Cover art for Shine lyrics by Sevendust

He has been held down by someone..hasn't been able to be himself for a while. He has just gotten this person to stop pushing him down that he finds it hard to be who he used to be. He's trying to find his old self while recovering from the pain. His "free fall" is him going through the thousands of thoughts a second..trying to decide what to do next with his new freedom.
