Wounded
Echoes of Love's Battle: To Kill a King's Wounded Saga
Lyrics
Of the hurt we’ve thrown at each other’s homes
Reflecting on the pain caused in each other's lives
The silence was the worst
The absence of communication was particularly difficult
We cut our teeth on loves sweet dream
Learning about love's idealized concept in the past
Now we are spitting blood when we speak
Experiencing intense conflicts and hostility in current interactions
I ain’t no devil
Denying being purely evil
You ain’t no saint
Rejecting the idea of the other person being entirely virtuous
We were just actors
Acknowledging a role-playing dynamic in the relationship
Sharing a stage
Both individuals sharing a common stage in life
The lights come up and it’s not enough to save the two of us
Realizing that external factors cannot save the relationship
So I’ll go in dimlim holes
Choosing to retreat into obscure places
With ancient dogs like me
Seeking solace in the company of those with experience
I’m wounded
Expressing emotional wounds and vulnerability
Im wounded
-I’m wounded
-The cards we show, when the dark is close
Revealing true selves in challenging situations
Is who we really are
Stating that true character is evident in adversity
It’s easy to love when you are winning it large
Highlighting the ease of love during favorable circumstances
And everything going your way
Emphasizing the challenge of love during difficult times
I ain’t no master
Denying a dominant role in the relationship
You ain’t no slave
Rejecting the idea of being completely subservient
We lean on each other to carry our chains
Depicting mutual reliance to bear life's burdens
So all that’s left since when you left
Feeling the lingering impact of the other person's departure
Is your shape inside of me
Carrying the memory or influence of the departed person
So I’ll go in dimlim holes
Choosing isolation in challenging circumstances
With ancient dogs like me
Seeking understanding from those with similar experiences
I’m wounded
Reiterating the emotional wounds and vulnerability
Im wounded
-I’m wounded
