Flesh and Bone
Unveiling Life's Illusions: Flesh, Bone, and Time
Lyrics
Pushing Paper like so many men will
Engaged in mundane work, like many others.
Write it all down because I can't sit still
Compelled to document thoughts due to restlessness.
Watching the mountain will make you scream
Observing challenges can be distressing.
Money's good but there's no silver lining
Wealth is present, but there's no positive outcome.
Where did the time go
Reflecting on the passage of time.
We used to hold the world in our hands
Recalling a time when they felt powerful.
Satellites in your eyes glow
Metaphorically, someone's eyes radiate like satellites.
Won't be held by flesh and bone
Emphasizing the inability to be controlled by physical constraints.
Happens again
Repeating a negative experience.
Roles reversed you know we're dealt bad hands
Roles reversed, facing difficult circumstances.
I'm falling apart, I know you'd understand
Expressing personal breakdown, seeking empathy.
Born in a plastic bag with both boots on my feet
Metaphorical birth scenario, equipped for challenges.
This test tube universe never was discreet
Critiquing a universe lacking subtlety.
Where did the time go
Continued reflection on the passage of time.
We used to hold the world in our hands
Recollection of a time of influence and control.
Satellites in your eyes glow
Reiterating the captivating nature of someone's gaze.
Won't be held by flesh and bone
Asserting resilience against physical limitations.
