me again.
A warning, suggesting negative consequences if the speaker and the listener cross paths again.
You're nothing more than a WASTE of my time.
The listener is deemed insignificant, a waste of the speaker's time.
I've made it this far.
The speaker highlights personal resilience, having overcome challenges to reach the current point.
I can make it anywhere without you.
The speaker asserts independence, stating the ability to succeed without the presence of the listener.
This is what it comes down to.
A declaration that the current situation is a result of past actions or choices.
Out of all the things I've seen, it's an industry of suits and cheap stabs.
An observation about the music industry characterized by formal attire and deceitful actions.
We bit the hand that feeds.
A rebellion against those who support or provide for the speaker.
Now we're STUCK HERE, begging for table scraps.
The speaker feels trapped and in a disadvantaged position, seeking meager support.
Everyone’s an ENEMY.
A repetition of the idea that everyone is considered an adversary.
I knew you wouldn't last.
Reiteration of skepticism regarding the endurance of someone perceived as weak.
EVERYTHING YOU LIVE FOR IS STILL GONNA FUCKING DIE.
A reaffirmation of the transient nature of everything one values.
