PRESIDENT - RAGE - Dark Side Wins? Here’s Why

Metal scholars, PRESIDENT just released their new single, "RAGE" — and in this breakdown, I dive into the meaning behind the music video, the ballet battle, and the lyrics. The footage used was recorded live at Download festival, the credits go to Shaun Pots, here's the link to the song:
   • Rage - PRESIDENT  

If you want to watch the music video of RAGE, here's the link:
   • PRESIDENT - RAGE  
Why do you think the dancer in black won the battle?
Is this really about rage or something deeper — love, obsession, and self-destruction? I also explored how RAGE connects to PRESIDENT’s previous songs In The Name of the Father and Fearless — and if the band is building a story about hope, or about embracing your dark side or your behavior.
Comment your thoughts down below — did the song hit you emotionally? What's your take?

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like falling trees, I get swayed
I don't wanna behave like this again
Am I still enough for you, would you ever change me?
My heart decays in my sleep
Can we keep it a secret, while we wait?
I'll always belong to you
Good thing you're never changing

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I'll keep calling your name out
But I don't hear if you make a sound
Will you hold me when I'm in the ground?
I keep kicking my way out, could you love me then?
Could you love me then?

[Verse 2]
A sudden life of your own
I can still taste it burning in your soul
Will you still remember me, when all of this is faded?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
And I'll keep calling your name out
But I don't hear if you make a sound
Will you hold me when I'm in the ground?
I keep kicking my way out, could you love me then?
Could you love me then?
