Bigger Cages, Longer Chains
Breaking Chains of Conformity: A Rebellion Against Empty Promises
Lyrics
Hold me down - 'cause I don`t want to wait
Expressing a desire to be restrained or held down, metaphorically not wanting to wait.
I've been blackmailed by myself into this state
Feeling compelled or pressured by one's own actions into a particular state or situation.
Shut it up - 'cause I don`t want to hear
Requesting to silence external influences, rejecting outdated moral principles.
These old boring ethics must end right here
Rejecting traditional and dull ethical values, advocating for change.
Hold me down - 'cause I don`t want to be
Expressing a desire to avoid becoming a victim of a constraining salvation.
Another victim of salvation that's choking me
Rejecting being trapped by redemptive forces that stifle personal freedom.
Set it off - 'cause I've had enough
Expressing frustration and a desire to break free from the current situation.
So please please please yeah baby shut up
Pleading for silence and an end to the current state of affairs.
Consider me consider this
Requesting consideration, possibly for personal perspectives or feelings.
Empty phrases kissing on emptiness
Criticizing superficial or meaningless expressions, emphasizing emptiness.
Hold me down - 'cause I don`t want to wait
Reiterating the desire not to wait, particularly for an ineffective unemployment plan.
For some lame unemployment plan to set it straight
Rejecting reliance on a weak plan and seeking immediate action.
Shut it up - 'cause I don`t want to hear
Requesting to avoid discussions about redemption and fears.
About prospects of redemption by the things we fear
Rejecting the idea of redemption based on fearful circumstances.
Hold me down - 'cause I don`t want to go
Expressing reluctance to move forward, perceiving a backward or stagnant situation.
Things are moving backwards baby or not at all
Commenting on the lack of progress or movement, whether positive or negative.
Set it off - 'cause this is killing me
Declaring that the current situation is causing harm or distress.
Just waiting for something that will set us free for real
Waiting for a change that will genuinely bring freedom.
Consider me consider this
Repeating the call for consideration, emphasizing the emptiness of spoken words.
Empty phrases kissing on emptiness
Reiterating the criticism of shallow expressions lacking substance.
You see now baby this fire turns to flames
Describing a transformation from passion to destructive flames.
And I kept hoping that things they would change
Expressing initial hope for change but realizing it hasn't occurred.
But now I see what they are offering me
Realizing that the offered solutions are just more restrictive and confining.
Are just bigger cages and longer chains
Concluding that the proposed changes are merely larger constraints and extended limitations.
