Truth Hits Everybody
Unveiling Truth: A Symphony of Broken Dreams and Cold Realizations
Lyrics
Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean
Sleep is behind the speaker, resembling a shattered or disrupted tranquility.
Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold
The speaker experiences strange and vivid waking dreams.
You lay there sleeping like an open doorway
Someone is peacefully sleeping, depicted as an open doorway.
I stepped outside myself and felt so cold
The speaker metaphorically steps outside of themselves, feeling emotionally distant and cold.
Take a look at my new toy
The speaker introduces a new object, possibly a metaphorical "toy."
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
The new toy has a powerful impact, potentially causing significant emotional or mental effects.
Truth hits everybody
Repetition emphasizes the universal impact of truth on everybody.
Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-I thought about it and my dream was broken
The speaker reflects on a shattered dream and desperately clings to fleeting images.
I clutch at images like dying breath
Metaphorical imagery of grasping at images resembling a dying breath.
And I don't want to make a fuss about it
The speaker does not want to draw attention to their struggles.
The only certain thing in life is death
Expresses a stoic acceptance that death is the only certainty in life.
Take a look at my new toy
Reintroduction of the new toy, suggesting a persistent impact.
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
Reiteration of the powerful and potentially disruptive nature of the new toy.
Truth hits everybody
Repetition emphasizes the pervasive nature of truth hitting everyone.
Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Where you want to be
Possibly questioning the listener's awareness or understanding of their current state.
Won't you ever see
-Truth hits everybody
Continued repetition underscores the inescapable impact of truth on everyone.
Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Truth hits everybody
-Truth hits everyone
-Now
The conclusion of the lyrics, leaving the interpretation open-ended.
