Unconditional
Beyond Mirrors: Jackson Fields' Unconditional Reflections
Lyrics
Take the city back
Expressing a desire to reclaim control of the city.
I don't want it any more
Declaring a lack of interest in the city any longer.
The stones our fathers built on bad ideas
Reflecting on structures built by previous generations based on flawed concepts.
This fighting over mirrors
Commenting on conflicts arising from superficial concerns like appearance.
Has me talking to myself
Feeling isolated and engaging in internal dialogue due to the mentioned conflicts.
And my conscience was a parking lot
Describing inner conflict or guilt, metaphorically comparing it to a parking lot.
But tell me man
Prompting someone to share their perspective or experiences.
Does your world end at your fingertips
Questioning the extent of someone's awareness or concern, particularly about the world around them.
Does your flag turn in the breeze
Asking about the responsiveness of one's loyalty or identity symbolized by a flag.
Does your heart beat for significance
Questioning the depth of emotional engagement and purpose.
Are you who you wanted to be
Reflecting on personal growth and whether one has become the desired version of themselves.
Leave the basket
Encouraging the abandonment of something symbolic, possibly a burden or attachment.
I'm not finished with your clothes
Indicating a continuation or unfinished business related to personal belongings.
You'd think the spiders would be rid of me by now
Suggesting resilience in the face of challenges, likening the situation to spiders trying to eliminate the narrator.
It's kinda silly
Referring to the absurdity of counting small gains while aiming for more significant achievements.
Counting pennies by the pound
Using a metaphor to express the triviality of focusing on small details.
When all I wanted was a photograph
Expressing a desire for a meaningful memory or connection, possibly through a photograph.
But tell me man
Repeating the question about the depth of awareness or concern, emphasizing the individual's world.
Does your world end at your fingertips
Repeating the question about the extent of one's loyalty or identity.
Does your flag turn in the breeze
Repeating the question about the responsiveness of loyalty or identity symbolized by a flag.
Does your heart beat for significance
Repeating the question about the depth of emotional engagement and purpose.
Are you who you wanted to be
Reiterating the introspective reflection on personal growth and self-realization.
Unconditional conditional me
Highlighting the complexity of the narrator, suggesting conditions on their unconditional nature.
