Lyrics
I know all of my exits
I am aware of all possible exits in my life
I'm always planning my escape
I am always planning and thinking about escaping from current situations
It's the most aggressive symptom
This constant desire to escape is a strong and forceful symptom
Of this collective phantom pain
This symptom is a shared pain experienced collectively
And the more that you ignore it
Ignoring the desire to escape intensifies the sense of insanity
The more it makes you go insane
Failure to address the urge to escape leads to increased mental distress
Just look around
Observing the current state of affairs
It's the battle of the passwords
There is a struggle related to passwords, possibly metaphorical for challenges
It's the trumpets on the hill
The challenges are symbolized by trumpets on the hill
It's that constant paranoia
Constant paranoia prevails in the environment
It's the final fire drill
There is a sense of urgency and anxiety, akin to a fire drill
And if you won't sing the anthem
If one does not conform or participate, someone else will
They'll go find someone else who will
Authorities or entities are taking strict actions
They're Cracking down
We're living in the future, so shine a little light
We are currently living in a future state, and there is a call to bring positivity
It may not make it any better, I'm just hopin' that it might
Optimism might not solve problems, but there's hope that it could help
I'm not talkin' bout forever, how about just getting through the night
The focus is on surviving the present rather than thinking about the distant future
We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
Reiteration of the need to bring light to the current situation
I'm always lookin' over shoulders
Constant vigilance, uncertainty, and suspicion characterize the speaker's outlook
Not knowing what I'm looking for
The speaker is unsure of what to look for but is always cautious
Now that the feeling someone's watchin'
The feeling of being watched has become a tangible reality
Isn't just a feeling anymore
Society is becoming adept at keeping track and maintaining a balance of power
Now that both sides of the aisle
Polarization is evident in political and social spheres
Are this good at keepin' score
The divisions are well documented and acknowledged
We've crossed a line
A significant threshold has been crossed
There's a madness to the method
There is a method to the madness, and fear is a marketable commodity
There's a market for the fear
Fear is exploited for profit and control
It's that dance out on the razor's edge
A precarious situation is compared to a dangerous dance
The wolf held by the ears
The speaker acknowledges being in a precarious position
It's the man behind the curtain
The truth behind the facade is revealed
It's the weight of awful tears
The burden of deep, painful emotions is felt by everyone
Since the dawn of time
A reference to the enduring human experience of sorrow
We're living in the future, so shine a little light
Encouraging positivity in the present, despite uncertainties
It may not make it any better, I'm just hopin' that it might
Hope is expressed, even if it may not directly improve the situation
I'm not talkin' bout forever, how about just getting through the night
Focus on surviving the challenges of the night rather than long-term concerns
We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
Reiteration of the need to bring light to the current situation
We're living in the future, so shine a little light
Emphasis on the importance of positivity in the current era
It may not make it any better, I'm just hopin' that it might
Hope is expressed, even if it may not directly improve the situation
I'm not talkin' bout forever, how about just getting through the night
Focus on surviving the challenges of the night rather than long-term concerns
We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
Reiteration of the need to bring light to the current situation
