and the rules they might mold me
but it´s all they told me what i´d be
well the time is passing
and my crime forgotten
and by now you think i could leave
the show is all there is to me
and all i am is where i stand
you´re just too far to see
make the shell i´ve been given
painted red these skin colored walls
well the bars they held me
and the scars my trophies
and by far it´s only the start
the show is all there is to me
and all i am is where i stand
you´re just too far ,too far to see
winter burns, stones won´t turn cycle frozen
your day is night around here
and still i yearn for the day
when i learn there´s a way
out of here
the show is all there is to me
and all i am is where i stand
you´re just too far ,too far to see
after a bad experience, he locks himself in a selfcreated world(well these walls they might hold me and the rules they might mold me) ,where he can enjoy his sorrow( well the time is passing and my crime forgotten) because he has no strength enough to go on, and his friends try to cheer him up telling him to go on, but he thinks that they can´t help him, because they don´t know how he really feels(you´re just too far to see).
i felt exactly the same after cutting off with my girlfriend(i were 7 years with her, from 16 to 23)i just stay alone in my house and keep listening to old songs that remind me good past times, iwanted to go on , but i havent the will to continue with my life, many of my friends try to cheer my up, but i feel like they dont know exactly about was going on in my head, so their help was useless to me.GREAT LYRICS!!this is only my point of view of this lyrics, maybe anybody doesnt agree with me...!
i think this song is about your consciousness being locked inside your own body. and hating it. i know the feeling. there's more to the song as it referneces another person, but i haven't quite figured that out yet. i'll get back to you.
