Everything Old Is New Again
Eternal Echoes: Embracing Life's Renewal Through Loss and Love
Lyrics
Learn to lose, it's easier that way
Learning to accept defeat is a less challenging approach to life.
We've paid our dues, but we can't make life pay
Despite efforts and hardships, life doesn't always offer rewards.
All across the world, people going mad
Global instances of madness and chaos are prevalent.
In their mother's cars, the kids are feeling sad
Youth, symbolized by kids in their mother's cars, is experiencing sadness.
That's how it is, and I'll see you later
Acceptance of the harsh reality, parting ways for the time being.
Everything old is new again
Embracing the cyclical nature of life; old things resurface as new.
Everything under the sun
Everything imaginable exists in the world.
Now that I'm back with you again
A reunion after a separation, expressing affection.
We hug and we kiss
Physical expressions of love like hugging and kissing.
We sit and make lists
Engaging in routine activities and planning together.
We drink and I bandage your wrists
Dealing with emotional scars and providing support.
Wasted youth, there wasn't much to waste
Youth is often squandered, and there's little left to waste.
Down to the bone, and still losing weight
Being emotionally depleted and physically losing weight.
With all the wishing in the world glistening in her eyes
Ambitions reflected in her eyes, but skepticism hinders love.
But when I say I love her, she thinks I'm telling lies
Expressing love is doubted, creating a barrier.
Is it all lost?
Questioning whether anything was truly lost.
No, we never had it
No, because it was never possessed in the first place.
Everything old is new again
Reiteration of life's cycles, the old becoming new again.
Everything under the sun
Everything under the sun encompasses a wide range of experiences.
All of our fears come true again
Facing recurring fears and challenges in life.
Recycle reuse
Advocating for recycling and reusing ideas while resisting some.
Resent and refuse
Harboring resentment and refusing certain inherited beliefs.
Our parent's ideals and views
Rejecting parental ideals and perspectives.
She thinks the afterlife might just be where the action is
Contemplating an afterlife where the real excitement happens.
With high schools built like prisons, she can't find a way to live
Feeling trapped in high school-like structures, struggling to live.
Moved back home to fill the empty nest
Returning home to fill an empty nest, hesitant to explore.
Afraid to roam, in love with second best
Choosing a second-best option out of fear.
While somewhere in the world, she's hosting her own show
Imagining someone else's success while questioning others.
And everyone she questions never seems to know
Others lack self-awareness and direction.
Just who they are and where they are going
A general observation about people's lack of self-awareness.
Everything old is new again
Reaffirmation of life's cycles, where the old resurfaces.
Everything under the sun
Everything under the sun, encompassing all experiences.
Now that I'm without you again
Experiencing life without a significant other, dealing with routine.
I wake up and eat
Engaging in daily activities like eating after waking up.
I go back to sleep
Returning to sleep, perhaps to escape from nightmares.
And let all my nightmares repeat
Nightmares persisting and recurring.
All across the world, people going mad
Global acknowledgment of widespread madness.
