Lyrics
Its sort of what it seems
It appears to be straightforward
only seventeen pieces of pie
There are only seventeen opportunities or shares available
How pleased they where that you cared
People were happy that you showed concern or interest
you try you try you try
Despite efforts, success is elusive
Its sort of what it seems
It seems to be consistent with initial impressions
so we replace our heads
We metaphorically replace our heads, possibly referring to changing perspectives
and draw our fate around a cup
We create our destiny around a cup, symbolizing a vessel of life or experiences
our fate to regulate ourselves
Our destiny is to self-regulate
and faintly meet our dreams
We faintly grasp our dreams
we run through the water
We move through challenges like water
we run through the water
Repetition emphasizes the act of moving through water
how will we see the world
How will we perceive the world?
are we gonna know the way
Uncertainty about finding the path
how will we see the world
Repetition underscores the uncertainty of perceiving the world
are we gonna know the way
Continued uncertainty about finding the way
with the sound of centuries
The sound represents the echoes of centuries
Its sort of what it seems
Reiteration of the initial impression
now we exchange our heads
We metaphorically exchange our heads again
and draw our fate around the cup
Redrawing destiny around the cup, repeating the cycle
so we can regulate ourselves
We regulate ourselves through the cyclical process
and faintly meet our dreams
We faintly grasp our dreams again
how will we see the world
Reiteration of the uncertainty of perceiving the world
are we gonna know the way
Continued uncertainty about finding the way
how will we see the world
Repetition emphasizing the search for meaning
are we gonna know the way
Still uncertain about finding the way
with the sound of centuries
The echoes of centuries persist
the sound of centuries
Emphasizing the enduring nature of historical echoes
how will we see the world
Repetition emphasizing the uncertainty of perceiving the world
are we gonna know the way
Still uncertain about finding the way
how will we see the world
Repetition underscoring the ongoing search for meaning
are we gonna know the way
Continued uncertainty about finding the way
with the sound of centuries
The echoes of centuries persist
we run through the water
Repetition of the imagery of running through water
we run through the water
Reiteration of the act of moving through challenges
how will we see the world
Repetition emphasizing the uncertainty of perceiving the world
are we gonna know the way
Uncertainty about finding the path
how will we see the world
Repetition underscores the uncertainty of perceiving the world
are we gonna know the way
Continued uncertainty about finding the way
with the sound of centuries
The enduring echoes of centuries
the sound of centuries
Reiteration of the persistence of historical echoes
how will we see the world
Repetition emphasizing the uncertainty of perceiving the world
are we gonna know the way
Still uncertain about finding the way
how will we see the world
Repetition emphasizing the ongoing search for meaning
are we gonna know the way
Continued uncertainty about finding the way
with the sound of centuries
The enduring echoes of centuries
we run through the water
Reiteration of running through water, suggesting the persistent challenges
we run through the water
Repetition of the act of moving through challenges
