IV
Au-Dessus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What once was whole, now needs healing
Last drops of sane flows fast...
I cant control this inner feeling,
These unbearable voices in my head.
Please stoooop!
Cease those deranged screams,
Stooop, and give me hope again.
I find myself trapped in these loud echoes,
Echoes made by me. Or is this me?
These skies are crushing like concrete blocks
Every bit of thinking sinks in a delusion plague
Want to feel me? And to taste my pain?
Gather around and watch me bleed..
Please stoooop!
Cease those deranged screams,
Stooop, and give me hope again.
I find myself trapped in these loud echoes,
Echoes made by me. Or is this me?
I am stuck on a path to what comes next
Bludgeoned soul shrieks its way out




Is there a meaning? Is this the faith?
Is this is the thing which will shut me down

The person feels like they have no control over their own thoughts and is questioning whether or not they are even in control of their own actions. They ask if the delusion they are experiencing is them or if they are just hearing their own echoes. The fact that the person in the song is asking if this is what is going to shut them down may indicate that they fear that their mental health problems might lead them to suicidal thoughts.
