Sound On
Unveiling Life's Symphony: Finding Silence Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
Just make it stop, that noise in my body
Feeling overwhelmed by internal turmoil or discomfort, wishing for the disturbance to cease.
There's a calm night but I can get no sleep
Despite the peaceful external environment, unable to find peace of mind and rest.
Thinking about what I am and what I could have been
Reflecting on one's present identity and pondering the potential paths not taken in life.
Is it too late to do something with this fear
Contemplating if it's too late to confront and overcome a deep-seated fear.
1:28 am, I feel like I've just run a marathon
Feeling mentally exhausted, likening the tiredness to the aftermath of a physically demanding feat.
Asking myself, what is here to chase after all
Questioning the pursuit of goals or desires, pondering their significance.
Everybody knows better what I should do with my life
Sense of being advised or judged by others about life choices.
Drown by your expectations, that I am almost forgetting mine
Feeling overwhelmed or suffocated by the expectations set by others, losing sight of personal aspirations.
Now the music is on
Indication of the music starting to play.
And I hear no more
Unable to hear external voices or distractions due to the music.
What you're saying to me
Not able to perceive or understand what someone is communicating.
Now I hear nothing at all
Complete absence of auditory perception, focusing solely on the music.
Except the sound of the strings
Awareness of the musical elements: strings and drum beats.
And the beats of the drums
Engagement with the instrumental aspects of the music.
Sorry mate, what are you saying
Unable to comprehend or pay attention to external conversation due to the focus on the music.
Now I hear nothing at all
Similar to line 12, indicating complete disconnection from external sounds.
The world is like a play with damn bad actors
Comparing life to a poorly enacted drama, where most people exhibit similar behaviors or personas.
Where most of them pose the same character
Observation of societal conformity, where many adopt identical roles or personalities.
People take classes to learn how to breath, how to feel
Commentary on people learning basic human functions and emotions, associating it with authenticity.
How to make sex and they call it being real
Critique on society's perception of authenticity, relating it to superficial behaviors.
There's one point we're not getting
Highlighting a crucial point often overlooked despite the inevitable nature of life.
While our hearts are still beating
While life continues, acknowledging the temporary nature of existence.
The life is temporary
Emphasizing the inescapable reality of mortality.
And there's no escape
Encouragement to detach from external influences or voices.
So turn off
Directive to silence external pressures or influences.
Their voice
Advocating for authenticity and being true to oneself.
And be you
Encouragement to break the silence or inaction and take a step forward.
Just once
Reinforcing the presence of the music, indicating a continued focus on it.
Step up from your silent circle
Urge to break free from a passive or isolated state.
Now the music is on
Reiteration of the music's presence and its impact on auditory perception.
And I hear no more
Similar to line 10, being unable to hear external voices due to the music.
What you're saying to me
Continued inability to understand external communication due to focus on the music.
Now I hear nothing at all
Complete disconnection from external sounds, immersed solely in the musical elements.
Except the sound of the strings
Reiteration of the awareness and appreciation of the instrumental elements.
And the beats of the drums
Engagement with and focus on the music's instrumental aspects.
Sorry mate, what you're saying
Repeated inability to comprehend external conversation due to music's influence.
Now I hear nothing at all
Complete absence of external auditory perception, centered solely on the music.
