Lyrics
No you can't throw failure over your shoulder
Failure cannot be easily dismissed or ignored; it lingers and affects you.
If you don't look after - you gonna look back
If you neglect dealing with failure, it will become a regret when you reflect on the past.
No you can't hurry forward, it's holding you back
You cannot rush into the future; unresolved issues from the past hinder progress.
In the grip of an onset you run for a cover
Caught in the beginning of a problem, seeking refuge or protection.
To hide from your mother and your sister, your brother
Attempting to avoid facing familial relationships by hiding.
Through you long to tell of the stone that remains
Desire to express a significant, enduring aspect of oneself.
You can't move a muscle
Feeling immobilized or stuck, unable to make any progress.
You're wrapped up in chains
Constricted or restrained by various challenges or burdens.
So you wait in your room - bound to the doom
Waiting in anticipation, possibly feeling destined for an unfortunate outcome.
To talk with the skeleton in the closet
Confronting hidden, unresolved issues from the past.
So you waited for days
Experiencing a prolonged period of waiting and uncertainty.
And you walked in the maze and you lay on your bed
Navigating through a confusing and challenging situation.
With your head in a daze
Feeling mentally disoriented or confused.
And high in a corner in a cupboard on a shelf
Discovering something significant about oneself, stored away but not forgotten.
You turn a corner and walk into yourself
Taking a moment for introspection and self-discovery.
And you check your condition
Reflecting on personal well-being and mental state.
And your shape and your health
Evaluating one's physical and mental condition.
So you open the door with a look on your face,
Approaching a situation with a noticeable expression, ready to confront.
Your hands in your pockets and your family to face
Facing family members with a contemplative demeanor and hands in pockets.
And you go downstairs and you sit in your place
Descending to a familiar place, possibly to confront and address family issues.
