Prey
Breaking Free: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Prey' by The Nameless
Lyrics
Let me free from this prison
Desire for liberation from confinement or restriction.
I know it's not just me alone
Acknowledgment that others share similar struggles.
Locking myself inside my head
Isolating oneself within thoughts or emotions.
Breaking down my consciousness
Deteriorating one's awareness or understanding.
I Feel I've got no purpose
Sense of lacking a meaningful aim or goal.
Just a countdown til i am dead
Feeling like life is passing until inevitable death.
I know nothing would change
Belief that circumstances wouldn't alter despite actions.
If I didn't breathe any more breaths
Realization that ceasing existence won't change things.
Pressure from everyone I know
External expectations causing stress or coercion.
To say something I don't believe
Being pressured to vocalize beliefs contrary to personal convictions.
People act as if I'm a foe
Perceived as an adversary for having individual thoughts.
When i resent, or have my own opinion
Encountering hostility for holding personal opinions.
I just wish I could be who I am
Desire to authentically express oneself without judgment.
And not paraded as a fool
Being ridiculed or mocked for genuine self-expression.
When I view my own view
Desire to articulate personal perspectives without censure.
And speak about how I feel
Expressing emotions or thoughts honestly.
Won't let me express myself
Feeling restricted from communicating genuine feelings.
Let me be who I am
Yearning for acceptance and allowance of authentic self.
Let me live how I want to
Claiming autonomy and the right to live freely.
I am my own person
Asserting individuality and autonomy over life choices.
Let me waste my own life and
Preference for personal autonomy and responsibility.
Worry about your own
Encouragement for others to focus on their own lives.
Soon we'll all be rotten anyway
Reflection on the inevitability of death and decay.
Piles of ash, or bodily decay
Contemplation of eventual physical decomposition.
So why spend my life in restraints
Questioning the point of living within limitations.
When I could fight and make it better for myself
Preferencing self-empowerment over compliance.
When I get one chance to be who I am
Desire to embrace individuality despite external pressures.
And people feel the need to take away my freedom
Frustration at others restricting personal freedoms.
Pressure from everyone I know
Continued pressure from social circles to conform.
To say something I don't believe
Repeated coercion to express beliefs conflicting with personal values.
People act as if I'm a foe
Being treated as an adversary for independent thoughts.
When i resent, or have my own opinion
Facing hostility for having individual opinions.
I just wish I could be who I am
Wishing for freedom to express genuine self without ridicule.
And not paraded as a fool
Desire to avoid being mocked for sincere self-expression.
When I view my own view
Desire to articulate personal perspectives without judgment.
And speak about how I feel
Expressing emotions or thoughts honestly.
Try see to your own way of life
Encouraging others to live by their own principles.
Follow my fucking rules
Imposing personal standards on others.
Live your life in restraints
Advocating for a restricted life, possibly sarcastically.
You are my prey
Labeling others as targets or victims for control.
Try see to your own way of life
Encouraging self-direction in one's life.
Follow my fucking rules
Imposing personal standards on others.
Live your life in restraints
Advocating for a restricted life, possibly sarcastically.
You are my prey
Declaring dominance or control over others.
