Lyrics
You break the man, leave its shell on the ground,
You've shattered someone's spirit, leaving their discarded body behind.
What have you done with your own lies, your words
What impact have your falsehoods and deceit had on yourself and your speech?
Shed everything on you, speak everything I’ve seen
I've revealed everything about myself to you and described all that I've witnessed.
So kill your jealousy and watch you bleed.
To overcome envy, you need to confront it and witness its consequences.
You can’t destroy them, the beauty and the youth.
Those elements of beauty and youth cannot be obliterated.
You’ll never be them, you never had the truth.
You will never embody those qualities as you've never embraced the truth.
I lay down with the beasts on the ground
I've immersed myself with the most base and primal aspects of existence.
The prophets cry in every tear I pray for ever
There's a pervasive sadness expressed by those with foresight in every prayer I offer for eternity.
Shed everything on you, speak everything I’ve seen
I've shared all of myself with you and recounted all that I've experienced.
So kill your jealousy and watch you still believe.
To overcome envy, you need to confront it and witness that it still persists despite.
You can’t destroy them, the beauty and the youth.
Beauty and youth are indestructible.
You’ll never be them, you never had the truth.
You'll never embody those qualities because you've never embraced the truth.
Destroy, destroy, destroy it all.
There's a call for destruction, though the reason behind it is unclear.
Why I don’t understand.
There's confusion about the rationale behind the destruction.
Why you destroy everything
Questioning why you destroy everything that's so inherently beautiful.
so beautiful in your hands.
Highlighting how you ruin everything that's wonderful when it's in your possession.
Come home.
An invitation to return to a place of belonging or safety.
And hate strips it away
Hate erodes or removes something integral.
The ‘yes’ inside the men
The affirmation within people is corrupted or taken away.
But we’ve a golden loose
Despite the loss, there's still something valuable or precious left.
And hang you from the stars.
A desire to elevate and then condemn you, metaphorically hanging you from the stars.
