Lyrics

Shout into the void

Expressing frustration or a need for attention by shouting into emptiness.

To only hear it shout back at me

The emptiness responds with echoes, emphasizing a lack of meaningful response or connection.

Shout into the void

Repetition of the futile act of shouting into emptiness, underscoring a sense of isolation.

To only hear it shout back at me

-

Shout into the void

-

To only hear it shout back at me

-

Shout into the void

Continued frustration and lack of meaningful communication with the void.

To only hear it shout back at me

There's a thorn in my foot

Metaphorically describing a painful situation or relationship represented by a thorn in the foot.

So I step hard-heeled on it

Choosing to exacerbate the pain intentionally, possibly symbolizing self-destructive behavior.

Just to watch it bleed

Observing and reveling in the consequences of the self-inflicted pain.

And I watch it bleed

-

You were a leech to me

Describing someone as a draining influence or parasite.

So I could only breathe unfeelingly

Feeling emotionally detached and numb in response to the draining relationship.

My siphon serene

Referring to a calming influence that has been drained or lost.

I watch it bleed

Reflecting on the consequences of the draining relationship.

Leave it alone!

An urgent plea to stop or leave a situation alone.

There's no sense roiling up the bees

Advising against causing unnecessary disturbance or chaos.

This I bemoan, this monomania:

Expressing a fixation on a single idea or obsession (monomania).

That I'm approximately seen

Feeling incompletely understood or seen by others.

Caught in blurs and saturation

Being entangled in confusion and sensory overload.

Of the days when I sedated

Recalling moments of sedation and emotional numbness.

With the dusked and agitated

Describing restlessness and anticipation, possibly related to a relationship.

Restlessness anticipating you

The restlessness is tied to an expectation or hope for someone's presence.

Now in approximation

Describing a distorted or confused approximation of reality.

My wires crossed, potentiation

Mentioning crossed wires and potentiation, suggesting confusion and heightened emotions.

Far too often deviating from absolute

Frequently deviating from a clear or absolute path, experiencing uncertainty.

I am mistaken through

Acknowledging a sense of being mistaken or misunderstood.

All those nights I feared you hated me

Recalling nights of fear and insecurity in a relationship.

For leaving like a craven

Regretting a past departure in a cowardly manner.

When to say that we were worth the labor

Expressing the belief that the relationship was worth the effort.

Is to say it understatedly

Underscoring the understated value of the relationship.

Shout into the void

Repetition of the act of shouting into emptiness, highlighting a persistent need for connection.

To only hear it shout back at me

It doesn't calm you down the way you want

Questioning the effectiveness of a supposed calming influence.

It only leaves you numb and reeling

Describing the aftermath of seeking solace, which results in emotional numbness.

(All that shouting)

Repetition of the theme that shouting doesn't provide the desired calming effect.

Doesn't calm you down the way you want

-

It only leaves you dumb unfeeling

-

(All that shouting)

-

Doesn't calm you down the way you want

-

It only leaves you numb and reeling

-

(All that shouting)

Doesn't calm you down the way you want

It only leaves you dumb unfeeling
