Lyrics
They saw us coming from miles away
Anticipation of our arrival was evident from a long distance.
Jubilant train
A joyous and celebratory group or procession likened to a train.
Wearing feathers like an exotic bird
We presented ourselves in an attention-grabbing manner, adorned with feathers like a unique bird.
Double-headed, breathing smoke
Metaphorical description of a powerful entity with two heads, emitting a formidable presence.
Looking for a line to quote, waiting to jump the rope
Searching for a memorable phrase, ready to challenge the established order, to influence decisions, and witness hope in a new concept named "freedom."
To change the vote, to witness hope in the newest thing, called "freedom"
Encountered resistance; they rejected the idea and adhered to uniformity, trying to control aspirations.
But they said, "No way," and they wore the same coats, khaki-brown and faded
Uniformity persisted in appearance and action, attempting to confine dreams into easily manageable units like widgets in a factory.
Typed at the same machines and tried to box up all the dreams in neat little packages
Despite this, a continuous observation and surveillance were in place, akin to the concept of "Big Brother" from George Orwell's 1984.
Like widgets for the factory
Emphasizing the constant scrutiny and control exerted by authorities.
All the while
Observing the oppressive force and its impact.
Watching
Repetition of the theme of pervasive surveillance, echoing the Orwellian concept of a powerful figure watching over everyone.
Big Brother watching
-Big Brother watching
-"But we are crashing gates, and we are passing over the gate keepers"
Asserting defiance by breaking barriers and surpassing those who try to control access.
We are the new
Representing a new and revolutionary force.
And we are marching like a jubilant train through your towns
Marching confidently through various challenges and obstacles, symbolized by different groups and individuals.
Past your landscapes of lame ducks
-Past the lines of indifference
-Past the stormtroopers of compromise
-The deputies of damage control
-The officers of fear
-As they hand out their tickets to the deaf and the dumb and the younger ones
-To the very old, the influential, the disturbed, the zealots, the sheltered, the innocent
-As we take another ride down the blackened hall
Navigating through difficulties, perhaps a metaphorical journey through time or experiences.
You enter into space in the place to go
-Back to the beginning of it all
-Like the dawning of a new age
Symbolizing a new era, a fresh start, and the pursuit of freedom.
Like the turning of a new page
-Like the birth of a new son
-Like freedom on a roll
-Wearing nothing but a smile on our faces and our hands up in the air
Expressing joy and liberation, with hands raised in a carefree manner.
(It was all of us)
Emphasizing collective involvement and unity in the endeavor.
(It's so full of stars, so full of stars, so full of stars)
A moment filled with stars, possibly representing celestial beauty or a sense of vastness and possibility.
'Cause it's a future love song we cannot describe
Reflecting on an indescribable and enduring future love song, suggesting an eternal and unending connection or commitment.
It's just a future love song that
-We cannot describe
-You know, a future love song that
-We can never describe
-It's just a future love song that
-We can never abide
-We're stuck in a future
-Love song, and there's no
-Ending in sight
-Your future
Emphasizing the enduring nature of the mentioned "future love song."
