The Carrier
Echoes of Contagion: Large Plants Unleash the Carrier's Rebellion
Lyrics
I am only a carrier
I acknowledge that I am merely a carrier.
Here to bring your disease
I exist to transmit or convey your troubles/difficulties.
Stand aside for the carrier
Make way for the carrier, implying a sense of inevitability.
For I do as I please...
I act independently and do as I wish.
You can take apart the machinery
You have the power to disassemble the mechanisms of life.
Leave it in the street
Leave the broken elements in public view.
And all the shame that you might feel for me
Feel any shame you have for me and bring it to me.
Come here and lay it at my feet
Come close and place your shame at my feet.
And I will draw a circle
Create a boundary, inviting others to be within it.
Invite you to stand inside
Extend an invitation to stand inside the created circle.
Offer precious artefacts
Present valuable items for others to take and conceal.
For you to take away and hide
These items are meant for others to possess secretly.
I am only a carrier
Reiteration of being a carrier, transmitting something negative.
Here to bring your disease
The purpose remains to bring a form of affliction or trouble.
Stand aside for the carrier
Repeat the notion of making way for the carrier's actions.
For I do as I please...
Emphasize the autonomy and freedom to act as one pleases.
You can roar down the avenue
You have the ability to make a grand entrance.
Break into my room
Break into my personal space or privacy.
A thousand pieces of chandelier
Destroy valuable and delicate items associated with luxury.
To scatter on my tomb
The fragments are scattered on the carrier's future tomb.
And I will draw a circle
Repeat the process of creating a boundary or circle.
Invite you to stand inside
Extend an invitation to stand within this circle once more.
Offer precious artefacts
Offer valuable items again for others to take and hide.
For you to take away and hide
Emphasize the secretive nature of possessing these artifacts.
I am only a carrier
Reiterate the role as a carrier, emphasizing the negative impact.
Here to bring the disease
Express the purpose of bringing a disease or affliction.
Stand aside for the carrier
Repeat the call to make way for the carrier's actions.
For I do as I please...
Reaffirm the autonomy and freedom to act as one pleases.
And I'll make everybody see
Commit to making everyone aware of something.
I am on your side
Declare alignment with the listener, expressing support.
I am on your side
Reiterate the support, emphasizing being on the listener's side.
I am on your side
Repeat the declaration of being on the listener's side.
But I'm just so tired
Acknowledge personal exhaustion or fatigue.
