Cut Through Me
Bearing Scars: Unveiling the Depths of Struggle in 'Cut Through Me'
Lyrics
Confessional
Confession or admission of personal experiences or feelings.
These are the scars from all that cut through me
The visible marks or wounds resulting from experiences that deeply affected the speaker.
I have been broken, beaten & damned to never make the cut
The speaker acknowledges being shattered, defeated, and cursed to never succeed or gain an advantage.
To never get the upper-hand
An expression of perpetual disadvantage, never achieving superiority or control.
There's wolves looking hungry
Potential threats or adversaries who are eager and menacing.
Trust running thin
Faith or reliance is diminishing or eroding.
The lies that you sold
Deceptions or untruths that have been marketed or presented to others.
The story untold
An undisclosed or hidden narrative.
The face you wear is growing old
The facade worn by the speaker is aging or losing its appeal.
These traitorous dogs
Refers to disloyal individuals who seek power or authority.
They all want the crown
Competition for a position of influence or leadership.
There are snakes in the garden
Deceptive and harmful influences within a seemingly pleasant environment.
Vultures inbound
Threats or challenges approaching with the intention to exploit.
Look at my life, do you like what you see?
An invitation for others to evaluate the speaker's life and choices.
It starts with obsession, then out come the strings
The beginning of a cycle involving fixation and manipulation by others.
All of these people smothering
Feeling overwhelmed by people who are suffocating or suppressing.
I've just about had enough
A sense of reaching the limit or threshold of tolerance.
You don't even know me
An assertion that others lack a true understanding of the speaker.
When I go low
Reacting strongly in challenging situations.
You wouldn't believe how far I go to prove something
Willingness to go to extreme lengths to prove oneself.
To be someone, be something
Desire to establish identity and significance.
I am not a person to ever be reasoned with
The speaker is not easily influenced or persuaded.
Never the same
Constantly changing and evolving, never static.
Always to blame
Always held responsible or culpable for actions.
I am so many ex-lover's worst memories
The speaker is a collection of negative memories for past lovers.
Doomed to replay & repeat
Doomed to relive and replicate past mistakes and failures.
All this time I though it over
Reflecting on the past with a focus on manic experiences.
Mania is all I see
An overwhelming sense of excitement or enthusiasm.
Look at my life, do you like what you see?
A repetition of the invitation for scrutiny of the speaker's life.
It starts with obsession, then out come the strings
Reiteration of the cycle starting with fixation and manipulation.
All of these people smothering
Continued feeling of being overwhelmed by others.
I think I've had enough
An assertion that the speaker has reached a breaking point.
You don't even know me
Reiteration that others lack a genuine understanding of the speaker.
Pled for some friends
A plea for companionship or support.
All I got was this knife in my back
An expression of betrayal and hurt by supposed friends.
Everybody just puts up a front
Critique of people who present a false or deceptive image.
Pretending to be something they are not
Observation of widespread pretense and lack of authenticity.
Oh, won't you rid my sorrow?
A request for relief from emotional pain or suffering.
Death declined a cumbered mind that clang to life
Resistance to succumbing to despair or giving up on life.
