About us: Weâre a 2-man band/studio project, 100% self-produced â we write, compose, perform, record, mix, and master all elements of our music. Control freaks? Yes. Our story began 15 years earlier in the high-school metal band we formed together. We tirelessly practiced and gigged and had visions of rock stardom. Soon after high school ended, careers and families slowly took over, and by our early 20âs we had let our musical aspirations fade into the background. But we never lost touch, never stopped writing, and after 10 years we finally decided to stop reminiscing and start recording an album, âBurn the Rezâ, released in 2014.
The World Beyond
Burn the Rez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I fall in line and just pretend I'm someone else
Try and cover the open wounds and leave dark days behind
But I will be forever, alone like always, far from everyone
Scream to the world beyond the walls, but no one's listening at all
Miles away and all alone, where no one will know
Always wonder, never see my own illusion come to be
Walking blind, I can't find my way out
Under black cloud skies, leave no shadows on their world
Could I throw it all away, leave those darkest days behind
But I will be forever, alone like always, far from everyone
Scream to the world beyond the walls, but no one's listening at all
Miles away and all alone, where no one will know
Always wonder, never see my own illusion come to be
The truth is more than I will bare, and no one will care
I'm silent in this space, no need to look away
From all the things that I've become, and the side of me that's won
My reflection that remains is only the things I can not change
Still it's all I ever see, remains of what will never be
of what will never be
of what will never be
Scream to the world beyond the walls, but no one's listening at all
Miles away and all alone, where no one will know
Always wonder, never see my own illusion come to be
The truth is more than I will bare, and no one will care
I'm not alright
The lyrics of Burn the Rez's song The World Beyond depict a sense of loneliness, confusion and the inability to find answers to life's difficult questions. The song starts with the singer admitting to being lost and unable to find the answers they seek. They pretend to be someone else, trying to cover the open wounds and leave the dark days behind. The singer knows that they will always be alone, far from everyone else.
The chorus of the song has a repeating metaphor of screaming to the world beyond the walls but nobody's listening. The singer is miles away and all alone, where nobody will know their pain. They always wonder but never see their own illusion come to be. The truth is more than they will bear, but nobody cares. They are walking blindly and can't find their way out, leaving no shadows on their world under black cloud skies.
Towards the end of the song, the singer embraces their reality and accepts that the reflection that remains is only the things they cannot change. Still, it is all they ever see, remains of what will never be. The singer asserts that they are not alright.
The song addresses universal themes of loneliness and the struggle to find answers to life's difficult questions. It speaks to the experience of feeling like you don't belong and are not heard in the world. The lyrics are relatable to anyone who has ever felt lost and alone.

I'm lost and I can't find the answers
I am confused and unable to discover solutions
So I fall in line and just pretend I'm someone else
I conform and feign a different identity
Try and cover the open wounds and leave dark days behind
I attempt to hide my exposed emotional pain and move on from my difficult past
But I will be forever, alone like always, far from everyone
Despite my efforts, I will always be isolated from others
Scream to the world beyond the walls, but no one's listening at all
I cry out for help, but nobody pays attention
Miles away and all alone, where no one will know
I am far from anyone and in complete solitude
Always wonder, never see my own illusion come to be
I constantly question myself and can never fully achieve my desired illusion
The truth is more than I will bare, and no one will care
The reality of my situation is overwhelming and nobody will take notice or help
Walking blind, I can't find my way out
I am figuratively lost and have no clear direction to escape my situation
Under black cloud skies, leave no shadows on their world
I am in a negative mindset that has no effect on others around me
Could I throw it all away, leave those darkest days behind
I consider abandoning everything and start fresh without my past problems
I'm silent in this space, no need to look away
I am in a state of quiet contemplation and don't feel the need to avoid any reflections
From all the things that I've become, and the side of me that's won
I reflect on my development, both positive and negative
My reflection that remains is only the things I can not change
The only part of myself left to see is the unchangeable aspects
Still it's all I ever see, remains of what will never be
I am still fixated on the unattainable, leaving me unable to move on
I'm not alright
I am not doing well mentally or emotionally

It's hard work betrays none
But dreams betrays man
@wilwhy7354
Dreams may betray many, but you betray yourself by just giving up on them without trying.
Then again if you don't try then you may not wanted that dream as much as you thought you did (man I sound like an ass or is it just me)
Both made by me just now or how long ago it says. Though I doubt this is all original.
