Wasteland Lyrics

Change my attempt, good intentions

Crouched over, you were not there, living in fear
But signs were not really that scarce, obvious tears
But I will not hide you through this, I want you to help them
Please see the bleeding heart perched on my shirt
Die, withdraw, hide in cold sweat, quivering lips
Ignore remorse, naming a kid, living wasteland
This time you've tried all that you can, turning you red

Change my attempt, good intentions
Should I?
Could I?
Here we are with your obsession
Should I?
Could I?

Crowned, hopeless, the article read, "Living Wasteland"
This time you've tried all that you can, turning you red
But I will not hide you through this
I want you to help

Change my attempt, good intentions
Should I?
Could I?
Here we are with your obsession
Should I?
Could I?

Heave the silver, hollow sliver
Piercing through another victim
Turn and tremble, be judgmental
Ignorant to all the symbols
Blind the face with beauty paste
Eventually, you'll one day know

Change my attempt, good intentions
Limbs tied
Skin tight
Self inflicted his perdition
Should I?
Could I?

Change my attempt, good intentions
Should I?
Could I?

Should I?
Could I?

What is the Meaning of Wasteland?

This track delves into the struggle of wanting to change but being trapped in a self-destructive cycle. The lyrics paint a picture of someone living in fear and regret, constantly questioning their choices ("Should I? Could I?"). The term "wasteland" could symbolize a barren emotional state or life devoid of happiness and fulfillment due to one's actions. The line "Change my attempt, good intentions" suggests the person's desire for transformation but is continually thwarted by their own behavior. There's also an appeal for help and understanding from others, indicating the need for support in overcoming personal struggles. Ultimately, it's a poignant exploration of human frailty and the quest for redemption.
