By My Side
Contemplating the Abyss: End of Worlds and Relationships
Lyrics
The things that run in my blood
The aspects deeply ingrained in my nature
I just gave up so fast
I gave up quickly and easily
I've got nothing left to give
I have nothing remaining to offer
Secrets don't keep themselves
Information or truths cannot hide on their own
I'm sick of hiding the answer
I am tired of concealing the solution
From the question here
From the question that is present
What did I find in my head had no conviction
What I discovered in my thoughts lacked conviction
And the fire that had gone out
The passion or enthusiasm that has faded away
That lit up when the radio signal went out
That ignited when the radio signal disappeared
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a moment of catastrophic proportions?
I can't tell, it's been like this so long
I'm uncertain; it has been like this for a prolonged period
Is this still you by my side?
Is this still you beside me?
I can't decide if you were here at all
I cannot determine if you were ever present
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a critical juncture in existence?
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a pivotal moment in time?
Let's look back
Let's reflect on the past
I can't remember when the last time
I cannot recall when was the last time
Anything I said meant anything
Any statement I made held significance
But things change, things change
However, circumstances evolve
Things change just as I slipped
Changes occur just as I fell
Into the gaps between reception bars
Into the spaces between signal bars
And I found myself wanting
And I found myself desiring
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a moment of catastrophic proportions?
I can't tell, it's been like this so long
I'm uncertain; it has been like this for a prolonged period
Is this still you by my side?
Is this still you beside me?
I can't decide if you were here at all
I cannot determine if you were ever present
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a critical juncture in existence?
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a pivotal moment in time?
Don't look back and set traps
Do not dwell on the past and create obstacles
For myself to keep me on track
For myself to stay on the right path
Don't backtrack, realize that
Do not go back; understand that
The best defense is attack
The most effective defense is to be proactive
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a moment of catastrophic proportions?
I can't tell, it's been like this so long
I'm uncertain; it has been like this for a prolonged period
Is this still you by my side?
Is this still you beside me?
I can't decide if you were here at all
I cannot determine if you were ever present
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a critical juncture in existence?
Is this the end of the world?
Is this a pivotal moment in time?
