Lyrics
He knows no shame, and takes no blame
He lacks shame and avoids taking responsibility for his actions.
This simpleton, sees everything
He is a simple-minded person who observes everything around him.
He's only satisfied,
His satisfaction comes from pointing out the mistakes of others.
To point out other's mistakes
He is unafraid to use his pride in interactions.
Never afraid, to use his pride
He follows old traditions and inherits faith from his family.
His tradition is old,
His faith and traditions are passed down through generations.
His faith a hand-me-down, the family
He openly displays his beliefs and values.
He wears them on his sleeve,
Morale and values are like Christmas presents left unattended.
Morale and values left under a christmas tree
He had a positive image in his grandparents' eyes.
He once had the gift,
He once possessed a valuable quality or skill.
This image in his grandparents eyes
A positive image existed in the eyes of his grandparents.
No guns, no drugs, no rape, no end
Rejecting negative aspects: no guns, no drugs, no rape, no end.
This vacant soul, is pale and blue,
His soul is empty and dispirited, symbolized by pale blue color.
In empty gaze, his crow's feet are
His eyes show defeat and exhaustion in a vacant gaze.
A vision of defeat sick
He is sick and tired of a meaningless existence.
And tired of the meaninglessness
His rationality is dulled, desensitized to the irrational.
The irrational he's desensitized,
He is numb to his needs and emotions.
His every need and emotion
He views life pessimistically, despite occasional euphoria.
A cup half empty,
He is searching for a change in his routine.
But full of euphoria he's,
He seeks a reason and faith for peace of mind.
Searching for the light switch in the dark,
Struggling to find positivity in the darkness of life.
To switch his routine
He wants to alter his routine to find meaning.
To find a reason,
Searching for a reason to have faith and peace of mind.
To find faith in piece of mind
Loss of beliefs makes it difficult to see through his pessimistic perspective.
When one to many beliefs die,
After the death of many beliefs, clarity becomes challenging.
It's tough to see through these black eyes
His vision is clouded by the darkness represented by black eyes.
Everyone forgives everyone forgets
People forgive and forget easily.
Everyone is true
Everyone is genuine, and there is no deception.
And no one here will lie to you
Honesty prevails; no one will lie to him.
He knows the truth,
He claims to know the truth.
He knows the truth,
Repetition emphasizes his confidence in knowing the truth.
Here nothing's certain
Nothing is certain in his world.
Disregard what you've learned,
Advice to discard preconceived notions to find peace of mind.
To find faith in piece of mind
Continued emphasis on finding faith for peace of mind.
All of their gods died with his peace,
All gods have died, leaving only his peace.
I should know him that heathen?s me
The speaker identifies with the heathen, possibly feeling alienated or rebellious.
