Lyrics

Soothsayers lied, they said we'd find these new communications something fine

Soothsayers misled us by promising that these new forms of communication would be something excellent.


But it turns out we fight most often every night

Contrary to the promised positive aspects, conflicts and fights have become a frequent part of interactions, particularly at night.


So what you trying to do?

Questioning the purpose or intention behind someone's actions.

Signal to the man in the moon?

Asking if the person is trying to communicate with an unreachable entity or trying to express themselves in an unrealistic way.

Indicate your charity to each and every devil and dude?

Wondering if someone is displaying kindness or goodwill to both negative and positive forces.

What's that I'm hearing you say?

Questioning what the person is expressing or conveying.

Culture is a thing that we make, and ours is like the biggest mistake,

Stating that culture is a human creation and suggesting that their culture seems to be a significant error or failure.

Compromise is phony, full surrender only,

Believing that making concessions or finding middle ground is insincere, advocating for complete submission only.

Worship me and tell me I'm great

Desiring adoration and validation, wanting others to worship and praise them.


Trapped in a web with words we said in silent conversations before bed

Feeling trapped or entangled by past discussions or unspoken words shared before sleeping.


And it turns out it's true, all the kids are at it too

Confirming that even young individuals are engaged in similar communication patterns or issues.


So what you trying to do?

Repeating the earlier question, asking about the intention behind certain actions or expressions.

Signal to the man in the moon?

Reiterating the inquiry about attempting to communicate with an unattainable figure.

Indicate your charity to each and every devil and dude?

Asking if the person is showing generosity or goodwill to both negative and positive entities.

What's that I'm hearing you say?

Repeating the query about the message being conveyed.

Culture is a thing that we make, and ours is like the biggest mistake,

Reaffirming the view that their culture seems to be a significant failure or mistake.

Compromise is phony, full surrender only,

Believing that compromise is disingenuous, advocating only for complete submission.

Worship me and tell me I'm great'

Desiring worship and admiration from others.


Just when you think you've had enough of the politics of the situation someone comments and spoils it for you,

When someone feels they can't take any more of the politics in a situation, another person's comment ruins it further.

Just when you think that you're on the brink of a thawing of tensions, the president's mentioned

When a positive change seems imminent, a mention of the president or authority figure disrupts it.


So what you trying to do?

Repeating the query about intentions behind actions or expressions.

Signal to the man in the moon?

Reiterating the inquiry about communicating with an unattainable entity.

Indicate your charity to each and every devil and dude?

Asking if the person is displaying kindness or goodwill to both negative and positive forces.

What's that I'm hearing you say?

Repeating the query about the message being conveyed.

Culture is a thing that we make, and ours is like the biggest mistake,

Reaffirming the view that their culture seems to be a significant failure or mistake.

Compromise is phony, full surrender only,

Believing that compromise is disingenuous, advocating only for complete submission.

Worship me and tell me I'm great

Desiring worship and admiration from others.
