Dying Inside
Echoes of Despair: A Poignant Tale in 'Dying Inside'
Lyrics
Terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
Expressing the sorrow and gravity of the situation
To see her dying
Witnessing someone deteriorating or suffering
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
Reiterating the intense sadness of the situation
To see her dying, inside, to see her dying
Reemphasizing the pain of observing someone deteriorate emotionally
Won't you come out a play the games we played
Inviting someone to engage in past activities together
Won't you speak out, and say the things you'd say
Encouraging someone to express themselves honestly
The lady loved her gold, the lady lost her soul
Describing someone's attachment to material possessions
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
Reiterating the profound sadness of the situation
To see her dying
Reiterating the pain of witnessing someone deteriorate
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
Reemphasizing the intense emotional distress of the situation
To see her dying, inside, to see her dying
Highlighting the inner emotional struggle of the person
Do you remember, the things we used to do
Asking if someone remembers past shared experiences
Do you remember, the way it was for you
Asking if someone remembers how things used to be
The lady loved her gold, the lady lost her soul
Reiterating the attachment to material possessions leading to a loss of self
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
Reiterating the profound sorrow and despair of the situation
To see her dying
Reiterating the pain of witnessing someone deteriorate
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
Reemphasizing the deep emotional anguish of the situation
To see her dying, inside, to see her dying
Highlighting the inner emotional turmoil of the person
La ah, la ah, la ah
