Atrophy
Monument of A Memory Lyrics

We're all stoned and headed to the bottom
We are all numb and on a downward spiral that leads us to a bad place.

So damn frozen, I know it's a problem
Feeling like you are stuck and can't move or make any progress.

Freedom in the fall
Finding freedom and liberation in your failures.

Now I've seen it all
Having experienced and witnessed everything firsthand.

Struggle to find a way
Having difficulty trying to find a solution to a problem.

Beaten down by the hands of fate
Feeling defeated and powerless against the circumstances of life.

Don't let go
Don't give up or lose hope.

I feel you slipping away
Something or someone that you care about is starting to slip out of your grasp.

The seams came apart but you're still in the frame
Everything seems to be falling apart, but you're still holding it together.

I don't know if there's much left to say
Feeling like everything has been said and done, and there's not much left to do or say.

We watched all our hopes circling down the drain
Watching our dreams and aspirations slowly fade away and disappear.

I don't care what it takes I'm gonna find myself a way
No matter what happens, I'm going to find a solution to my problem and succeed.

And I know I'll never do it if I can't escape the pain
If I can't find a way to deal with my pain, I won't be able to succeed.

(Beaten down by the hands of fate)
Feeling beaten and defeated by the circumstances of life.

Hands of fate
The uncontrollable and unpredictable nature of life and its circumstances.

Restless sleep my dreams haunt me
Unable to sleep peacefully due to the problems and worries of life that haunt you in your dreams.

I feel your voice in empty sheets
Feeling the absence of someone who you used to share the bed with.

Drown out the world with my ambitions
Using your dreams and aspirations as a way to escape from the real world.

Still failed to make any decisions
Despite your ambitions, you still haven't been able to make any concrete decisions or achieve anything.

And as the pendulum swings
As life goes up and down like a pendulum, swinging between good and bad times.

I swear to god I can change
Believing that you have the potential to change yourself and your situation.

I don't care what it takes I'm gonna find myself a way
Determined to overcome any obstacle and find a way to succeed.

We're all stoned and headed to the bottom
We are all feeling numb and in a downward spiral that leads us to a bad place.

So damn frozen, I know it's a problem
Feeling like you are stuck and can't move or make any progress.

I'd rather stay up here until my body atrophies
Preferring to stay where you are and not progress or improve, even if it leads to physical decay and deterioration.

I know I've got potential
Believing that you have the capability to do great things.

I can ruin everything
Despite your potential, you also have the ability to mess everything up.

I thought that I was the conductor
Thinking that you had control over your life and its circumstances.

I'm just a train barreling down the tracks unobstructed
Realizing that you don't have as much control over your life as you thought, and that you are headed towards a certain outcome whether you like it or not.

I stop for nothing
No obstacle or challenge can stop you from reaching your goals.

Rain down
Referring to negative circumstances and events.

There's nothing there above me
Feeling alone and unsupported during tough times.

Into the ground
Things are getting worse and spiraling out of control.
