Always Fear
Eternal Shadows: Vita Layla's Haunting Journey through Love and Loss
Lyrics
How could I have known there was a different ending for me
Realization of an unforeseen outcome or destiny for oneself
I've played the battlefield cold but now all I see is tragedy
Transition from a detached approach to life to witnessing only tragedy
And when you speak to me, all I hear is nails on a chalkboard
Perceiving discomfort or irritation when interacting with someone
And all your preaching's got me undone and I can't
Feeling emotionally unsettled due to persuasive words or advice
Give up the world for something
Unwilling to sacrifice everything for an uncertain alternative
He says that he'll make it worth your while
A promise of making something rewarding or valuable
But happiness doesn't complain
Happiness doesn't express dissatisfaction or grievances
And rabbit holes lead to darker skies
Choosing uncertain paths leading to darker or troubling situations
I know
Repeated acknowledgment of the chilling reality
I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-It's cold out here
-And I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-I'll always fear
A constant feeling of dread or apprehension
Stop lights, parked at the avenue
Observation of a moment halted by caution or restriction
Don't laugh at your jokes thinking
Questioning or doubting oneself over a personal response
God what is wrong with you
Recognizing differences or separations despite similarities
Two separate mattresses, actresses
Symbolic reference to a lack of authenticity in a relationship
But you and I we're not actors
Declaring authenticity within a connection despite appearances
Some day I'll leave but until then it's a pipe dream
A distant hope or aspiration not currently feasible
Oh I, I didn't mean to deceive but I don't know what else I can do
An unintended misrepresentation without alternative choices
Give up the world for something
Unwillingness to sacrifice everything for an uncertain alternative
He says that he'll make it worth your while
A promise of making something rewarding or valuable
But happiness doesn't complain
Happiness remains content without expressing dissatisfaction
And rabbit holes lead to darker skies
Choosing uncertain paths leading to darker or troubling situations
Lost in your desert landscape
Feeling lost or disoriented in an arid and barren emotional setting
But seasons won't change if you won't change your mind
Realization that change won’t occur without altering one's mindset
Should've known nothing comes from the bittersweet union of two lost
A recognition that no positive outcomes come from a troubled union
It's wonderful caverns we walk through the dark
Exploring wondrous yet obscure pathways in a dark period of life
But the slightest breeze, slightest touch extinguishes sparks
The vulnerability of hope or passion easily vanishes
You and I part our ways
Acknowledging the separation and attempting to navigate difficulties
We'll try to get through this maze
An attempt to resolve challenges despite encountering obstacles
But the doors are all boarded
Realization of being taken advantage of or manipulated
Guess we've been exploited
Recognition of exploitation or misuse in a situation
I'll light up my torch, my candles and crystals
Seeking guidance or solace through symbolic means
I'll pray through it all, through the smoke and the blisters
Seeking strength and faith amidst adversity
But I find it hard, so hard to believe
Struggling to accept one's own previous ignorance
That I was so blind, that I couldn't see
Regret for not recognizing the truth sooner
That I'd give up my world for nothing
Regret for sacrificing everything for a futile cause
You said that you'd make it worth my while
A promise of making something rewarding or valuable unfulfilled
But happiness doesn't complain
Happiness remains content without expressing dissatisfaction
And rabbit holes lead to darker skies
Choosing uncertain paths leading to darker or troubling situations
Still lost in your desert landscape
Feeling lost or disoriented in an arid and barren emotional setting
But seasons won't change cause you won't change your mind
Realization that change won’t occur without altering one's mindset
Should've known nothing comes from the bittersweet union of two lost souls
Acknowledging the futility of troubled unions in yielding positivity
I know
Repeated acknowledgment of the chilling reality
I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-It's cold out here
-And I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-I know
-I'll always fear
A constant feeling of dread or apprehension
