Mortals
Mortals' Melancholy: Exploring Humanity's Regrets and Hopes
Lyrics
And when all the roses die
Reflecting on the end of beauty or positive aspects, possibly a metaphor for the decline of something cherished.
And the last of us have lived our lives
Contemplating the conclusion of human existence, the end of a generation or society.
They'll be spaceships in the sky
Envisioning a future where advanced technology, like spaceships, will exist after human extinction.
For a few of them
Some individuals (represented by "a few of them") will have the opportunity to colonize Mars.
To give Mars a try
Reference to the potential colonization of Mars as an alternative for a select few.
No more prom, there's no crows
Reflecting on missed opportunities, possibly related to environmental concerns (electric car).
Should have bought the electric car
A sense of regret or missed chances regarding environmental responsibility.
Oh, mortals, oh mortals
Pleading or questioning the mistakes of humanity.
Where did all go so wrong?
Expressing confusion or disappointment about the trajectory of human history.
Didn't think this far on
Humans didn't anticipate the consequences of their actions, possibly related to environmental issues.
Can barely think about today
Struggling to focus on the present due to overwhelming thoughts about the future.
Mortals, oh, mortals
Addressing the human condition, acknowledging mistakes without guilt.
Didn't do nothing wrong
Claiming innocence in causing harm, emphasizing individuality.
Just tried nothing alone
Choosing solitude over conformity, perhaps a critique of societal expectations.
Don't wanna laugh along today
Resisting forced happiness or participation in societal norms today.
And I'll see you in the park
Imagining a farewell in a park, possibly a metaphor for the end of relationships or connections.
Saying last goodbyes
Expressing goodbyes, acknowledging the transience of life.
To all your dogs
Reflecting on missed connections, pondering what could have been.
Maybe we'd have hit it off
Speculating on missed opportunities in relationships due to environmental challenges.
If old Mother Earth
Blaming environmental degradation for hindering potential connections.
Hadn't got so hard
Earth's challenges making connections or relationships difficult.
But I can't worry about descendants
Unable to focus on the future (descendants) while dealing with personal emotions.
Whilst I worry about my feelings
Prioritizing personal feelings over concerns for the future.
Oh, mortals, oh mortals
Reiteration of questioning humanity's missteps.
Where did all go so wrong?
Expressing confusion or disappointment about the trajectory of human history.
Didn't think this far on
Humans didn't anticipate the consequences of their actions, possibly related to environmental issues.
Can barely think about today
Struggling to focus on the present due to overwhelming thoughts about the future.
Mortals, oh, mortals
Addressing the human condition, acknowledging mistakes without guilt.
Didn't do nothing wrong
Claiming innocence in causing harm, emphasizing individuality.
Just tried nothing alone
Choosing solitude over conformity, perhaps a critique of societal expectations.
Don't wanna laugh along today
Resisting forced happiness or participation in societal norms today.
Don't wanna laugh along today
Repetition emphasizing the resistance to societal norms or expectations.
Where my little clothes
Alluding to mundane activities, possibly symbolizing the triviality of daily life.
Check up on my phone
Checking on personal belongings, emphasizing individualism.
We are not alone
A reminder that humans share the world and are not truly alone.
We are not alone
Reiteration of the idea that humans are not isolated beings.
Take my shopping home
Everyday tasks symbolizing the mundane nature of life.
Wash my kitchen floor
Mundane chores contrasted with the possibility of hope.
There might still be hope
Hinting at the potential for positive outcomes or a better future.
There might still be hope
Reaffirmation of hope, suggesting that despite challenges, there's still a chance for a positive outcome.
