Divorce
N.O.D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
thinking about ‘time heals all sorrow’ but still I am feeling this scorn
these shadows above, this rumble inside – isn’t there anything else?
I feel pity one day, another raw hate – but no satisfaction at all
hell is no place, it’s inside my mind – someone displaced me in time
aimlessly wandering, where is the meaning – at least I forgot all the pain
whom do I serve? why didn’t denied? has anyone seen my spine?
trade-off ‘til death, the whole way just led by fucking dogmatic sick lies
what’s going wrong? who has been right? environment causes deny
all friendly advices are full of (self-)lie traps, as contempt germ deep inside
social relationships fading away, then respect was replaced by doubts
as tears dry away I feel pity and rage, but it doesn’t make it all right
aimlessly fulfilling my dogmatic life – another displaced soul, lost between the times
time is ticking – chances simply flit away, a heart is screaming
‘no matter’ that is all you say – indifference protective, but as you lay your head to sleep
recognize – these dreams! not that stencil!
who mislead me silently? let me out, let me free, let me be!
who built this cage of fear and facades? it was me, it was me, it was me!
will I once awake from my broken dreams? let them out, let them be, let them free!

@Gayle ,, 🌿🎭 elizabeth, her father george and her son charles could never be king if historic lover king edward didn't abandon british throne in 1936 for the sake of his love w.w. simpson. so elizabeth, her all fans and her 14 generations should and must pay gratitude to king edward. they also beg pardon from diana for the injustice and crimes done to her by elizabeth and her lame character son charles and her family whole life. thank you.🎭🌿
Gayle
She wasn't a Saint. She made Charles selfish and mean.
Live in the moment
The only reason the late Queen ER made the TV tribute to Diana during her passing it’s because she was pressured by the British people. Peridot. They are all now gone and have left this drama called life. marrying to RF did not give her a happy marriage but gain made her the people’s Princess/Queen. Periodt

🌿 the honest naive girl diana couldn't find and understand, but all things were done with full support of elizabeth and her family.
with the abuse she diana faced from charles and other members of this man's family during whole life, most humanitarian, most simple, most beloved daughter in the world diana lost her everything in her cheated marriage -- her peace, her essence, her joy, her babies, her title, her confidence, her sanity and eventually her life.
💐*r.i.e.p. diana the beautiful hearted well wisher of the world people.*💐.🌿
Gayle
She abused Dian too. Her husband loved Diana and knew what was going on. He tried to knock sense into Charles but Charles never obey his father. His father was the most intelligent one in the whole monarchy.

It’s like there’s an undeniable void in the world since Diana left. What a huge difference she would’ve made if she became the queen.

A homewrecker becoming queen consort is like a shitty plot-twist in an unjust royalty webtoon, ngl

You black folks are so uneducated

@Delores P. the royal family also would not allow Charles to marry Camilla because when he met her she had already had “a past.” In other words, she wasn’t a virgin. At that time the RF was still living in the dark ages and said the heir to the throne had to marry a virgin. It was ridiculous, even in the 1970s.
