Dead Yet
Surviving Shadows: Unveiling Life's Mysteries in 'Dead Yet'
Lyrics
I swore to myself I would never make it past certain ages
I made a personal commitment to not live beyond certain ages.
So it baffles me how
I find it surprising and confusing that
I'm not six feet down deep
I expected to be in a grave six feet deep,
Covered in concrete
covered in concrete,
It's a mystery how
It's a mystery that
I'm not dead by now
I'm still alive up to this point.
I never allowed myself to get any help
I refrained from seeking any assistance for myself,
No one likes a burden
as people generally dislike those who burden them.
So it baffles me how
It surprises and confuses me that
I'm not six feet down deep
I expected to be in a grave six feet deep,
Covered in concrete
covered in concrete,
It's a mystery how
It's a mystery that
I'm not dead by now
I'm still alive up to this point.
How am I not dead yet
Expressing disbelief at still being alive.
Been to edge a few too many times
I've been to the edge of something dangerous multiple times,
Pushed to the brink thinking I'm better in the tides
Pushed to the brink, thinking I might be better in challenging situations,
All falling back down to the question
All returning to the question:
Why
Why?
Is it really worth it when we only suffer to survive
Questioning the worthiness of enduring suffering only to survive.
So it baffles me how
It surprises and confuses me that
I'm not six feet down deep
I expected to be in a grave six feet deep,
Covered in concrete
covered in concrete,
It's a mystery how
It's a mystery that
I'm not dead by now
I'm still alive up to this point.
How am I not dead by now
Reiterating the disbelief in still being alive.
Dead by now
Emphasizing the idea of being dead by now.
Dead by now
Repeating the notion of being dead by now.
