Lyrics
I am alive here, I'm awake
I am currently alive and fully aware of my surroundings.
A silhouette cold, white as sheets fit in me
A cold, white silhouette, resembling sheets, is fitting inside me.
Reverse I know, you can hold me down forever
Despite knowing the reverse, someone has the power to keep me restrained indefinitely.
I'm used to it
I have become accustomed to this situation.
Sand as my skin, head in the clouds
My skin feels like sand, and my mind is in a dreamlike state above an empty world.
Above an empty earth
Hovering over a desolate earth.
A black drape across my soul
A metaphorical black drape covers my soul.
I'm floating out to something new
I'm drifting towards something new.
Reverse I know, you can hold me down forever
Reiterating the awareness that someone can keep me restrained indefinitely.
I'm used to it, I'm used to it
Expressing familiarity and acceptance of this restrictive situation.
Even with the ink
Even with the ink (possibly referencing permanence), the fact of your absence remains unnoticed.
No one knows you're gone
No one is aware that you have departed.
Hold now, hold now, I'll forget
Encouraging oneself to hold on and forget.
Hold now, hold now, I'll forget everything
Repeating the urge to hold on and forget everything.
A faint mark on the wall
A faint mark on the wall, possibly symbolizing a memory or a trace of the past.
I kneel down and leave them all to you
Kneeling down and leaving everything to someone else.
Reverse, I know, you can hold me down forever
Reiterating the knowledge that someone has the ability to keep me restrained indefinitely.
Reverse, I know, you can hold me down forever
Repeating the acknowledgment of being used to this restraining situation.
I'm used to it, I'm used to it
