War
HEDp.e. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm as blind as I seem
Cause all of the dreams
That I really cared about
Are gone with black wings
And I'm probably
More suicidal than ever now
Knock me down and toss me around
Don't wanna help myself off the ground
Please just push me aside
I know I'll die when everything's falling down
Don't start with your ways of making me say
That I'm not truly alone
I'll begin to cry and go back inside
Where I truly belong
Don't wanna believe the lies
That I'm not below what's listed above
Don't wanna think of the things
That you say I should really think of
I don't wanna live today
Nobody ever knew
I don't wanna die this way
I know something's always new
But I just can't seem to find a reason
For myself to move on
I don't wanna die this way
Still always in vain
Now I'm stuck in my room
With a looming sense of doom and nothing to prove
I know I'm worthless my feelings exhumed
Waiting for the dismal night to resume
So maybe I give up the bout
The drought
Stop my search for a simpler way out
And force my kind and I to fall out
So not a single soul would ever doubt
When I don't show up for my life the next day
Cause I'm still supposedly waiting at home
Not even crying
I'm just not dying
I've felt this way too long I'm alone
Don't wanna live a little longer
I know I still have to try
Don't wanna fight for my life
Is it worth it or should I die
I don't wanna live today
Nobody ever knew
I don't wanna die this way
I know something's always new
But I just can't seem to find a reason
For myself to move on
I don't wanna die this way
Still always in vain
I don't wanna live today
Nobody ever knew
I don't wanna die this way
I know something's always new
But I just can't seem to find a reason
For myself to move on
I don't wanna die this way
Still always in vain
There won't be a time I'll think I'll ever be more than okay
Nothing can change my mind inside, no matter what they say
I'll live my life two steps behind but before I die
I should sort this mess made by a war between two minds
There won't be a time I'll think I'll ever be more than okay
Nothing can change my mind inside, no matter what they say
I'll live my life two steps behind but before I die
I should sort this mess made by a war between two minds
There won't be a time I'll think I'll ever be more than okay
Nothing can change my mind inside, no matter what they say




I'll live my life two steps behind but before I die
I should sort this mess made by a war between two minds

I'm as blind as I seem

Please just push me aside
I implore you to disregard me


I know I'll die when everything's falling down
I am aware that my demise will coincide with the collapse of everything around me


Don't start with your ways of making me say
Do not initiate your methods of manipulation to make me speak


That I'm not truly alone
That I am not genuinely isolated


I'll begin to cry and go back inside
I will commence weeping and retreat internally


Where I truly belong
To the place where I genuinely fit in


Don't wanna believe the lies
I do not wish to accept the falsehoods

Yet, I am unable to locate a rationale


For myself to move on
To motivate myself to progress


Still always in vain
Continually futile


Now I'm stuck in my room
Presently, I am trapped within my confined space


With a looming sense of doom and nothing to prove
Enduring an impending feeling of catastrophe and lacking any validation


I know I'm worthless my feelings exhumed
I am aware of my lack of value, my emotions unearthed


Waiting for the dismal night to resume
Apathetically anticipating the return of the gloomy night


So maybe I give up the bout
Perhaps I surrender the struggle


The drought
The prolonged period of dryness and emptiness


Stop my search for a simpler way out
Cease my quest for an easier means of escape


And force my kind and I to fall out
Compel myself and those like me to sever ties


So not a single soul would ever doubt
So that no one would ever question


When I don't show up for my life the next day
When I fail to appear for my existence the following day


Cause I'm still supposedly waiting at home
Because I am allegedly still waiting at home


Not even crying
Not even shedding tears


I'm just not dying
I am simply not perishing


I've felt this way too long I'm alone
I have experienced this state for an extended period, feeling isolated


Don't wanna live a little longer
I do not wish to prolong my existence


I know I still have to try
I am aware that I must still make an effort


Don't wanna fight for my life
I do not want to struggle for my survival


Is it worth it or should I die
Is it worthwhile or should I choose to end my life


There won't be a time I'll think I'll ever be more than okay
I cannot envision a moment where I will consider myself better than simply alright


Nothing can change my mind inside, no matter what they say
No external influence can alter my thoughts and perceptions, regardless of what others express


I'll live my life two steps behind but before I die
I will exist in a constant state of falling behind, but prior to my demise


I should sort this mess made by a war between two minds
I should resolve the chaos resulting from the conflict between two opposing thoughts or perspectives

@saoirsewojownik830

that would be intensely ironic, in a similar way to Born in the USA being thought of as a patriotic anthem. if anything it would be a perfect US Army theme as a testament to how retarded the average soldier is.
