These Sticks
Heartbound Echoes: Unveiling the Depths of Desire in 'These Sticks'
Lyrics
From shallow breathing
Beginning to experience a lack of deep breaths, possibly due to stress or anxiety
A different storm begins
A new, intense situation or conflict is emerging
Misplaced your feelings?
Have you lost touch with your emotions or misplaced their importance?
Well, that ain't your problem now
However, that's not your concern or responsibility anymore
You thought me easy
You believed I was easily manipulated
And ripe for punishing the dead
And ready to be punished, even after death
Can't stop the bleeding
Unable to halt the emotional pain
It all starts coming round again
The cycle of pain and difficulties starts repeating itself
Tie these sticks around my heart
Use symbolic measures to protect my emotions
Be here when it blows apart
Stay with me when everything falls apart
This ain't love but let's pretend
This isn't love, but let's pretend it is
That it's easy, easy
It might seem easy to pretend and forget
To forget
In dreams you're hunted,
In dreams, feeling pursued or chased
Around and round we go
We keep going in circles
And this is why we're coming,
This is the reason for our arrival
And this is how you'll know
And this is how you'll recognize it
If I seem impatient
If I seem eager, you won't have to wait long
You won't be waiting long, my friend
Tie these sticks around my heart
-Be here when it blows apart
-This ain't love but let's pretend
-That it's easy, easy
-Baby
An affectionate term used, possibly to ease tension or emphasize
Once I fell in your remand
Once, I was under your control or authority
Spent so where I could not stand
Spent time in a place where I was incapacitated
Bent to suffer at your hand,
Twisted and endured suffering at your direction
Your command
Your orders or dominance
You thought me easy
You believed I was easily manipulated
You thought me prey
You saw me as your prey
I've come to meet you
I've arrived to confront you
I've come to make you pay
I've come to make you face consequences or suffer the price
