Science
Struggle and Resilience: Echoes of Inner Turmoil
Lyrics
Make you up, take you out
Creating an illusion or persona, taking someone out.
Play it up to bring you down
Acting in a way to build up, only to later bring down.
Take the time to make this last
Investing time to make a relationship or experience last.
Spin the wheel, watch it crash
Taking a chance, witnessing failure or disaster.
Turn the dress to broken glass
Transforming something beautiful into a shattered state.
Strike a pose and hold the flash
Pretending for an image, capturing it with a flash.
I'm not the only one who's bleeding
Expressing shared pain or vulnerability.
Before the past is done repeating
Concern about history repeating itself.
Gets underneath my skin, it won't die
Anxiety or irritation getting under one's skin.
This time if I can't win
If unable to succeed this time.
Then I won't try to carry on
If unsuccessful, refusing to persist.
I'll play it satirical
Approaching the situation with sarcasm or irony.
Tonight won't be so long
Expecting a short duration for the current difficulty.
I'll pray for a miracle
Hoping for an extraordinary solution or outcome.
Wake you up, pull you out
Similar to line #1, waking someone up, pulling them out.
Talk you up to calm you down
Talking someone up to calm them down.
Turn it up and scream and shout
Amplifying emotions, expressing loudly.
Make you tired, wear you out
Inducing fatigue or exhaustion in someone.
Shut you up and turn you off
Silencing someone and shutting them off.
Clean you up and take you home
Cleaning someone up and escorting them home.
I'm not the only one who's bleeding
Reiterating shared pain or vulnerability.
Before the past is done repeating
Concern about the repetition of past experiences.
Gets underneath my skin, it won't die
Anxiety or irritation persisting and not fading away.
This time if I can't win
If success is not achievable this time.
Then I won't try to carry on
If unsuccessful, refusing to persist (similar to line #14).
I'll play it satirical
Approaching the situation with sarcasm or irony (similar to line #15).
Tonight won't be so long
Expecting a short duration for the current difficulty (similar to line #16).
I'll pray for a miracle
Hoping for an extraordinary solution or outcome (similar to line #17).
