After Dark
Navigating Shadows: Wax Duplex's After Dark Revelations
Lyrics
Stay on your mark
Stay focused and ready.
Nothing good happens after dark
A warning that undesirable events often occur during the night.
Nothing makes me as uncomfortable as this
Expressing discomfort, possibly with a situation or circumstance.
I waste my time
Using time inefficiently or without purpose.
Dealing with problems that aren't mine
Dealing with issues that do not belong to the speaker.
I trade patience for forgiveness that doesn't exist
Sacrificing patience for forgiveness that may not be attainable.
Kick a hole in the roof
Expressing frustration or anger by damaging the environment.
If that's how it is
Accepting a situation for what it is.
I'd take a hole to the chest
Willing to endure pain for personal growth or change.
To make room for something else
Creating space for something new through personal sacrifice.
Takes a whole lot of push
Signifying the effort required to overcome challenges.
Just to get to live
Highlighting the difficulty of achieving a meaningful life.
Even close to the shadow of what you'd like
Striving for a goal that may fall short of expectations.
A victory
Defining victory based on personal interpretation.
Is whatever it means to me
Emphasizing the subjective nature of success.
I like losing to the joint I rolled myself
Finding satisfaction in personal choices, even if unconventional.
So, laugh right now
Encouraging laughter in the present moment.
Awkward moments turn to gold
Transforming uncomfortable situations into valuable experiences.
And I'm getting old
Reflecting on the passage of time and the inevitability of aging.
