Damnation
Bleed from Within Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where do I begin to explain this mess
Everything I touch, everything I see reminds me of you
and the walls begin to blur as your sweet scent fills my lungs like your still in the air.
Forced smiles caress my face
sing into my ear cut out the hollow wailing within these walls.
I am angry at the world
For making me feel so betrayed my heart begins to sink.
Bound to the ground my dearest shall lay until the end of eternity.
This crushing feeling of emptiness unleashed upon me.
This crushing feeling of emptiness unleashed upon me.
I see this tragedy blinded by bloodshot eyes.
Bloodshot eyes.

Awaken me from this hell.
A lonely man I see
A lonely man I see hollow broken
Clutching to the memories
A lonely man I see hollow broken
Clutching to the memories
it's only getting worse as the sheets absorb
as the sheets absorb the tears.

Then let me count the days until we meet again,
Oh, oh, oh.
I'm counting the days until we meet again.




Bound to the ground my dearest shall lay until the end of eternity.
This crushing feeling of emptiness unleashed upon me.

The pain they feel is so intense that they are counting the days until they can be reunited with their ex, even though they know it may never happen. The final lines of the song describe their heartbreak and the realization that they will carry this feeling with them until the end of time.

Same here. Fantastic track. Can't believe some bands block Rick from playing their music. Seems like a waste of good advertising to me.
