Torn
Nylist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Scared to break free from
To break free
Break free from this too
Free from this. Too scared
From this
Too scared to break free
Scared to break free from
Break free from this too
Free from this. Too scared
From this
Buried in skin. Suffocating within
Can't rip my way out without feeling the pain
How far can I abandon myself?
A new day goes by, still I'm here with no one by my side
I miss the way things were, but now I question this life
For when we die
I've been searching for far too long to find the answers
For when we die
Too scared to break free from this
And put an end to my consciousness
Why must we leave this place behind?
Why must we leave this place behind?
How long have I been torn apart?
How long have I been torn apart?
Will a part of me exist when my blood is on the floor?
Will a part of me resist when I can't take it anymore?
Do I really exist? I can't grasp this concept of reality!
Too scared to break free
Scared to break free from
To break free
Break free from this too
Free from this. Too scared
From this
The lyrics to Nylist's song "Torn" delve into the feelings of being trapped and suffocated, while also questioning the purpose and meaning of life. The repeated phrase "Too scared to break free" captures the fear and hesitation the singer feels towards liberating themselves from their current circumstances. They are afraid of the unknown and uncertain consequences that breaking free may bring.
The line "Buried in skin. Suffocating within" paints a vivid image of the singer feeling trapped within their own body, unable to escape the pain and struggle that accompanies their desire for freedom. They express a longing for the way things used to be, possibly reminiscing about happier times, but now find themselves questioning the very purpose of their existence.
The lyrics also touch upon the theme of mortality, with the line "For when we die" indicating a contemplation of what lies beyond. The singer has been searching for answers for too long, yearning to understand the meaning of life and what awaits after death.
As the song progresses, the uncertainty deepens, with the singer questioning if a part of them will continue to exist after their physical body perishes. They express resistance towards the pain and struggle they are experiencing, and grapple with the concept of reality and their own existence.
Overall, "Torn" explores the emotional turmoil of feeling imprisoned both internally and externally, and the complex thoughts and questions that arise from such a state.
