Reflections on Society: A Provocative Tale
Lyrics
My head is spinning and im out of control
Feeling disoriented and losing control of my thoughts.
Ive tried yelling but theres no one around
Attempted to seek help by yelling, but no one is present.
I think this time, this time i have finally snapped
Suggesting a breaking point where the speaker feels they've snapped mentally.
I hear them coming and i know i should run
Aware of approaching problems and the instinct to escape.
Discussions cant be had under the barrel of a gun
Expressing the difficulty of having meaningful discussions in threatening situations.
What sort of world are we leaving for our kids
Reflecting on the state of the world left for future generations.
And It's all
Introducing a recurring theme of negative experiences.
fun and games till some asshole takes the stage
Highlighting the dark side of entertainment when someone disruptive takes center stage.
Images are seared into the back of my brain
Disturbing images are deeply imprinted in the speaker's mind.
Failure to see beyond their own mistakes, good god
Criticizing the failure to learn from mistakes and take responsibility.
I dont wanna play anymore
Expressing a desire to disengage from participation.
Irate, exhausted, are the words that i'd use
Using "irate" and "exhausted" to convey strong negative emotions while absorbing current news.
To describe myself while im reading todays news
Describing the emotional state while consuming today's news.
Another twenty six are left dead
Reporting another tragic event with casualties.
"Save" your amendment, let your children die
Criticizing the prioritization of personal rights over saving lives.
"We wont comply" you yell as fathers and mothers cry
Mocking resistance when faced with the suffering of parents.
March to the madness of your psalm
Encouraging blind obedience to a destructive ideology or belief.
And It's all
Repeating the idea that certain events are initially perceived as fun and games.
fun and games till some asshole takes the stage
Reiterating the negative consequences when someone disruptive takes the stage.
Images are seared into the back of my brain
Emphasizing the lasting impact of disturbing images on the speaker's mind.
Failure to see beyond their own mistakes, good god
Reinforcing the criticism of failing to learn from past mistakes.
I dont wanna play anymore
Reiterating the desire to disengage from the disturbing events.
Irate, exhausted, are the words i'd use
Using "irate" and "exhausted" to describe the emotional toll of current news on the speaker.
To describe myself while i'm reading todays news
Reiterating the emotional state while consuming today's news.
Another twenty two are left dead
Reporting another tragic event with casualties, slightly fewer than before.
Bitch to the masses from behind your keyboard
Criticizing those who complain or express dissatisfaction without taking meaningful action.
"Our rights are gone" i hear you say, you hope they sing along
Mocking complaints about lost rights when people should be actively protesting.
March to the madness of your psalm
Encouraging blind obedience to a destructive ideology or belief, echoing earlier themes.
And It's all
Repeating the idea that certain events are initially perceived as fun and games.
fun and games till some asshole takes the stage
Reiterating the negative consequences when someone disruptive takes the stage.
Images are seared into the back of my brain
Emphasizing the lasting impact of disturbing images on the speaker's mind.
Failure to see beyond their own mistakes, good god
Reinforcing the criticism of failing to learn from past mistakes.
I dont wanna play anymore
Reiterating the desire to disengage from the disturbing events, using similar phrasing as before.
