Sisyphus' Melody: Navigating Life's Uphill Battle with Mother Nimbus
Lyrics
All for not
All efforts are futile or in vain.
Roll it up the hill gonna give it all I got
Committing fully to a challenging task, putting in maximum effort.
Double time
Working at a fast pace or with increased effort.
This life is mine
Expressing ownership and control over one's life.
Out of the womb
Symbolizing the beginning of life.
headed straight for the tomb
Life's journey leading inevitably towards death.
Don't know where I'm going
Feeling lost or uncertain about the future.
I'm getting there real soon
Anticipating a quick arrival or accomplishment of a goal.
Born at the right time
Being born at an opportune moment.
To work until I die
Acknowledging a lifetime of work until death.
In a backwater town
Describing a small, stagnant town.
Down by the seaside
Geographical reference to a location by the sea.
Out of the womb
Repetition of the theme of life's journey towards death.
headed straight for the tomb
Continuation of the inevitability of life's end.
Don't know where I'm going
Reiteration of feeling lost or uncertain about the future.
I'm getting there real soon
Reaffirming the anticipation of a quick arrival or accomplishment.
What's the point of pushing a boulder up a hill
Raising a philosophical question about the purpose of difficult endeavors.
If it's just gonna fall back down again?
Doubting the value of persisting in futile efforts.
I don't know how you can live like that
Expressing confusion or disbelief about a certain way of life.
I guess I just wanna know
Expressing a desire for understanding or clarity.
is Sisyphus happy?
Posing a philosophical question inspired by the myth of Sisyphus, questioning the possibility of finding happiness in repetitive and seemingly meaningless tasks.
