Idiot
Unveiling Minds: Understanding Perception and Conflict
Lyrics
You don't see things the same
You perceive things differently
In that thing you call a brain
Your cognitive processes are being referred to as a brain
Deconstruct and calculate
To break down and analyze
The things you love and who you hate
Evaluate the things you love and those you dislike
You don't see things the same
Reiteration of differing perspectives
In that thing you call a brain
Reiteration of referencing cognitive processes as a brain
Run a mile to compensate
Take drastic measures to make up for its clear structure
For its crystalline shape
Compensate for the clarity of thought
I'd like to call you stupid
Expressing a desire to label as unintelligent
But that's not true
Clarifying that it's not accurate
If you were an idiot
Implies the person is not necessarily an idiot
I wouldn't be so scared of you
The speaker is fearful despite the lack of idiocy
The birds tell me a story
The birds convey a narrative
As I'm looking from their view
Observing from a bird's perspective
A story of mass destruction
A tale of widespread devastation
And we haven't got a clue
Humanity is oblivious to the impending disaster
The birds tell me a story
Continuation of avian storytelling
I hoped it wasn't true
The speaker wishes it were untrue
The story turned to a rerun
The narrative becomes repetitive
An introduction of excuse
An introduction of justifications
I see it, repeated
Observing a recurring pattern
One time is far too many
Even once is too frequent
I see it, you secretly
Recognition of a hidden desire
need it to be ready
The readiness of the hidden desire
I see it, repeated
Reiteration of an observed recurrence
One time is far too many
Emphasizing the undesirability of repetition
I see it, defeated
Acknowledgment of being overpowered
I'd hurt you if she'd let me
Expressing a willingness to cause harm if permitted
I'd like to call you evil
Desire to label as malevolent
If that was all to say
If that was the only characterization
Would we be here still
Raising a hypothetical question about the current situation
If you were just spun out that way?
If the person's nature was simply a result of circumstances
