DREAM THEATER

- Wither Lyrics

Let it out, let it out, fill the empty space
So insecure find the words and let it out
Staring down, staring down, nothing comes to mind
Find the place turn the water into wine

But I feel I'm getting nowhere
And I'll never see the end

So I wither and render myself helpless
I give in and everything is clear
I breakdown and let the story guide me

Turn it on, turn it on, let the feelings flow
Close your eyes, see the ones you used to know
Open up, open up, don't struggle to relate
Lure it out, help the memory escape

Still barrenness consumes me
And I feel like giving up

So I wither and render myself helpless
I give in and everything is clear
I breakdown and let the story guide me
I wither and give myself away

Like reflections on the page
The world's what you create

I drown in hesitation, my words come crashing down
And all my best creations burn into the ground
The thought of starting over leaves me paralyzed
Tear it out again, another one that got away

I wither and render myself helpless
I give in and everything is clear

I wither and render myself helpless
I give in and everything is clear
I breakdown and let the story guide me
I wither and give myself away

Like reflections on the page
The world's what you create
The world's what you create

Let it out, let it out

What is the meaning behind Wither lyrics?


When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Dream Theater's 'Wither' tackles the emotional side of being in a rut and not being able to produce anything good, represented by wilting and thus making oneself powerless. The song depicts the conflict between the desire to produce and the fear caused by self-doubt, and the fear of starting over, ultimately pointing out the importance of self-evaluation and the influence of one's actions on the world. The lyrics of Wither are mainly centered around despair, angst, reflection, heartbreak, and nostalgia. In the same breath, the song acknowledges the necessity of the struggle with self-expression, the feelings of impotence and surrender, and the frustration of being creative. The lyrics touch upon the themes of insecurity and emotional struggle, which may not be appropriate for very young kids without parental supervision. Even though there is no bad language or violent content, the emotional intensity and allusions to the state of powerlessness imply that some of the material might be suitable for older children only and thus need parental guidance.
