Ego Eris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I'm not up for love
Or if I
Can't let myself be loved
My friends and I
We no longer walk
The same ways
Why do I have to go down so deep?
I was born with a burning death wish
For all this hatred is mine to drink
I will bite to let it devour me (2x)
(The cat inside the box
Are we alive or dead?)
Vilify me
It's easier on yourself
Take your promises
To anybody else
All these filthy secrets
Swirling on and on
In this life
We are all alone
Why do I have to go down so deep?
I was born with a burning death wish
For all this hatred is mine to keep
I will bite to let it devour me (3x)
Why do I have to be down so deep?
I was born with this stupid death wish
For all this hatred is mine to drink
I will bite to let it devour me
In the first verse of "Scorpio," the lyrics delve into themes of self-doubt and emotional barriers. The singer expresses uncertainty about their ability to truly engage in a romantic relationship, wondering if they are either incapable of giving love or allowing themselves to receive it in return. This internal conflict showcases a struggle with vulnerability and a fear of intimacy, which could stem from past experiences or insecurities.
The second verse shifts the focus to the singer's relationships with their friends. They acknowledge a growing distance and disconnect between themselves and their peers, indicating that they are navigating changing dynamics and perhaps outgrowing certain friendships. The notion that sometimes simply walking separate paths is sufficient for these relationships to evolve or fade underscores the idea of personal growth and individual paths diverging.
The chorus introduces a more intense and introspective tone to the song, hinting at darker emotions and a sense of self-destructiveness. The repetition of the line "Why do I have to go down so deep?" reflects a sense of being in a deep emotional pit, where feelings of self-loathing and internal turmoil reside. The mention of a "burning death wish" alludes to a desire for self-destruction or a metaphorical rebirth through suffering, adding layers of complexity to the singer's psyche.
The closing verse revisits the theme of hatred and inner turmoil, as the singer struggles with their own demons and the burden of carrying personal secrets and pain. The repetition of the line "I will bite to let it devour me" signifies a willingness to confront and accept the darkness within, suggesting a cyclical pattern of self-sabotage and emotional reckoning. The juxtaposition of self-inflicted suffering and a longing for connection and understanding creates a poignant contrast in the lyrics, encapsulating the complexities of human emotions and the internal battles we face in our quest for self-acceptance and healing.

I don't know
Uncertainty surrounds me
If I'm not up for love
Questioning my capacity for love
Or if I
Contemplating my emotional barriers
Can't let myself be loved
Struggling to accept affection
My friends and I
Distance has grown between us
We no longer walk
Our paths have diverged
The same ways
We've taken different directions
Sometimes that's enough
Accepting the changes in relationships
Why do I have to go down so deep?
Questioning the darkness within
I was born with a burning death wish
Inherent self-destructive tendencies
For all this hatred is mine to drink
Internalizing negative emotions
I will bite to let it devour me
Choosing to succumb to negativity
Vilify me
Blame me to ease your conscience
It's easier on yourself
Avoiding personal responsibility
Take your promises
Empty vows hold no weight
To anybody else
Words spoken to deceive others
All these filthy secrets
Hidden truths corroding within
Swirling on and on
Constantly haunting thoughts
In this life
Existence filled with turmoil
We are all alone
Isolation in a crowded world
Why do I have to be down so deep?
Sinking further into despair
I was born with this stupid death wish
A misguided desire for self-destruction
For all this hatred is mine to drink
Choosing to consume negativity
I will bite to let it devour me
Intentionally allowing negativity to consume me
