The Quiet Offspring
Embracing Independence: A Tale of Choices
Lyrics
A choice was made and it came clear to me
A decision was made, and its significance became clear to me
The quiet offspring fucked it up again
The quiet and reserved descendant (person) made a mistake again
So I was brought up on the sunny side
I was raised on the positive and optimistic side of life
Got into fake from day one
I embraced falsehood or insincerity from the very beginning
But I knew better then the rest of them
Despite that, I had a better understanding than others
Don't count the hours, don't count the days
Emphasizing the importance of not counting the hours or days
I don't look back in any ways
I don't dwell on the past in any way
Never cared for who or what or when or why
I never cared about who, what, when, or why
Home is where I rest my head
Home is where I find peace and solace
Never cared for who or what or when or why
Reiteration of not caring about the details, emphasizing inner resilience
I carry on when all is said
I continue forward despite everything that has been said
You said I should have learned by now
Someone suggests that I should have learned from past experiences
A father's son so disobedient
I, as a son, have been rebellious and disobedient to my father
Such a burden I have been for thy
Acknowledging the burden I have been to someone
Nothing good enough
Nothing I do is considered good enough
I packed my bags and now you wonder why
I decided to leave, and now there's curiosity about why I did so
Don't count the hours, don't count the days
Reiteration of the importance of not counting hours or days
I don't look back in any ways
Continuing the theme of not dwelling on the past
Never cared for who or what or when or why
Reaffirmation of not caring about specific details
Home is where I rest my head
Emphasizing that home is a place of comfort
Never cared for who or what or when or why
Reiteration of indifference to specific details, focusing on inner strength
I carry on when all is said
Despite everything said, I carry on with determination
Never cared for who or what or when or why
Repetition of not caring about specific details or reasons
Never cared for who or what or when or why
Further repetition of indifference to details or reasons
Never cared for who or what or when or why
Continued emphasis on not caring about specific details or reasons
