The Helpless Dreams of an Assassin
Unveiling the Dilemma: Dreams, Money, and the Price of Certainty
Lyrics
So sure of what I wanted.
Expressing confidence in personal desires or goals.
But what wanted me?
Raising the question of external influences on one's choices.
Money speaks louder than my dreams.
Highlighting the impact of material wealth overshadowing personal aspirations.
Normal life was something I'd seen as tragedy.
Viewing a conventional life negatively, considering it a tragic experience.
The future is never what it seems.
Expressing uncertainty about the future, suggesting it differs from expectations.
Common life has come so easily.
Reflecting on the ease with which a typical or ordinary life is attained.
Money adds so much to normalcy.
Stating the influence of money on achieving a sense of normalcy.
Better years turned bitter.
Describing a negative transformation in recent years.
Why can't I do what's right for me?
Pondering the difficulty in making choices that align with personal well-being.
Turning the page means burning the versus
Symbolizing a significant change, potentially involving conflicts with others.
Of the ones I wrote this with.
Highlighting collaboration with others in creating something meaningful.
Certainty has come at such a high price
Emphasizing the cost of certainty in decisions made.
But it's the price I pay for peace of mind
Accepting the high price paid for achieving inner peace.
But do I mind the peace that comes along and all things aside,
Questioning the impact of peace on personal desires, setting aside other considerations.
Understand these are my dreams
Affirming ownership of dreams, possibly shared with others for a brief period.
We lived them together for a moment in time.
Recalling shared experiences of living out dreams temporarily.
Is this the beginning of the end?
Pondering whether a current situation marks the beginning of a decline.
Or the end of the beginning?
Questioning whether a situation signifies the end or a new start.
Watch it fade away.
Observing the gradual disappearance of something significant.
Watching this thing change.
Witnessing the transformation of a particular situation.
Common life has come so easily.
Reiterating the ease with which an ordinary life is embraced.
Money adds so much to normalcy.
Reaffirming the role of money in attaining a sense of normalcy.
Better years turned bitter.
Describing a negative shift in recent years, turning positive experiences bitter.
Why can't I do what's right for me?
Expressing frustration about the difficulty in making choices beneficial for personal well-being.
