Unveiling Life's Illusions: Koba, the Wallflower's Poetic Message
Lyrics
The birds will swim on through the water
The natural order is disrupted as birds swim instead of fly through water.
The fish will fly across the sky
Implies a surreal scenario where fish are flying in the sky, emphasizing the unusual.
But trust me when I tell you there ain't nothing going on
Despite the surreal imagery, the singer asserts that nothing significant is happening.
The sun will say hello at midnight
Another surreal image, the sun saying hello at midnight, suggesting a time distortion.
The moon will come on out by noon
The moon appearing at noon is also surreal, contributing to the theme of the unusual.
But trust me when I tell you there ain't nothing going on
Reiteration of the idea that despite surreal occurrences, there is no real substance or meaning.
If you don't take the time to see through your eyes
Encouragement to perceive the world directly and authentically through one's own eyes.
Then how will you change this world?
Questioning how change can occur if individuals do not observe and understand their surroundings.
And they will take their time to feed you lies
Warning about external influences spreading misinformation or deception.
Until you don't believe yourself
Emphasizes the danger of losing self-belief due to the influence of falsehoods.
The birds will swim on through the water
Repetition of surreal imagery to highlight the theme of the unnatural.
The fish will fly across the sky
Continuation of surreal imagery to reinforce the sense of an inverted reality.
But trust me when I tell you there ain't nothing going on
Reiteration that despite the strange occurrences, there is a lack of genuine meaning.
The sun will say hello at midnight
Continued surrealism with the sun greeting at an unexpected time.
The moon will come on out by noon
Another surreal image, the moon appearing in daylight, emphasizing the unconventional.
But trust me when I tell you there ain't nothing going on
Reassertion that despite these oddities, there is a lack of real significance.
If you don't take the time to enjoy your life
Encouragement to take time to enjoy life, suggesting a contrast to the earlier lack of meaning.
Then what were you living for?
Raising the question of purpose if one doesn't find joy and fulfillment in life.
And they will take their time to keep you tied
Warning about external influences attempting to control or restrict an individual.
But you, you've got to break their mold
An urging to resist conformity and societal expectations, breaking free from imposed molds.
The birds will swim on through the water
Repetition of surreal imagery to maintain the dreamlike atmosphere.
The fish will fly across the sky
Continuation of unusual imagery, fish flying, contributing to the overall surreal theme.
But trust me when I tell you there ain't nothing going on
Restating that despite the fantastical scenes, there is a lack of meaningful substance.
The sun will say hello at midnight
Continued surrealism, the sun's greeting occurring at an unexpected time.
The moon will come on out by noon
Reiteration of the moon appearing during daylight, underscoring the unnatural setting.
But trust me when I tell you there ain't nothing going on
Final affirmation that despite the surreal elements, there is no genuine significance.
