COLLISION
Rise Against Conformity: Unveiling the Bold Message in 'Collision' by Cool Friend
Lyrics
What will you do with the rest of today
Asking about plans for the remainder of the day.
Will you hide away like you always do in shame
Questioning if the listener will retreat in shame as usual.
This is no game
Stressing the seriousness of the situation, emphasizing it's not a game.
They're running the clock to kill the livestock
Describing a threat to livestock, possibly symbolizing vulnerability.
And all it seems we ever fucking do is TALK, TALK, TALK
Expressing frustration that talking is the primary action taken.
Until they KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.
Highlighting the imminent danger with a repeated knocking sound.
They're happy to lie, laugh day and the night
Pointing out the deceptive nature of those in power who enjoy falsehoods.
They know that if we tried to fight we'd DIE-D-DIE-DIE-DIE
Warning that resistance would result in severe consequences, emphasizing the risk of death.
Come and try...
Challenging the listener to take action.
The only path forward's to be mean 'cause you're right
Suggesting that being assertive or aggressive is necessary for survival.
Be concerned with today and never lose sight
Encouraging focus on the present and maintaining awareness.
Live true to your heart, Live free and make art
Promoting authenticity, freedom, and creativity as a way of life.
When you see the weak you tear them apart
Suggesting a harsh approach toward the weak, possibly reflecting a harsh reality.
Love your country
Advocating love for one's country.
Love your people
Encouraging care for one's people.
Take joy in confronting evil
Promoting the confrontation of evil with joy.
Improve yourself
Emphasizing personal improvement.
Improve your kids
Encouraging the betterment of one's children.
Live by these words
Advising to live by the given principles or values.
COURAGE IS CONTAGIOUS
Stating that courage has a positive, influential impact.
