Round Here
Echoes of Indifference: Unveiling Life's Silent Struggles
Lyrics
Some people seem to glide through life with open ease
Some individuals effortlessly navigate life, seemingly carefree.
While others are often brought right down to their knees
Others frequently face significant challenges that bring them to their lowest points.
Open mouthed we all watched with baited breath
Observers watched with anticipation and anxiety.
Snatched just in time from the jaws of death
An imminent danger or difficulty was narrowly avoided.
Round here no one seems to give a damn
In this community, people appear indifferent and uncaring.
When was the last time that you asked how I am
A lack of concern is evident; when was the last time someone inquired about the speaker's well-being?
No respect no thought for it all
There is a notable absence of respect or consideration for others.
Tell me this how much do we fall
The speaker questions the extent to which individuals decline morally or emotionally.
While everyone goes about their daily ways
While most people follow routine, a few confront challenges and uncertainties.
A few will struggle through the smoke and all it's haze
Struggling through difficulties, represented by "smoke" and its haze.
No doubt there has to be a better place
There is a belief that there must be a better place or state of being.
Open ended and devoid of human space
A space characterized by openness and a lack of human connection.
Round here no one seems to give a damn
A repetition of the theme: indifference prevails in the community.
When was the last time that you asked how I am
The lack of concern for the speaker's well-being is reiterated.
No respect no thought for it all
Continued absence of respect or consideration for others.
Tell me this how much do we fall
The speaker questions the extent of moral or emotional decline in society.
When was the last time and how did it feel
A reflection on the infrequency of genuine inquiries about one's well-being and the emotional impact.
We're you really there and was it real
Questions about the authenticity and reality of past experiences and interactions.
No doubt there should be a better way
A conviction that there must be a better, more compassionate way of living.
It's your shout I suspect you might another day
Suggests that the responsibility for change lies with the listener, hinted at by "your shout" for improvement.
Round here don't give a damn
A repetition emphasizing the prevalent indifference in the community.
Last time no respect for it all tell me this
Reiterates the lack of concern for the speaker's well-being and the absence of respect.
Round here don't give a damn
Continued emphasis on the community's indifference and lack of respect.
Last time no respect for it all tell me this
A repeated call for recognition of the societal issues and a plea for change.
