When the voices start spitting just be aware I've brought enough stones for us to share [you know you're a screw-up, and you're constantly reminded.] That one's grinning that one's burning aim for the throat Let em choke on the stones that we have to throw [you find yourself hoping that if you commit suicide or keep substituning the pain they'll feel guilty for it.] It's the great downfall The big overthrow If we shoot them down It'll make you soar [everyone wants to bebetter than everyone else but can't. the only way to make yourself feel good is by looking at the inadequacies of others.] When reactions turn into hurricanes [people find out you cut, they blow it out of proportion.] And the middle ground feels a little tame Whether full or empty it's all the same [it doesn't change how you feel. everything is monotone.] It's so easy to see everyone can agree you're not to blame [you always want to blame yourself in a situation like this. i hurts a lot when people say it isn't your fault, because in your eyes, it is.] |

really really depressing song. i think it's about people who are so depressed they hurt themselves or are suicidal. cutting is the substitution for he pain. here's what it said to me: There's a vulture perching right offscreen [people don't get to see what goes on behind closed doors. you could be in a lottt of pain, and no one might even notice.] It's bitter and whispers chaotic things [referring to the stuff you tell yourself, and what you may think people say about you.] And the weeps turn quick into bullying [you judge yourself hurtfully, and people judge you hurtfully.] It's so easy to see everyone can agree stop listening [when you try to talk to people about how much something like that hurts you they just dissmiss it and tell you to stop listening to the people and yourself but it's really hard.] I know you've heard it before But then it wasn't enough [people can tell you to stop hurting yourself and being depressed, but by now they don't mean as much to you and their opiniuons don't even really matter. --you're that hurtt.] You don't want to be held back from the substitution [you don't want to stop cutting/hurting yourself] I know you've seen this before And now enough is too much [they want to make you stop, and it's overwhelming. you may have thought you wanted attention for it, but now you realize you don't.] You don't want to be set back when the substitution comes I'm sorry [you don't want it to go on, maybe you've turned to suicide.] You're a marionette in the center of The twisting of strings coming from above [you probably feel pressured to conform to what everyone says you should do, right or wrong.] It may seem too deep to recover from It's so easy to see everyone can agree just let it go [but the pain has corrupted you. people think it's as easy to just let go of whatever's corrupting you.] |
