Loaded
Navigating Shadows: The Inner Struggle in 'Loaded' by The Great Fight
Lyrics
Would you run
Contemplating the idea of running away
Would cower in the city streets on impulse
Considering hiding in the city streets impulsively
If I asked for you to stay with me
Questioning if the listener would stay if asked
I'm a gun and I'm loaded
Describing oneself as a loaded gun, ready to act
Ready to go off on impulse
Expressing readiness to explode impulsively
Another day or so and I'll be gone
Indicating an imminent departure within a day or so
I know as the seasons fade away
Reflecting on the changing seasons and the enduring nature of a person's face in memory
All these places, they will change
Suggesting that physical places change while memories remain constant
But your face remains the same inside my mind
Highlighting the persistence of the listener's face in the singer's mind
Can you guide a better way
Seeking guidance for a better path
Can you help me find my place
Asking for assistance in finding one's place
Can you show me how to live my life more calmly
Requesting guidance on living life more calmly
Can you light a brighter way
Seeking illumination for a brighter life path
Can you help me deal with change
Asking for help in dealing with change
Can you show me how to live my life more peacefully
Requesting guidance on living life more peacefully
Is it fun
Questioning if certain actions are enjoyable
When you crawl under my sheets into my bed
Reflecting on intimacy and potential chaos in a relationship
When you make a mess inside my head
Describing emotional turmoil caused by someone's actions
Am I gone
Wondering if the singer has disappeared emotionally
Have I faded to the darkest shade of grey
Contemplating a shift to a darker emotional state
Or is there something else that still remains
Questioning if anything positive remains
I know as the seasons come and go
Acknowledging the cyclical nature of seasons and the unknown future
I'll be faced with the unknown
Anticipating facing unknown challenges
But your voice will always play inside my mind
Emphasizing the enduring impact of a familiar voice in the singer's mind
Can you guide a better way
Reiterating the need for guidance on a better path
Can you help me find my place
Asking for help in finding one's place in life
Can you show me how to live my life more calmly
Seeking advice on living a more calm life
Can you light a brighter way
Requesting illumination for a brighter life path
Can you help me deal with change
Asking for assistance in coping with change
Can you show me how to live my life more peacefully
Seeking guidance on living life more peacefully
I think there's something still inside of me
Expressing a belief in an unresolved internal struggle
An explanation as to why this is happening
Desiring an explanation for ongoing challenges
'Cause I'm always coming up short
Acknowledging a recurring sense of falling short
If I gave it a rest, put myself to the test
Contemplating the possibility of finding success by testing oneself
Could I find fight my way through the war inside my head
Considering fighting through internal struggles and conflicts
'Cause I'm always coming up short
Expressing a persistent sense of falling short
