Cut the Line
Breaking Free: Unmasking Life's Illusions with Charlie Foxtrot's 'Cut the Line'
Lyrics
Forgive my ignorance
Expressing a request for forgiveness due to lack of knowledge or understanding.
But what's the point of this
Questioning the purpose or significance of a situation.
Backwards, convoluted trick
Describing the situation as confusing and twisted in a backward manner.
We're not getting younger
Highlighting the inevitability of aging.
We're just falling under
Noting the decline or deterioration, moving away from a desirable goal.
Farther from the carrot on the stick
Metaphorically referencing the unattainable goal as a "carrot on the stick."
All I ever wanted was the sky
Expressing a desire for something lofty or ambitious, like the sky.
And all I've ever gotten was a lie
Feeling deceived, as the reality received differs from the desired aspiration.
Just borders and frames
Reducing aspirations to mere boundaries and structures.
Numbers and names
Reducing aspirations to mere numbers and labels.
Let's cut the line and multiply
Advocating for breaking free from constraints and increasing opportunities.
Let's bomb the office parks
Metaphorically suggesting a radical change, possibly in a work context.
Cause you're a work of art
Complimenting someone as a masterpiece and expressing a desire to spend time with them.
And I want to spend all my time in you
Expressing a desire to break away from a conventional work schedule (6 to 3).
Quit that 6 to 3
Suggesting a rebellious action against corporate structures like the FCC.
And come make the FCC
Encouraging personal growth and learning through unconventional means.
Go red and learn a thing or two
Reiterating the desire for something ambitious, like the sky, amidst deception.
All I ever wanted was the sky
