The Other Side of Fear
Embracing the Other Side: Confronting Fear's Abyss
Lyrics
My heart is racing, I cannot feel my arms
Feeling intense emotions; physical numbness and detachment.
This world that I have built it all comes crashing to the ground
The constructed reality or life falling apart abruptly.
I’m frozen, I’m frozen
Feeling paralyzed, emotionally or mentally.
I am descending, the mirror has me now
Entering a self-reflective state, possibly confronting oneself.
Death would be much easier than to bear this veil of stone
Considering death as an escape from a burdensome existence.
I’m broken, I’m broken
Emotionally shattered and damaged.
I’m falling through shadows
Experiencing a descent into darkness or difficult times.
They follow me close behind
Feeling pursued or haunted by shadows or problems.
I wander through this nightmare
Navigating through a challenging and distressing experience.
Til’ I reach the other side
Striving to overcome fear and reach a more positive state.
The other side of fear
Referring to the positive outcome beyond fear.
The floor is shaking, I’m losing all control
Experiencing a destabilizing situation, losing control.
My senses are oblivious to everything around
Losing awareness of the surroundings; sensory overload.
It’s fading, it’s fading
Fading away, possibly losing a sense of self.
And I am empty, there’s nothing left of me
Feeling completely empty, devoid of substance.
Can it be I’ll never come to see the other side?
Doubting the possibility of overcoming fear and adversity.
It’s over, it’s over
Accepting the conclusion of a difficult situation.
I’m falling through shadows
Continuing the descent into darkness and difficulty.
They follow me close behind
A sense of persistent problems or challenges following closely.
I wander through this nightmare
Persisting through a nightmarish experience.
Til’ I reach the other side
Striving to overcome fear and reach a positive state.
The other side of fear
Reaching the positive outcome beyond fear.
Bearing witness to this entity
Observing a powerful and possibly ominous presence.
That hovers up above
The entity hovering, representing a looming threat or fear.
Regardless, of what we do to justify our fear
Regardless of efforts to rationalize fear, it persists.
And all the little pills
Dependence on substances to cope with fear or anxiety.
We take, in the hope he’ll go away
Taking medication in the hope of alleviating fear or problems.
Sinking further into misery
Sinking deeper into unhappiness and despair.
I’m falling through shadows
Continuing the descent into darkness and difficulty.
They follow me close behind
A sense of persistent problems or challenges following closely.
I wander through this nightmare
Persisting through a nightmarish experience.
Til’ I reach the other side
Striving to overcome fear and reach a positive state.
The other side of fear
Reaching the positive outcome beyond fear.
