Warpath
The Last Ten Seconds of Life Lyrics

I thought this beast was dead
The singer believed that a horrible situation was over and done with.

Purge, I will; everything I have done
The singer will cleanse themselves of their past actions.

Purge myself for what it's worth
The singer will try to make up for their past mistakes.

I thought this beast was dead, but I was dead wrong
The situation the artist thought was over is still very much alive and active.

So wrong
The artist regrets their previous assumption.

Feeling everything in this place at once
The singer is overwhelmed by their surroundings.

How hard it is to handle
The singer is having difficulty managing the emotions and sensations they are experiencing.

With this body, an armor that is so meaningless
The artist feels that their physical form is useless in protecting them from their internal struggles.

I am fighting for my life and no one knows a thing
The artist is dealing with a situation that is life-threatening, but no one around them is aware of it.

Why do you think the body goes from skin and lush to bones and decay?
The artist is questioning the inevitability of death and the decay of the flesh.

Because that is all there is in the first place
The singer believes that the cycle of life, death, and decay is a fundamental aspect of existence.

On a warpath
The artist is determined to fight and survive.

Until I die
The singer will never stop fighting until they either overcome their situation or perish.

Under the influence of my own demise and under pressure of how and why
The singer is grappling with the reality of their own mortality and the stress of the situation they find themselves in.

It left me
The singer was abandoned by something or someone that they were relying on.

Not alive, but not dead
The artist is in a state of limbo between life and death.

When the body fights back it always wins
The artist believes that the human body is capable of incredible feats of survival.

Not happy, but not sad
The singer's emotions are complex and difficult to define.

Where do I stand?
The singer is questioning their place in the world and their path forward.

I will never give up
The artist is determined to keep fighting.

I will only change
The artist will adapt and evolve as needed to survive.

Loving the rush
The artist thrives on the adrenaline of intense situations.

Undertaker eyes
The singer's eyes are dark and ominous, like those of a funeral director.

On a warpath
The artist is single-mindedly pursuing their goal of survival or victory.

Until I die
The singer will not stop until their situation is resolved, regardless of the cost.

I wish I could vomit the emotions that swell inside
The singer wants to expel and confront their difficult feelings rather than suppressing them.

So I can see them for what they really are
The singer wants to gain clarity and understanding about their emotions.

Fall to my knees and bathe in what's collected
The artist wants to fully immerse themselves in their emotions and process them.

To accept instead of deny
The artist wants to face their emotions head-on rather than ignore or deny them.
