Fake ID
Eternal Longing: A Melodic Journey of Lost Dreams
Lyrics
It used to be all I ever wanted
Desire for something previously desired intensely
It used to use up all I had
Consumed all resources or energy
I waited my whole life for it to happen
Long-awaited moment didn't materialize
But now waiting is all that I have
Presently stuck in a state of anticipation
Some were never meant
Some people weren't meant for wear and tear
to get rusted and spent
Those not meant to deteriorate
Singing every night “The show must go on”
Performing despite inner struggles
But I'm not like them, though my heart may never mend
Personal resilience despite emotional damage
cnd I couldn't wait to go on
Eager to move forward in the past
But I can wait forever
Capable of waiting for an indefinite period
I can wait forever
Emphasizing the ability to endure waiting
I can wait forever now
Reiterating the prolonged patience
Cuz there's no rock and roll in my veins
Missing passion or excitement
She kissed me but I'm not the same
Effects of an action that didn’t influence deeply
cs those strung out boys and teenage junkies
Contrast between personal experience and others'
I feel it then it fades away
Feeling fades quickly after experiencing it
I used to think all those melodies
Belief that music hides personal issues
would hide that something was wrong
Music doesn’t cover underlying problems
It was never was about anything I thought it was
Realization of music's true nature
c thread stitched inside every song
Music contains hidden personal truths
cnd some were never meant
Similar sentiment to line 6
to get rusted and spent
Reiteration of the sentiment in lines 6 and 23
Singing every night “The show must go on”
Performance commitment despite personal differences
But I'm not like them, though my heart may never mend
Personal resilience despite emotional damage, reiterating line 8
Guess I was just singing along
Realization of merely following along
cnd I can sing forever
Capacity to continue singing indefinitely
I can sing forever now
Continued ability to sing for an extended duration
Cuz there's no rock and roll in my veins
Emphasizing absence of passion or excitement
She kissed me but I'm not the same
Effects of an action that didn’t deeply affect
cs those strung out boys and teenage junkies
Contrast between personal experience and others'
I feel it then it fades away
Feeling fades quickly after experiencing it, similar to line 17
There's no rock and roll in my veins
Reiteration of absence of passion or excitement
Just vessels filled with songs of rage
Feelings dominated by anger expressed through music
cnd those memories and a fake ID
Memories and a fake identity as current existence
who's picture slowly starts to fade...
Gradual disappearance of a fabricated persona
cway
Emphasis on the disappearance or fading
It's gonna be ok
Reassurance or self-consolation
