Towards Me
Subdermal Dreams and Harlequin Lives
Lyrics
Several miles underneath you're teaching me to speak
Learning profound lessons from a deep, hidden place.
But up on the surface, you're beating me
Experiencing hardship or mistreatment on the surface.
The raw bloodied ghost of my form looks up
The damaged reflection of oneself observes.
A million deaths repeating
Repeatedly facing numerous challenges and struggles.
Sweat stings your eyes as you shatter my
Physical discomfort as the person breaks through emotional barriers.
Stupid reject apathy
Rejecting a numb and indifferent attitude.
But those underneath a subdermal dream
A dream beneath the surface, hidden but palpable.
I can feel my heart throbbing
Sensing one's heartbeat, a sign of vitality.
She's tired and she's broken up
Expressing fatigue and emotional brokenness.
Lights turn on, her face is washed in noise
Amidst external distractions, her true self is obscured.
Crowd goes wild when she steps out to the platform
Receiving acclaim from others when stepping into the public eye.
She jumps in the void
Taking a daring leap into the unknown.
Her skin peels away as she reaches the bar
Undergoing a transformative experience, shedding old layers.
No blood but her makeup is cracked
Despite no physical harm, external appearance reflects inner turmoil.
She's used to it this is the life of a harlequin
Being accustomed to a challenging life, similar to that of a harlequin.
Don't scratch and never look back
Advising against causing harm and avoiding dwelling on the past.
Now I'm looking the sky in the face
Facing the vastness of the sky with direct confrontation.
Its eyes are slowly dissolving into one another
Observing the dissolution and blending of elements in the sky.
I think its face is turning
Perceiving a change in the sky's expression or demeanor.
Towards me
Feeling a shift in the focus or attention of the sky towards oneself.
