Fear, in me, so deep
it gets the best of me
and in fear, i fall
here it comes, face to face with me
here i stand, hold back so no one can see
i feel these wounds
step down, step down, step DOWN
it cannot break me, DOWN

Can i break away?
push me away, make me fall
just to see another side of me
push me away, u cant see what i see
the other side of me

Fall back on me, and ill be the strength i need
to save me now, just come face to face with me
stay in place, u'll be the first to see
me heal these wounds
step down, step down, step DOWN, DOWN
it cannot break me, DOWN, DOWN

Can i break away?
push me away, make me fall
just to see another side of me
push me away, u cant see what i see, the other side of me
side of me, side of me, side of me

GO
GOOOOOOOOOOOO

Can i break away?
push me away, make me fall
just to see another side of me
push me away, u cant see what i see
the other side of me

No one can see anything on the other side of me
i walk, i crawl
losing everything and waiting for a downfall
no one can see anything on the other side of me
i walk, i crawl
losing everything, on the downfall
FALL

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
