Lyrics
I feel like something profound and meaningful
I sense the need for something deep and meaningful to be expressed from this platform.
Should be espoused from this platform
An expectation for a message that is wise and profound, transcending the ordinary.
Words wise beyond their years
Words that exhibit wisdom beyond their conventional age or experience.
A message of some purpose or consequence
An anticipated communication with a purpose or significance.
There is nothing
A realization that there is nothing substantial or meaningful.
I pretend to dig deep
An attempt to explore deeply, pretending to delve into profound subjects.
But the words are passionless, derivative
The words lack genuine emotion and originality; they are uninspired.
The sentiment is painfully
The sentiment expressed is painfully devoid of substance.
Hollow
A recognition that the emotional depth is hollow and lacking.
Slumped over in a chair once hoped forgotten
Physically slouched in a chair, once hopeful aspirations are now forgotten.
Facing enemies passed as quick fixes to greater, deeper set issues
Facing challenges that were initially perceived as quick solutions to more profound issues.
Suitable diction proves elusive
Finding it challenging to express thoughts using suitable language.
As my mind dances like a mongoose 'round a cobra
The mind is restless and evasive, much like a mongoose avoiding a cobra.
But I'll bury broken muses
Despite challenges, there is a commitment to burying broken artistic inspirations.
My own hidden Burgess Shale
A reference to a personal hidden repository of shattered creative ideas.
Pull up
An abrupt shift to a directive, possibly indicating a desire to change or improve.
Another black hood, warming my cold weathered hands
The image of wearing a black hood in cold weather, seeking comfort and warmth.
Curl up in lose fit flannel and self-preserve
Choosing to retreat and protect oneself, symbolized by curling up in loose-fitting flannel.
