Denial
SilkShadow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting for the time to strike
There's a new sign of times
Nothing will be as you like
How long will I wait
I've been embraced by disbelief
I'm going to make my move
You don't know me
I don't know you
Hide your mental disease!
Words you speak to me
Truly are weak to me
Hide your mental disease!
You judge me as you want
Upon your fragile pedestal
Full of lies you became
Don't you see my denial?
Can you understand your reality?
Have you found your mediocrity?
Has someone bought you integrity?
Now listen to me carefully!
You don't know me
I don't know you
Hide your mental disease!
Words you speak to me
Truly are weak to me
Hide your mental disease!
Denial of your dignity
Denial of your dignity
The opening lines of the song DENIAL by SilkShadow set a dark and foreboding tone as the singer describes their blood running cold and waiting for the time to strike.

The words spoken to them are weak, and the mental state of those doing the judging is called into question. The song's title, DENIAL, becomes more explicit in the final lines, with the singer accusing their critics of denying their dignity.
