The Falling
Yearning for the Abyss: The Falling's Seductive Descent
Lyrics
I crave this poison every day
I have a daily craving for this poison
Well, it gives me wings
Despite its harmful effects, it empowers me
But takes the sky away
But it also takes away the metaphorical sky, suggesting limitations
I know desire like the back of my hand
I am familiar with desire, intimately aware of it
Still I smell the love with a palm
Yet, I can still sense love, represented by a palm holding a wedding band
That holds my wedding band
Suggesting a conflicted relationship or a reminder of commitment
In this loving, this loving in the race
Amidst love, there is a competitive aspect, described as a race
Of this vicious liquid I long to taste
Expressing a strong desire for a harmful liquid
If I could convince, convince only myself
If possible, I would convince only myself of its appeal
They're assembling now for the falling
There is a gathering or preparation for a significant event referred to as 'the falling'
They're assembling now for the falling
-They're assembling now for the falling
-And they'll see me
They will witness or notice me in this context
Well, you are the angel able to detеct
Addressing someone as an angel with the ability to recognize the darkness within
The devil in me and in all thе rest
-I lower my bowl after I've cried
After shedding tears, I lower my bowl, possibly a metaphor for vulnerability
And dislodge the arrows that my sight
Removing the metaphorical arrows affecting my vision or judgment
You're decorated with all that I need
The person is adorned with everything essential, including jealousy
Even this beautiful jealousy that
Jealousy is acknowledged as beautiful
To be a father, to have that choice
Expressing a desire to be a father, implying a longing for choices
To stand on trial without a voice
To face judgment without a voice or defense
They're assembling now for the falling
Reiteration of the assembling for 'the falling'
They're assembling now for the falling
-They're assembling now for the falling
-And they'll see me
Anticipation that they will observe or notice the speaker during 'the falling'
