Lyrics
What is the root of all madness?
Reflecting on the root cause of madness, questioning its origin.
We idle watching our screens
Observing passively while engaging with electronic screens.
When the frames become violence
When visual content turns violent or disturbing.
The eyes never leave their seats
Eyes remain fixed on screens, unaffected by the disturbing content.
It takes a second to seep in
A realization that takes a moment to fully comprehend.
Feeling a need to show it
Feeling a compulsion to share the realization.
To whos deemed worthy
Sharing with those considered deserving or appropriate.
you see
An acknowledgment of the act of sharing.
Desensitized and morbidly curiously free
Being desensitized and curiously free in a morbid way.
It's just a sign of the times
Labeling the observed behavior as a sign of the times.
But we like and weave it
Engaging with and embracing the prevailing behavior.
Let it grow in our cells
Allowing the behavior to grow and become ingrained in oneself.
It's takes so much up in our heads
The impact of the behavior on one's thoughts and mind.
it's like a personal hell
Describing the experience as a personal hell.
Whenever you picture that fear
The fear associated with certain thoughts or images.
No wonder we're all empty
Explaining the emptiness felt collectively.
We all w
Interruption in the line, possibly a stylistic choice.
itness a war
Observing or experiencing a war-like situation.
Most of us are safe
Highlighting the safety of most individuals despite the observed chaos.
as we go off to work
Transitioning to everyday routines, like going to work.
Ah fuck
An exclamation expressing frustration or realization.
It's just a sign of the times
Reiterating that the observed behavior is indicative of the times.
I just want to feel for a second
An earnest desire to experience genuine emotions for a brief moment.
All of your favourite bands talk about feeling
Referencing that influential bands often discuss the theme of feeling.
Feeling, not feeling
Contrasting the act of feeling with not feeling.
(Chorus)
Chorus - Repeating the idea that observed behavior is a sign of the times.
