Eventide
Embracing Shadows: Navigating the Turmoil Within Through Lucidia's 'Eventide'
Lyrics
Dark feelings rise, with the night again
Expressing the emergence of negative emotions as night falls
One step away, from a war within
Being on the brink of internal conflict or emotional turmoil
Mistaken words, I cannot speak
Struggling with words, possibly due to emotional distress
I cannot breath, I cannot see
Feeling constrained, unable to breathe or see clearly
Keep the excuse, shades of who you are
Preserving excuses, maintaining a facade of one's true self
Reach for the truth, it feels so far
Aspiring for truth, but it seems distant and challenging
Can't fight the war, inside my mind
Battling inner conflicts within the mind
Inside my soul, inside my heart
Struggling within the soul and heart
Illusion of the mind
Referencing an illusory state of the mind
It breaks the truth inside
This illusion shatters the truth within
Look to the eventide
Directing attention towards the eventide (evening)
Veil to the otherside
Reference to a veil or barrier to another realm
When the silence, fades into the sky
Describing the transition from silence to the sky
And the nightmare, becomes a bird in flight
Nightmare transforms into freedom or release
Will I see you, in this ashen light
Questioning if the person will be seen in difficult times
Can I fight this, overwhelming night
Contemplating the ability to overcome overwhelming darkness
Look through the lens, see the story end
Suggesting observing the conclusion of a story
They've come to break your will again
External forces attempting to break one's will
No more restraint, no more to take
Emphasizing the absence of restraint and things to lose
Nothing more to break, no one left to hate
Reaching a point of no return, devoid of hatred
Cling to your words, to find your escape
Advising to hold onto words for escape
Reach for the past, a fleeting fate
Reaching for a fleeting destiny from the past
Toy with a world, that cannot heal
Playing with a world that cannot recover or feel
That cannot feel, that will never be real
Highlighting the unreality and lack of emotions
Are shadows turning, inside of my mind
Inner shadows intensifying, possibly representing struggles
They become one with the night
Merging with the night, symbolic of embracing darkness
When the silence, fades into the sky
Repetition of the transition from silence to the sky
And the nightmare, becomes a bird in flight
Nightmare transforming into a liberated state
Will I see you, in this ashen Light
Questioning the visibility of someone in challenging times
Can I fight this, overwhelming night
Questioning the ability to confront overwhelming darkness
Let me reach
Repeated plea for reaching or attaining something
Let me reach
-Let me reach
-Can I become what I need for this healing
Asking if one can transform to facilitate healing
Can I see light when I feel only darkness
Exploring the possibility of finding light in darkness
Are shadows turning, inside of my mind
Reiteration of shadows within the mind becoming one with the night
They become one with the night
-The shadows turning, inside of my mind
Emphasizing shadows reaching out for something positive
Are reaching out for the white
-When the silence, fades into the sky
Repetition of the transformative process from silence to freedom
And the nightmare, becomes a bird in flight
-Will I see you, in this ashen light
-Can I fight this, overwhelming night
Questioning the ability to combat overwhelming darkness
