Cop
Unveiling the Dark Symphony: A Reflection on Choices
Lyrics
Wonder what it was that made you this way
Wondering about the cause of your current behavior or state of mind
Maybe as a baby you dropped your rattle
Speculating that a childhood incident might have impacted you
And it still rattles you to this day
Suggesting that the childhood incident still affects you
You better practice your evil looks in the mirror
Advising to practice looking evil, but it doesn't affect the speaker
They don't work on me
Asserting immunity to the attempted manipulation
Slowly crawling up from the down low
Slowly rising from a low point
The other cops still call you 'fatso'
Being called derogatory names by colleagues
Short fuse and a top to blow
Having a short temper ready to explode
Unhappy wife, shitty life, hit the bottle
Describing personal problems leading to alcohol abuse
Your whole world dropped from under you
Experiencing a sudden downfall
Left you with sorry excuses
Left with unsatisfactory justifications for actions
Left you with meaningless things to prove
Left with meaningless things to prove oneself
Like why you became a cop
Questioning the reason for choosing to become a police officer
Why did you become a cop?
Repeating the query about becoming a cop, seeking an answer
Wonder what it was that made you this way
Reflecting again on the cause of current behavior
As a boy your toys were taken away
Recalling childhood where possessions were taken
And it still toys with you to this day
Suggesting lingering effects from the childhood incident
You better practice your evil looks in the mirror
Reiterating the advice to practice looking evil, to no effect
They don't work on me
Reaffirming immunity to attempted manipulation
Slowly crawling up from the down low
Describing a slow rise from a low point
The other cops still call you 'fatso'
Continued use of derogatory terms by colleagues
Short fuse and a top to blow
Reiteration of having a short temper
Unhappy wife, shitty life, hit the bottle
Repeating personal struggles leading to alcoholism
Your whole world dropped from under you
Emphasizing a sudden downfall from a former state
Left you with sorry excuses
Left with inadequate justifications
Left you with meaningless things to prove
Left with meaningless goals or attempts to prove oneself
Like why you became a cop
Repeating the inquiry about becoming a cop, seeking understanding
Why did you become a cop?
Continued seeking of the rationale behind becoming a police officer
Shut the fuck up.
Expression of frustration or dismissal
After my court date
After the speaker's court date, they'll forget about the person
I'll forget about you
Intent to forget about the person while in prison
I'll tell my cellmate
Planning to inform a fellow inmate about forgetting the person
I'll forget about you
Reiteration of the intention to forget while incarcerated
After the jail break
After a jailbreak, the intent to forget remains
I'll forget about you
Reiterating the plan to forget after escaping jail
After I'm through singing this song
Even after singing the song, the intention to forget remains
I'll forget about you, I'll forget about you!
Final reaffirmation of the desire to forget
