Shadows
Espermachine Lyrics

My head is aching
My mind is filled with thoughts and worries, causing me physical pain.

My heart is pounding so hard
My heartbeat is fast and strong, indicating my strong emotions and anxiety.

The pain beneath my skin is screaming
The emotional distress I'm experiencing is so intense it feels physical, as if my insides are screaming out in agony.

I'm a tower of pride
Despite my pain and distress, I am unwilling to show weakness or vulnerability and instead project a facade of strength and confidence.

Looking for my past I play a broken note
As I search for answers and understanding about myself and my history, I am struggling to make sense of the pieces and memories that make up my past.

Your voice comes from the ruin
In the midst of my turmoil, I hear your voice, which brings both comfort and pain as it reminds me of the past.

You call me!
You beckon me to confront my past and my true self, even if it is difficult or painful.

Stuck inside your spell
I am entranced and captivated by you, unable to break free from the hold you have over me and my emotions.

I am overexposed
I am vulnerable and unprotected, having revealed too much of myself to you and the world.

You are a spectacle
You are a captivating and mesmerizing figure, drawing attention and fascination from those around you.

I am not myself tonight
My true self is hidden beneath my emotional distress and my attempts to project strength and confidence.

I can't wash myself
I am unable to rid myself of the emotional weight and distress that plagues me, no matter how much I try to wash it away.

I'm standing here with my heart on my sleeve
I am fully exposing my emotions and vulnerabilities to you and the world, leaving myself open to attack or hurt.

The air is thick with Karma
The atmosphere around me is heavy with the consequences of my past actions and decisions.

Turned up to it's highest point
The intensity of the karmic consequences is at its maximum, causing me greater distress and pain.

Whisper us the way
We are asking for guidance and clarity, hoping for a voice to lead us out of our confusion and turmoil.

We'll gladly sing along
We are willing to follow wherever the guidance leads, eagerly seeking answers and understanding.

And we'll lose all of our garbage thoughts
As we follow the guidance, we hope to rid ourselves of negative and damaging thoughts and feelings.

Lassoed in the web we're losing all of our pride
We are trapped in a web of emotional turmoil and confusion, which is slowly stripping away our sense of self and confidence.

We are so anxious to be free
We are desperately seeking liberation from our emotional turmoil and pain.

Searching for our pasts
We are seeking answers and understanding about our own histories and how they have shaped us.

We play a broken note
As we learn about and confront our pasts and emotions, we often stumble and falter in our attempts to make sense of it all.

Your voice comes from the ruin you call us
Amidst the chaos and destruction of our emotional turmoil, we hear your voice calling us to confront our true selves and our pasts.

Stuck inside our own spell
We are trapped within our own emotional turmoil and confusion, unable to free ourselves from our own minds.

We are overexposed
We are vulnerable and unprotected, having revealed too much of ourselves to the world and to our own emotions.

We are not ourselves tonight!
Our true selves have been obscured by our emotional turmoil and attempts to project strength and confidence, leaving us feeling lost and disconnected from our true identities.

We're all shadows...
We are mere echoes and remnants of who we once were, struggling to find our way back to our true selves amidst the chaos of our emotions and pasts.
