Dead Inside Lyrics

Cover art for Dead Inside lyrics by Mudvayne

It's about a guy dissapointed by the way he and his friends/group/couple/whatever situation you can put the lyrics into/ acts towards each other, with routinary standards and a worn (correct word? I mean, something that's been lasting for long, not years, but 5+ of them, and it's being collapsing day by day. Sorry me being non-natural English speaker) relationship where he and everyone is feeling way too uncomfortable with the situation. So he's calling a break. Let's add points to the idea:

I don't feel good Just an ordinary day

As I said, routinary, he can expect (almost) every reaction.

I don't care much About what you think

This is more like a "stop fighting", for some reason, I get the idea here he starts talking to his friends/etc about how he feels:

It all wash's away In the end Under the skies so gray In the end

Announcing a final or something

We're all dead inside Cant deny what is real The pain I feel Dead inside Cant deny, all the suffering Its just my way

Dead Inside meaning the cords snipped. He can't deny it, suffers from it, and sees everyone suffering.

I've seen enough No more hurt today All damage is done No more life this way

I've seen enough adding more strength to the idea that it's a long relationship, the following 2 lines asking to stop the repetitive actions and the last life to call a break, no one seems to deserve it anyways.

Every single one From every single way All they do is drag me down And I know it'll never change Every drop of blood Flows right down the drain Although I spilt it all for you You'd never appreciate You'd never appreciate

His point of view about how he tried to bring a better moment in whatever mean, but now he knows it's impossible to change the situation, he had tried his all (blood reference going down the drain) and everything went, not only wrong, but receiving the worst reply possible, no one paid attention anyway.

Well, at least I can feel it that way, maybe me fighting several times with my friends this year helps me to treat this song like this, but on the other hand, it seems too clear and everything fits so smoothly... well, I'll see replies if any :)

Wow. I would never have looked at this song this way. Good points!! :)
