Now,
You're heroes have fallen.
Championless,
The seas are rising.
So torch every banner,
Every hope of surviving.
Lifetime is waking.
Security has left you,
Treading water.
Now taste the fear.
Tasting the uncertainty.
What will you do? (What will you do?)
When there's nothing left for you to cling to.
What will you do? (What will you do?)
When your life has rot.
Thrive in your emptiness. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/p/parkway_drive/idols_and_anchors.html ]
Burn all you love.
There's no hope for the weak.
Your heroes have died.
There is...
No Hope.
For it still flies,
In the Abyss (In the Abyss),
I'll find one.
Beg for a way,
Out from the nest.
Can you hear it?
Can you hear the sound?
As our broken Idols,
Come crashing down.
Now taste the fear.
Now, taste the fear.
Burn all you love.
There's no hope for the weak.
Your Heroes have died.
Burn all you love.
There's no hope for the weak.

When you put your trust and hope in something that's fallible, your devastation can be that much more horrible when they themselves fall.

Idols are for weak people, if you cannot live for just yourself as yourself then you have a drowning soul. You set aside your inside spirit to be someone else, i am not saying do not look up to anyone, but remember you are not being them you are doing you.

Idols are people you worship or respect. While theres nothing wrong with this, most of the time we overdo it. We let them take over to much of our lives and consequently cant decide for ourselves amongst other unpleasant stuff that your not likely to take note of. Therefore like anchors cut them loose, dont let them drown you when their ships wreck. Really good song,also try and listen to the balance by august burns red,talks about the same thing.
Uh i agree with the first half of vanillia prime's evaluation, "idols drag you down like an anchor. These lyrics highlight how society's problem is the norm and faith about having a hero or idol," but after that, no. I think that simply, when you have lost your idol, you're left to taste fear and struggle for as long as you can hold up, by the lyrics "security has left you treading water. "
Idols drag you down like an anchor. These lyrics highlight how society's problem is the norm and faith about having a hero or idol, and shows the consequences using the metaphor of drowning. --'security has left you treading water' perhaps points towards an idea that having an idol is a fake security to follow your problems/life by, and now your left in a time of desperation to do it yourself, with no practice or training.
