Time
Time's Betrayal: Unveiling the Painful Decay of Memories
Lyrics
Take away all that you're betrayed
Expressing a sense of betrayal, requesting the removal of everything that has been betrayed.
Feel my pain and know that you're to blame
Asking the listener to feel the pain and acknowledging their responsibility for it.
And I will not regret through all these years you've taken
Committing to not regret despite the years of losses and damage caused by the listener.
What was pure and left stained And I will not look back upon
Reflecting on the loss of purity and the enduring stain caused by the listener.
And I will not look back upon the part of me that lives
Refusing to look back at the part of oneself affected by the listener's actions.
Where all that we once were has decayed and it brings me down
Acknowledging the decay of what they once were and feeling the emotional weight of it.
So I want out I've got to try to leave the past behind
Expressing a desire to break free from the negative past.
But I've got no time
Feeling a lack of time to address or escape from the past.
Now we sit and watch the bridges burn
Observing the destruction of relationships symbolized by burning bridges.
We live in shame but still we never learn
Living in shame but acknowledging a failure to learn from past mistakes.
Your memory lies frozen in my mind
Noting the persistent presence of the listener's memory in their mind.
But thats just fine
Accepting the frozen state of the memory and expressing contentment with it.
And if I try to turn back time
Contemplating the idea of turning back time and the consequences of doing so.
The past comes back and slaps me in the face
Anticipating negative consequences if an attempt is made to revisit the past.
I can't erase all of my mistakes
Admitting the inability to erase or undo past mistakes.
And it brings me down so I want out
Reiterating the emotional burden and the desire to break free from it.
I've got to try to leave the past behind
Expressing the need to leave the past behind but facing a constraint of time.
But I've got no time
Reiterating the lack of time to deal with or escape from the past.
Can't erase
Emphasizing the inability to erase certain aspects of the past.
Can't erase
Repeating the theme of being unable to erase elements from the past.
Can't erase
Continuing the emphasis on the impossibility of erasing certain past experiences.
Can't erase
Reiterating the frustration of being unable to erase specific memories or events.
Mother fucker Time!
Angrily addressing the concept of time as a factor in their struggles.
Give it back
Demanding the return of something lost or taken by time.
Give it back
Repeating the demand to give back what has been taken away by time.
