Navigating Silent Struggles: Touché Amoré's Poetic Reflections
Lyrics
It's that special kind of quiet
Expressing a unique, noticeable silence
Where one might be concerned
Indicating a potential cause for concern
But even with this silence
Even in this quietness, there's still a lack of understanding
My voice can be misheard
My words may not be accurately perceived despite the silence
So I'll sweep the floors
Symbolic act of cleaning or dealing with past issues
For the ghosts who now reside
Referencing lingering memories or unresolved matters
The ones who came before
Alluding to those who preceded and didn't take a stance
Who never chose a side
People from the past who remained neutral or non-committal
I'll power through the night
Determined commitment to endure difficulties through the night
For some kind of victory
Pursuing a form of triumph despite challenges
It's not pretty, this vulgar life
Life is not glamorous, characterized by harsh realities
I'm airing constantly
Constantly exposing oneself, possibly emotionally
I'll get my fill of praise
Seeking acknowledgment and approval from others
And taste that bitter love
Experiencing love that comes with hardship or bitterness
I guess I'm still afraid
Admitting a lingering fear, possibly of rejection or inadequacy
For when you've had enough
Fear of reaching a point of saturation or exhaustion
The sooner my senses leave
Desiring an escape from sensory experiences and associated burdens
The burden I have will go
Hope that relinquishing senses will alleviate burdens
And the golden boy can be
An idealized figure can receive recognition without impediments
Paraded down below
Symbolic descent, possibly acknowledging vulnerability or humility
And down, I'll go
Descending, accepting challenges or facing the consequences
