Naturally
Embracing the Absurd: Love Wagon's Reflection on Humanity's Impact
Lyrics
When I go grey, I'll let it happen naturally
Expressing a willingness to let the aging process occur naturally.
You say it's not a problem for today, when actually
Highlighting a discrepancy between what is said and the actual situation, suggesting potential problems.
I see things starting to change so rapidly
Observing rapid changes occurring, possibly in the environment or circumstances.
And if it all went up in flames would you turn your back to me?
Pondering whether support would be withdrawn in the face of a crisis or disaster.
I would dare to wager
Expressing a willingness to take a risk or make a bet.
That there is no saviour
Suggesting a lack of belief in a savior or a solution to problems.
For all of our behaviour
Reflecting on how human behavior has negatively impacted the natural world.
Has killed our mother nature
Asserting that human actions have harmed the environment, often symbolized as "mother nature."
Ain't nobody here, hears a single word
Emphasizing a sense of isolation, suggesting a lack of attentive listeners.
Now that our destruction is mutually assured
Stating that the destruction is now inevitable and shared by all.
So we ought to abandon hope and embrace the absurd
Suggesting a need to relinquish hope and accept the irrational or absurd.
Or be blindly led straight to a massacre
Warning against blindly following destructive paths that lead to catastrophic outcomes.
I would dare to wager
Reiterating the skepticism about the existence of a savior or a solution.
That there is no saviour
Re-emphasizing the lack of faith in external salvation.
For all of our behaviour
Reiterating the idea that human actions have contributed to environmental degradation.
Has killed our mother nature
Affirming the belief that human activities have harmed the natural world.
From the dirt we came
Stating the origin of humanity and connecting it to the earth.
And shall return again
Highlighting the cyclical nature of life—birth, life, and death.
When all your living's been in vain
Suggesting a sense of futility or emptiness in one's life.
They'll bury the remains
Anticipating the end of life and the burial of remains.
