Lyrics
I mind when you say
The speaker is bothered when the listener expresses hatred for everyone.
That you hate everyone
Highlighting the falsehood in the listener's claim of hating everyone.
You know that's not true
Addressing the listener's lack of truthfulness in their statement.
I mind when you say
The speaker minds when the listener blames other people as the main issue.
The biggest problem is other people
Questioning the distance between the speaker and listener due to their differing perspectives.
Since when are you and I so far apart
Conversation
Referring to elements of dialogue or communication.
Suffering
Highlighting distress or pain.
Broken
Emphasizing a state of being fractured or damaged.
Broken mirror
A metaphor for shattered perceptions or distorted self-image.
Delusion
Illusion or misconception.
Abrasive, unforgiving
Describing a harsh, unyielding nature.
Haven't ever the time
Lack of time to create significance or purpose.
To make meaning
A sense of futility in assigning meaning.
It feels like such a waste of time
Feeling that investing time is wasteful.
You say you're trying
Claiming an effort to change despite obstacles.
The confusion of
Confusion arising from being out of sight.
Out of sight, out of mind
Forgetting or neglecting what's not visible.
I mind being singled out
Discomfort when singled out among humanity.
Amongst the entire human race
Expressing frustration at encountering deceitful or unpleasant people constantly.
Rat bastards at every turn
Continued frustration at encountering deceitful or unpleasant people at every turn.
There can't be
Rat bastards at every turn
-Like rats, like rats, rats, they're everywhere
Comparison of people to rats, suggesting their pervasive presence.
Always someone around
Constant presence of others.
Everywhere every time I fall in love
Encountering individuals repeatedly while experiencing love.
Every time I go out into the world
Regularly facing the world and its people.
Yet despise everyone
Despite encountering many, there's a dislike for all.
Run, run away
Encouragement to escape or avoid.
We're all running in the same wheel
Shared struggle or pursuit without progress.
Same boat, wheel house
Metaphorically likening shared experiences in life.
It's psychotic
Describing a disturbed or irrational state of mind.
I try to get through
Repeated attempts to connect or communicate.
To you so often
Expressing the inefficiency or frustration in attempting connection.
It feels like a waste of time
Sense of futility in attempting reconciliation due to mutual animosity.
Both sides, rat bastards
Mutual blame or derogatory judgment towards each other.
I try and I try
Continued efforts despite difficulties.
I mind you trying to drive
Discomfort at someone isolating themselves from others purposefully.
A wedge between yourself and the rest of the world
Describing a deliberate attempt to distance oneself from the world.
Before the fall of gravity defied
Before the inevitability of facing consequences.
Maybe someday
Hope for a future understanding of coexistence.
We'll figure out
Anticipation of finding a way to live harmoniously.
How to live in the world
Adapting to live alongside others.
With everybody else
Living collectively with everyone else as a possibility.
There can't be
Rat bastards at every turn
-You're telling me
-Rat bastards at every turn
-As far as the eye can see
-Rat bastards at every turn
