No Point
Embracing Desolation: A Ballad of Lost Purpose
Lyrics
You're always telling me
You consistently inform me
That nothing's wrong
Assuring me that nothing is amiss
You're always telling me
Reiterating the notion that everything is fine
That I should just get a job
Suggesting that obtaining employment is the solution
But I know that won't help
Expressing skepticism that working will resolve issues
'Cause nothing does
Implying that no remedy is effective
And after 18 years
Reflecting on 18 years and acknowledging irreversible aspects
Some things can't be undone
Recognizing the permanence of certain consequences
There's no point
Emphasizing the futility of certain actions
There's no point
Repeating the assertion that there is no purpose
Losing feeling
Describing a state of emotional numbness
Feeling no joy
Conveying a lack of happiness or pleasure
Can't seem to find a purpose
Expressing difficulty in finding a meaningful goal
Just living to survive
Indicating existence solely for survival
I'll never be anything
Admitting to a perceived lack of potential achievements
'Cause there's nothing that I like
Stating a disinterest in available options
I'm losing motivation
Noting a decline in drive or incentive
I'm starting not to care
Expressing a growing apathy
I can't feel anything
Describing an emotional numbness, except for anger and despair
Except anger and despair
Highlighting predominant negative emotions
There's no point
Reiterating the lack of purpose or meaning
There's no point
Affirming the sense of futility
Losing feeling
Restating the emotional numbness
Feeling no joy
Reiterating the absence of joy or positive emotions
