Disengage
Chasing the Rise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I laugh at my past
While future is maintained by circles
Will I repeat the same mistakes?
Or will I find a place to disengage?

You make me feel I'm losing
You say I'm negative, depressed and left
Sensitive, envious, oblivious, divided
Selfish, unsociable, irritable, forgotten

I will not be your victim, I will not
I will not repeat mistakes
Show me what is real existence
So shut down the lights and disengage

Lights out (lights out)
Carry on (carry on)
Hold to your rewinding path
Swallowing your pain
Hold to your rewinding path
Swallowing your pain

Oh my
Show me what is real
And let me in
So you can heal
And burn

So I hold my heart in hand (hold heart in hand)
And scream the words for what I am

Take us back right now
While future is maintained by circles
Will I repeat the same mistakes?
Or will I find a place to disengage?

The sky fills my body with blue
The sun on my chest rises from ashes too
The sea through my hands comes alive
When I disengage

You make me feel I'm losing
You say I'm negative, depressed and left
Selfish, unsociable, irritable, forgotten

I will not be your victim
I will not repeat mistakes
Show me what is real existence
So shut down the lights





Hold to rewinding path
Swallowing your pain
