Lyrics
My oh my
Expressing surprise or astonishment, setting the tone for reflection.
It was picture perfect
Describing a moment that seemed flawless and carefully planned.
By design
Suggesting that the perfection was intentional and part of a plan.
Every color flourished
Highlighting the vibrant and flourishing nature of the surroundings.
But the grass has gone grey
Noticing a change or deterioration, symbolized by the grass turning grey.
And the people they say
Reflecting on public opinion, with people questioning choices made.
Why did I vote for scar
Regret about supporting someone symbolized by the reference to voting for "scar."
My work can't decay
Emphasizing personal commitment to work, resilience against decay.
There's something at play
Hinting at external factors influencing the situation.
But I'm afraid the people know who they are
Acknowledging public awareness of the situation but fearing recognition.
Sitting on a hollow throne
Symbolizing a position of power that lacks substance or authenticity.
The people are against me
Perceiving opposition from the public, feeling isolated.
They think I've lost control
Admitting a perception of losing control over the situation.
Sitting on a hollow throne
Reiterating the emptiness or lack of genuine authority in the position.
They've told me there's a resistance
Being informed about a resistance movement but expressing reluctance to engage.
But I won't fight this war alone
Commitment to face challenges, but with a desire for collective action.
I'm sitting on a hollow throne
Reiterating the symbolism of an insubstantial and hollow position of power.
People say they're against me
Repeating public opposition and the feeling of losing control.
They think I've lost control
Echoing the sentiment of a perceived loss of control.
Sitting on a hollow throne
Reiterating the emptiness or lack of genuine authority in the position.
They say there's a resistance
Acknowledging the existence of resistance but expressing a desire for collective action.
But I won't fight this war alone
Emphasizing a reluctance to face challenges alone despite the awareness of resistance.
