Sentimental
Embracing Youthful Rebellion: Porcupine Tree's Sentimental Insights
Lyrics
I never wanna be old
I have a desire to avoid growing old.
And I don't want dependence
I don't want to rely on others; I value independence.
It's no fun to be told
It's not enjoyable to be informed or reminded.
That you can't blame your parents anymore
The excuse of blaming one's parents for problems is no longer acceptable.
I'm finding it hard
Facing challenges or difficulties.
To hang from a star
Struggling to achieve something significant.
I don't wanna be
I don't want to become something undesirable.
Never wanna be old
Reiterating the desire to avoid aging.
Sullen and bored the kids stay
The young people are discontent and uninterested.
And in this way, I wish away each day
A sense of longing to escape the mundane routine each day.
Stoned in the mall the kids play
Teenagers using substances in a commercial space (mall).
And in this way, I wish away each day
Expressing a desire to escape daily life through distractions.
I don't really know
Uncertainty about caring for societal norms.
If I care what is normal
Not sure if conforming to what is considered normal is important.
And I'm not really sure
Expressing doubt and lack of certainty.
If the pills I've been taking are helping
Uncertainty about the effectiveness of medication being taken.
I'm wasting my life
Feeling that life is being wasted.
Hurting inside
Experiencing internal pain or distress.
I don't really know
Expressing uncertainty about life.
And I'm not really sure
Reiterating a lack of certainty or clarity.
Sullen and bored the kids stay
Repetition of the discontent among the youth.
And in this way, I wish away each day
Continuation of the desire to escape daily life.
Stoned in the mall the kids play
Repetition of teenagers seeking escape through distractions.
And in this way, I wish away each day
Continuation of the desire to escape daily life.
Sullen and bored the kids stay
Repetition of the discontent among the youth.
And in this way, I wish away each day
Continuation of the desire to escape daily life.
Stoned in the mall the kids play
Repetition of teenagers seeking escape through distractions.
And in this way, I wish away each day
Continuation of the desire to escape daily life.
Sullen and bored the kids stay
Repetition of the discontent among the youth.
And in this way, I wish away each day
Continuation of the desire to escape daily life.
Stoned in the mall the kids play
Repetition of teenagers seeking escape through distractions.
And in this way, I wish away each day
Continuation of the desire to escape daily life.
