Disturbing Thoughts
Breaking Free: Confronting Shadows in a Dream
Lyrics
Woke up to disturbing thoughts today
Waking up with troubling thoughts
But instead of sitting with them
Avoiding confronting those thoughts
I doused myself in the
Engaging in trivial distractions from the internet
Unimportant thrills the web sent my way
Indulging in insignificant pleasures online
This cycle can't continue
Realizing the need to break this cycle
I know it can't continue
Being aware that the cycle cannot persist
So I'll
Expressing intention to change
Share with you a dream I had
Sharing a dream
Though I fear it shines a light
Concern about the dream's revealing nature
But fear just keeps the love from showing
Understanding fear inhibits expressing love
And it stops my soul mid flight
Fear obstructs personal growth and progress
In my dream I met a man I know
Encountering someone familiar in a dream
And he did things to make me cry
Actions of the person causing emotional distress
I did things that made me question
Engaging in actions leading to self-reflection
Who I really am inside
Questioning personal identity and values
In my vision I was shamed there
Feeling ashamed in the dream
Said I did not what I should
Being criticized for not meeting expectations
He said I know that what you say is right my dear
Acknowledgment of correctness despite guilt
But what we did it felt so good
Conflicted feelings about pleasurable actions
I was trapped in passion prison
Feeling trapped in desires and emotions
You the closest thing I had
Person being emotionally significant
You gave in in the moonlight
Both parties yielding to temptation
Now you are stuck here as I am
Feeling stuck due to mutual decisions
Note the mirrors all around this maze
Noticing the presence of self-reflection in the situation
They reflect your walls
Realizing one's own limitations and perceptions
The only way to free yourself
Suggesting self-abandonment as a solution
Is to forget yourself and push on
Encouraging pushing forward without self-restraint
I ask you
Requesting attention to self-reflection
Please note the mirrors all around this maze
Reiteration of the significance of self-reflection
They reflect your walls
Reiterating the impact of one's own perceptions
The only way to free yourself
Stressing the importance of moving forward
Is to forget yourself and push on
Encouraging self-abandonment for progress
The only way to free yourself
Highlighting the necessity of self-forgetfulness
Is to forget yourself and push on
Emphasizing the need to move ahead without restraint
