This is about being in that place that's totally bleak. That you find more-and-more your paths are being cut off. That life starts becoming an antonym in itself. There is no reason to live.
Why live when all there is is sadness?
All there is is pain.
Otep is so awesome because they usually have a duality going on in their songs. On one hand you find out how bleak it is to live in this ses pool. But there is always a doorway. Always a way out no matter what.
Even if everything is cut off on the outside you can always go inside.
And that alone gives me reason to believe in something or someone higher. It can't be random that there is always a certain doorway out. An exit from the pain and sufferring.
These lines are utterly beautiful:
"- this is where i hide my power
this is where i become free
this is where i take control
and slowly choke your fantasies
i want to know my day is coming
see my enemies be punished
shed my skin again
this will be my best revenge!!"
To me revenge is beautiful. Maybe I'm sadistic in the view of others for thinking so... but I think redemption needs to sweep across the world. I think everyone needs to get exactly what they deserve, whether positive or negative. So this kind of revenge is something that is not always harmful. And harm isn't my objective. Just a lesson to make everyone rethink, whether it be to continue in their direction or change it.
