Turn Away
Kontravoid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm at the stage where it's plain to see
With no substance to control myself
I'm on edge with the dying needs, you see
No signs, never coming back
Common sense has gotten to you
I wanna kill what the lights are killin'
No time for these problems
I've got a sense that it's time to leave
I blame myself for what happened
I feel the guilt but it's what I need
Turn away from from me
Turn away from from me
Turn away from from me
No time for these problems
I'm at the stage where it's plain to see
With no substance to control myself
I'm on edge with the dying needs, you see
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
Turned away from from me
The lyrics to Kontravoid's "Turn Away" express a level of desperation and disillusionment with life, which is conveyed through a sense of urgency and repetitiveness. The singer seems to be at a breaking point, unable to cope with their problems and substance abuse, which are forcing them to the edge. They seem to be reaching out for help, but at the same time, they feel guilty as though they deserve to suffer. This internal conflict is expressed in lines such as "I blame myself for what happened, I feel the guilt but it's what I need."
The lyrics also touch on themes of isolation and rejection, as the singer repeatedly asks others to turn away from them. It's unclear whether this is a plea to be left alone to sort out their problems or a desire to push others away because of their own pain. The line, "I wanna kill what the lights are killin'," suggests that the singer feels like they are being suffocated by external pressures and expectations, and they want to break free from this.
Overall, the lyrics to "Turn Away" paint a picture of someone struggling with addiction, guilt, and a sense of hopelessness. The song's repetitive structure and urgent tone convey a sense of desperation and isolation, highlighting the singer's internal turmoil.
