[Intro]
After all…
(It’s quiet for the fall)

[Verse 1]
Throwing stones
(Without a sound)
Till there are moans
(When a head is found)

[Bridge]
After all…
(It’s quiet for the fall)

[Chorus]
Dropping like a rock
(Quiet on the way down)
Comes to a stop
(And the sounds resound)

[Verse 2]
Throwing bricks
(Without a sound)
Add stones and sticks
(To being head bound)

[Bridge]
After all…
(It’s quiet for the fall)

[Chorus]
Dropping like a rock
(Quiet on the way down)
Comes to a stop
(And the sounds resound)

[Outro]
After all…
(It’s quiet for the fall)
But it’s the bit
(From the hit)
That’s oh so loud
(Above the crowd)

Then, ya know…
(Let go?)

[Chorus]
The abscess absence
(A bliss)
Now a loss
(In the abyss)

[Verse 2]
No physical (No emotional)
Restriction (or limitation)
(But first held down
… freedom bound)

Then, ya know…
(Let go?)

[Chorus]
The abscess absence
(A bliss)
Now a loss

The pain….

ABOUT THE SONG
A lack of confinement means the absence of physical or emotional restriction, restraint, or limitation. It describes a state of being free to move, act, or express oneself without boundaries, unlike a situation where one is being held, imprisoned, or limited in space or freedom.  

  • Physical:
    A lack of confinement means there are no physical walls, bars, or other restrictions preventing movement. For example, an animal that is “free-range” lacks confinement and is able to roam freely. 

  • Emotional/Metaphorical:
    It can also refer to a lack of emotional or social restriction. For example, someone might feel “unconfined” in their creativity, or their joy could be described as “unconfined” because it isn’t limited by fear or doubt. 

  • Legal:
    In a legal context, a lack of confinement is the opposite of false imprisonment, which requires the restraint of freedom. A person who is not being held against their will has no confinement.
