This Is Not My Ideal Way to Spend an Evening, Shacked Up Telling Ghost Stories to the Martyr.
Unveiling Shadows: A Journey through Severed Limbs and Undying Beauty
Lyrics
I have severed several limbs
I have intentionally removed parts of myself.
In hope that theory wins
I did this with the hope that a particular idea or belief would triumph.
If you can't walk and you can't talk you'll commit no sins
If one is incapacitated in both movement and speech, they won't engage in wrongdoing.
I have severed several limbs
Reiteration of intentionally removing parts of oneself.
In hope that theory wins
Reiteration with the same hope of a theory prevailing.
If you can't walk and you can't talk you'll commit no sins
Reiteration of the idea that a lack of mobility and speech prevents sin.
My eyes will turn to grey and lead me the same way
My eyes will lose color and guide me in the same direction.
To my knees where I fall for every word you say
I will kneel and submit to every word you speak.
My eyes will turn to grey and lead me the same way
Repetition of eyes turning grey and following a certain path.
To my knees where I fall for every word you say
Repetition of submission to spoken words.
I'm standing all alone again
I find myself isolated once again.
Led blindfolded to war again
Blindly led into a warlike situation again.
Lets take a bow
Let's acknowledge and appreciate.
Are these nails a falling grace
Are these difficulties a form of descending grace?
Lets all inhale undying beauty
Collectively appreciate eternal beauty.
I'll take a bow
Expressing gratitude and acknowledgment.
Are these nails a falling grace
Questioning if challenges are a form of falling grace.
Lets all inhale undying beauty
Encouraging appreciation of enduring beauty.
I'll take the bow
Expressing personal acknowledgment.
I haven't seen your outline on the horizon lately
Noticing the absence of someone on the horizon multiple times.
I haven't seen your outline on the horizon lately
-I haven't seen your outline on the horizon lately
-I haven't seen your outline on the horizon lately
-I haven't seen your outline on the horizon lately
-I haven'y seen your outline on the horizon lately
-Your eyes have discarded beauty this razor will restore it
Stating that the removal of beauty from one's eyes can be reversed with a razor.
Your eyes have discarded beauty this razor will restore it
Reiteration of restoring discarded beauty with a razor.
Be there for me like I was there for you
Requesting reciprocity in being there for each other.
Be there for me like I was there for you
-She falls asleep to the sound of angels crying
Describing someone falling asleep to the contrasting sounds of angels crying and ribs cracking.
She falls asleep to the sound of ribs cracking
-She falls asleep to the sound of angels crying
-She falls asleep to the sound of ribs cracking
-I will not follow trend
Declaring a refusal to follow trends.
I will not die on my knees
Asserting a determination not to die in a submissive position.
Lets all stitch our
Suggesting a collective action of connecting internal selves to tall trees.
Insides to the
-Tallest of trees
-I worship no god
Expressing a lack of devotion to any deity.
