Father Time
Unraveling Life's Tapestry: No Advisory's Reflections on Time's Unforgiving Stare
Lyrics
Am I too young to feel this old?
Questioning whether being young should feel this emotionally draining and exhausting.
For feeling fucking restless, not doing what I'm told?
Expressing frustration for not conforming to societal expectations and rules.
What's the point if you don't leave something behind?
Reflecting on the importance of leaving a lasting impact or legacy.
Seems there's no escaping from the sober stare of time
Feeling trapped by the constant, unrelenting gaze of time without escape.
Nothing seems to motivate my mind
Expressing a lack of motivation and inspiration in life.
Thought loops lead down corridors I'd never thought to mine
Being caught in repetitive thought patterns in unexplored mental territories.
Hold my hand and pretend it's all okay
Seeking comfort and reassurance in the face of difficulties.
Like life for us ain't mostly grossly mapped out yesterday
Acknowledging that life is often predetermined and planned out in advance.
I wonder why we all pretend its fine
Questioning the facade of pretending everything is okay.
I wonder what's the point of all the tears
Questioning the purpose of shedding tears and experiencing emotional pain.
I wonder what's behind the fear
Curiosity about the roots and causes of fear.
I wake each day and rage against the Years
Expressing daily frustration and resistance against the passage of time.
The Years come to collect debts never agreed
Highlighting that time demands payment for unspecified debts.
At least not any methods that we can see
Uncertainty about the methods used by time to collect these debts.
Lulling you to stasis with patient urgency
Describing time as lulling individuals into stagnation with a patient sense of urgency.
Careful son or you'll wake up one day at twenty three
Warning about the potential consequences of not being mindful of time, waking up to reality at a later age.
Deadlines measure ages ignored for the construction of self limiting cages
Noting that deadlines are markers of ignored ages, representing self-imposed limitations.
Headlines within pages, distractions in the search to finally see the stage
References to distractions in the quest for self-discovery and understanding life's stages.
I wonder why we all pretend its fine
Reiteration of questioning the facade of pretending everything is fine.
I wonder what's the point of all the tears
Repeating the questioning of the purpose of tears and emotional struggles.
I wonder what's behind the fear
Reiterating curiosity about the origins of fear.
I wake each day and rage against the Years
Expressing the daily battle against the relentless passage of time.
I wonder why we all pretend its fine
Reiteration of questioning the facade of pretending everything is fine.
I wonder what's the point of all the tears
Repeating the questioning of the purpose of tears and emotional struggles.
I wonder what's behind the fear
Reiterating curiosity about the origins of fear.
I wake each day and rage against the Years
Expressing the ongoing daily struggle against the relentless passage of time.
