Face to Face
Facing the Shadows: Unraveling the Depths of Self-Reflection
Lyrics
you couldn't find a higher horse to ride upon
You've chosen a high-handed and superior stance.
wanna talk about feeling low
Wanting to discuss feeling down or depressed.
how do you sleep at night
Questioning how you manage to sleep at night.
alone in your bed
Alone in your bed.
face to face with yourself
Facing your own self, possibly confronting your inner thoughts or conscience.
the irony is wasting time thinking about time spent
Ironically wasting time reflecting on time already spent.
a feedback loop that will go on in your head
A cyclical pattern of thoughts that continues in your mind.
drop your ego drop your life
Suggesting to let go of pride and one's current lifestyle.
cause both will render useless like the back dull end of a knife
Both ego and life can become worthless, similar to a blunt knife.
feel nothing
Feeling emotionally numb.
like my body left in the sun
Comparing the feeling of numbness to being exposed to the sun.
no one's made a move that can be undone
Actions taken that cannot be reversed or undone.
drop everything and feel nothing
Suggesting to abandon everything and experience emotional detachment.
doesn't get much lower than this
Expressing a deep emotional low.
concoct a poison
Create a harmful situation or mindset.
and be the one who drinks from the cup
Being the one who suffers the consequences of your actions.
whatever you want is not enough
No matter what you desire, it doesn't satisfy your thirst or longing.
to settle your quench
What you seek doesn't quench your desires.
the irony is wasting time thinking about time spent
Repeated reflection on time spent, which is futile.
a feedback loop that will go on in your head
A continual loop of thoughts in your mind.
drop your ego drop your life
Encouragement to abandon arrogance and current life direction.
cause both will render useless like the back dull end of a knife
Both ego and life can become worthless, similar to a blunt knife (repeated from line 9).
feel nothing
Experiencing emotional numbness (repeated from line 11).
like my body left in the sun
Metaphorically feeling exposed and abandoned.
no one's made a move that can be undone
Actions taken that cannot be reversed or undone (repeated from line 13).
drop everything and feel nothing
Suggesting to abandon everything and experience emotional detachment (repeated from line 14).
is there something in the way
Something obstructing the true expression of oneself.
of you being you
Questioning if there's an impediment to being genuine.
is there something in the way
Reiteration of something potentially blocking authenticity.
