Bleed
Deadsun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sea of pain consumes.
I made a decision, to get away.
Spread my wings and fly away.
I'm feeling better than before.
Relieving just the head.
Don't wanna' deal with reality, today.
As I bleed internally, must I bleed internally?
Put on my game face.
Head-forth a smile.
Stuff feeling's deep inside.
Wild dad detaches
Mom's in denial.
I sit alone as I watch my sister die
I'm feeling better than before.
Relieving just the head.
Don't wanna' deal with reality, today.
Yes, this'll work for a while,
As I bleed internally, must I bleed internally?
I'm so addicted, to all this pain.
Only chaos remains.
And I feel that I have nothing to give.
Here I distil my will to live.
I'm feeling better than before.
Relieving just the head.
Don't wanna' deal with reality, today.
Yes, this'll work for a while.
As I bleed internally, must I bleed internally?
The lyrics in "Bleed" by Deadsun describe the struggle of a person living in pain and wanting to escape reality. The "sea of pain" is consuming them, and they make a decision to "get away" and "spread their wings and fly away." The person believes that they will feel better by escaping reality and relieving just their head. They do not want to deal with the harshness of life today and want to bleed internally instead.
The person tries to cope with their emotions by putting on a game face, hiding their feelings deep inside, and detaching themselves from their family's pain. Their dad seems wild and their mom in denial as they sit and watch their sister die. The person feels better than before by relieving their head, but must they keep bleeding internally?
The lyrics suggest that the person is addicted to pain, where only chaos remains, and they have nothing left to give. The person tries to find the will to live but struggles to do so.
Overall, "Bleed" reflects the struggle that many people face with pain and trying to escape reality. The lyrics suggest that while this may provide temporary relief, ultimately, it does not solve the problem.
