No Way Out
P.P.C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I went away for a whole lot of days
And stripped the soul right outlaw me
Lead away in a crimson haze
The red was rain over me

There ain't no way outta here
I try to scream, I can't even speak
Why am I the only one
I can't get out and I can't go on
There ain't no way out of here
Forever red and I'm never free
Climb the wall, I can't hold on I can't go back and I can't go on

There were faces in the dark and
In me I could not see
The mirror cracked in a million pieces
And so did I cause Johnny's me

I'll fade forever black away
I'll give all my tomorrows for just one good today




I'm numb to feel, don't know what's real
The ghost is killing me

Line by Line Meaning

I went away for a whole lot of days
I left for a long time


And stripped the soul right outlaw me
My spirit was broken during my absence


Lead away in a crimson haze
I was taken away in a red cloud


The red was rain over me
Blood was spilling on me


There ain't no way outta here
I'm trapped


I try to scream, I can't even speak
I'm so overwhelmed I can't even speak


Why am I the only one
I feel alone in my struggle


I can't get out and I can't go on
I am stuck and unable to move forward


Forever red and I'm never free
I am forever marked by the trauma


Climb the wall, I can't hold on I can't go back and I can't go on
I am trying to escape but can't find a way out


There were faces in the dark and
I saw faces in the darkness


In me I could not see
But I couldn't recognize myself


The mirror cracked in a million pieces
The image I have of myself is shattered


And so did I cause Johnny's me
I lost my sense of identity


I'll fade forever black away
I will never be the same again


I'll give all my tomorrows for just one good today
I would do anything for a better present


I'm numb to feel, don't know what's real
I'm emotionally detached and don't know what's true


The ghost is killing me
The weight of my past is destroying me
