Pleasure in a Fast Void
Navigating Life's Fast Void: Mister Data's Reflective Anthem
Lyrics
You wander in place for a long time
You find yourself stagnant for a prolonged period.
You feel so restless but you don't ask why we bother
Feeling restless, questioning the purpose of our efforts.
To stay afloat and paddle to the shore
We strive to survive and reach safety but face setbacks.
Just to get pushed back when we ask for more
Seeking more, but facing resistance and disappointment.
Pleasure in spades in a fast void
Finding pleasure abundantly in a rapidly changing, empty space.
You feel so helpless and unemployed
A sense of helplessness and unemployment in this void.
Maybe the stakes are too high
The risks may be too high, leading to a repetitive cycle.
You're back full circle and you don't know why
Returning to the starting point without understanding why.
Water in space as a lifeline
Water symbolizes a lifeline in space, but it's meaningless if we constantly seek approval.
But it means nothing if we pander all the time
Emphasizing the insignificance of pandering all the time.
Sentiments wane and stumble and die
Feelings diminish and falter, leading to their demise.
The execution of the west coast line
Reference to the failure or flaws in the west coast's execution.
You take a picture so that you don't mind
Taking a picture to detach from the situation.
We laugh in the face of a good time
Mocking the idea of enjoying a good time.
It's ostentatious and paradigm
Showy and conforming to a set pattern.
Come for the X and stay for the Y
Attraction to certain aspects (X), but remaining for others (Y).
How much longer til Anaheim
Awaiting a specific event, possibly referencing Anaheim.
Pleasure in spades in a fast void
Experiencing pleasure in abundance within the fast void.
You feel so helpless and paranoid
Feeling powerless and paranoid in the same context.
Maybe the stakes are too high
Questioning if the risks are excessively high.
You feel so restless and you don't know why
Restlessness without understanding the cause.
A smile on your face is a life line
A smile serves as a lifeline, but it's ineffective without kindness.
But it means nothing if we can't act kind
Highlighting the importance of genuine and kind actions.
Holding space and of sound mind
Maintaining composure and sanity while holding space.
Can't trust the future so we turn back time
Lacking trust in the future, prompting a desire to reverse time.
Sleep on it maybe this time you won't cry
Suggesting reflection to prevent crying in the future.
Water in space as a life line
Water as a lifeline in space, meaningless if constantly seeking approval.
But it means nothing if we pander all the time
Reiteration of the consequences of constant pandering.
Sentiments wane and stumble and die
Feelings decline and falter, leading to their demise.
The execution of the west coast line
Reference to the failure or flaws in the west coast's execution.
You take a picture so that you don't mind
Taking a picture to detach from the situation.
A smile on your face is a life line
A smile serves as a lifeline, but it's ineffective without kindness.
But it means nothing we can't act kind
Emphasizing the importance of genuine and kind actions.
Empathy fades and crumbles and dies
Empathy diminishes and crumbles, leading to its demise.
Can't trust the future so we turn back time
Lacking trust in the future, prompting a desire to reverse time.
Sleep on it maybe this time you won't cry
Suggesting reflection to prevent crying in the future.
