The Room Outside
Exploring Cosmic Desolation: Mini Mansions' 'The Room Outside'
Lyrics
Through all the circuitry we'll find time
Despite the complex systems, we'll manage to find time.
Symmetrical moments in mind
Experiencing moments of balance or similarity in thoughts.
Those eyes begin to think
The eyes convey thoughts or contemplation.
Styrofoam magic marker moons or tombs
Imagery depicting moons or graves made of Styrofoam and the act of trying to fix superficial wounds.
Superglue all your pretty wounds
Using superglue to mend or cover up attractive wounds.
Though I begin to drink
Despite this, engaging in drinking alcohol.
Milk from a dead end star, astro-physically out of shape
Metaphorically consuming something futile or useless, possibly representing unfulfilling experiences from distant or dead sources.
Waking up the metal mercenary, suffocating in the room outside
Feeling trapped or suffocated in an unfamiliar or uncomfortable environment.
Paper mache manawar-lords of course
Referencing fragile, superficially strong figures, potentially symbolizing false idols or leaders.
Plastic champagne and sliding doors
Symbolism of luxury, artificial celebrations, and superficial opportunities for escape.
Those eyes begin to think
Reiteration of thoughts or contemplation portrayed through the eyes.
Planetal Targets in my mind, sometimes
Mentions of celestial targets in thoughts, sometimes losing clarity about one's own identity or humanity.
Losing perspective on my kind
Struggling to maintain perspective regarding one's own species or humanity.
Though I begin to drink
Continuation of engaging in drinking despite these struggles.
Milk from a dead end star, astro-physically out of shape
Metaphorical consumption of something futile or useless, again referencing unfulfilling experiences from distant or dead sources.
Have you met the jewel architect, he's burning slowly in the room outside
Introduction to the 'jewel architect,' possibly a metaphor for someone or something valuable deteriorating outside of one's immediate reality.
