Pack Animals
Reflections on Modern Struggles: Pack Animals Unveiled
Lyrics
I keep thinking ahead
I am contemplating the future.
To when I don't have to lose my head
Anticipating a time when I won't be overwhelmed or distressed.
But this is now and I've just sung to the crowd
The present moment involves singing to the audience.
Just just just look at me go
An expression of confidence and self-assurance.
Here comes the man in the room
A new person enters the scene.
Looks like he wants my attention
He appears desiring attention.
Look at him leaning in now he wants my attention
Observing his attempt to grab attention.
Says everybody around him is being too sensitive
Claims others are overly sensitive around him.
I'm not being too sensitive
Denial of being too sensitive.
I keep thinking ahead
Reiteration of thoughts about the future.
To when I don't have to lose my head
Desire to avoid losing composure.
All the agents in the agency
Reference to agents in the agency exploiting the speaker.
Dot dot dot dot dot dot exploiting me
Symbolic representation of exploitation.
He smiles and smiles and he takes and takes
Depiction of someone taking advantage with a smiling demeanor.
Spends all day daydreaming of handshakes
Individual daydreaming about social approval.
He says you know what the bees make, the bees make money
Comparison of the speaker to bees, suggesting a mere tool for profit.
He says you're just like the bees, an instrument for money
Confirmation of being viewed as a means for financial gain.
Just an instrument for money
Reiteration of being seen as a tool for money.
I keep thinking ahead
Continuation of thoughts about the future.
To when I don't have to lose my head
Desire to avoid losing composure, repeating earlier sentiment.
But all my thoughts are just confusing me
Confusion arising from conflicting thoughts.
Cause I keep looking for change
The search for change in circumstances.
Maybe I'm thinking too much
Speculation on overthinking and its consequences.
He says I'm being too sensitive
Accusation of being overly sensitive by the new person.
Well a change is gonna come but maybe it's come too late
Hope for change, but concerns about its timing.
I heard last night my friend kicked a man in the face
Anecdote about a friend's violent action, possibly in frustration.
I'm not being too sensitive
Reiteration of not being too sensitive.
