Ever felt like you're teetering on the edge, struggling with deep emotional pain and vulnerability? This song dives into the turmoil of someone grappling with their darkest feelings, hiding away from the world. The narrator questions if revealing their true self would lead to acceptance or abandonment. They paint a vivid picture of isolation and the fear of rejection, wondering if anyone can truly love them despite their flaws. Ultimately, they can't go through with exposing themselves fully—symbolized by "the final cut"—because they're interrupted and perhaps saved by an external distraction. #EmotionalStruggle #Vulnerability #FearOfRejection
The Final Cut
Lyrics
Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes
I can barely define the shape of this moment in time
And far from flying high in clear blue skies
I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide
If you negotiate the minefield in the drive
And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes
And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall
Dial the combination, open the priest hole
And if I'm in I'll tell you (what's behind the wall)
There's a kid who had a big hallucination
Making love to girls in magazines
He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith
Could anybody love him
Or is it just a crazy dream?
And if I show you my dark side
Will you still hold me tonight?
And if I open my heart to you
And show you my weak side
What would you do?
Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
Would you take the children away
And leave me alone?
And smile in reassurance
As you whisper down the phone?
Would you send me packing?
Or would you take me home?
Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings
Thought I oughta tear the curtain down
I held the blade in trembling hands
Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang
I never had the nerve to make the final cut
