Fractals
Embracing Broken Beauty: Unveiling the Meaning of 'Fractals'
Lyrics
Are we just smaller versions of a bigger whole
Questioning whether individuals are miniature representations of a larger collective entity.
Are you the rivers in your veins
Contemplating if the veins in one's body are akin to rivers.
Am I the flakes that become snow
Wondering if personal contributions are like individual flakes that collectively form something greater, like snow.
And you might believe that everything is broken
Expressing a belief that everything is damaged or imperfect.
Fragments of sentences we haven't spoken
Acknowledging incomplete communication and unspoken thoughts.
But maybe
Introducing the possibility of an alternative perspective or solution.
Are we just jagged lines across a buried seed
Considering if individuals are irregular lines over a hidden potential for growth.
Are the shapes inside of sun disks
Questioning the similarity between shapes inside the sun and tree branches.
The same as the arms of trees
Exploring the idea that certain elements may share commonalities.
Been saying we're a shell of what we used to be
Acknowledging a perceived decline from a past state.
But maybe we're smaller
Raising the question of whether individuals are inherently smaller.
Are we just smaller
Repeating the idea that individuals may be smaller than perceived.
And I get lost in finding comfort this time
Expressing a personal struggle in seeking comfort.
Fractals all around us
Referring to the presence of fractals, complex patterns, in the surroundings.
In hopes that I have found us
Expressing hope in discovering unity or understanding.
There's beauty in these broken designs
Finding beauty in imperfect or broken designs.
Now I know there is nothing to be fixed
Realizing that there may be nothing inherently flawed that needs fixing.
Oh, can we exist unfinished
Questioning the necessity of being complete or perfected.
Are we just clouds up in the northern hemisphere
Contemplating whether individuals are like clouds in a specific geographic location.
Taking up dreams that I've leaped for
Describing dreams pursued but feared by someone else.
But that you've always feared
Highlighting the tension between personal aspirations and the fears of others.
And you'll get mad at the world
Expressing frustration with the cyclical nature of the world.
For spinning round and round
Searching for security in a tumultuous environment.
Looking for a forlorn safe and sound
Seeking safety in a world perceived as lonely or abandoned.
And I get lost in finding comfort this time
Reiterating the struggle to find comfort in difficult times.
Fractals all around us
Repeating the presence of fractals as a recurring theme.
In hopes that I have found us
Expressing hope in finding unity or understanding amidst complexity.
There's beauty in these broken designs
Finding beauty in imperfect or broken designs (repeated theme).
Now I know there is nothing to be fixed
Reiterating the realization that there may be nothing inherently flawed that needs fixing.
Oh I know if the miles get long
Acknowledging the potential challenges of distance but expressing commitment.
I'll still see you up the road
Believing that a connection persists even in unknown circumstances.
Even though this is all unknown
Acknowledging uncertainty but maintaining hope.
I'll keep carrying a little hope
Committing to carry hope despite challenges.
That these lines stretch on and on and on
Expressing a desire for enduring connections.
Are we just searching for a little highway map
Posing the question of whether individuals seek a path or direction.
Are the lines between us
Considering if the space between individuals represents a journey to the past.
Just a path to a vacant past
Suggesting that the lines between individuals lead to an empty or nostalgic past.
And you still make me think of what we used to be
Reflecting on memories of what once was.
But maybe we're smaller
Repeating the idea that individuals may be smaller than perceived.
Are we just smaller
Raising the question of whether individuals are inherently smaller (repeated theme).
