We Are All Going to Die
Embracing Mortality: Primo the Alien's Poignant Reflection on Life
Lyrics
Life gives us roses with thorns on them
Life has challenges (roses with thorns), but having something (roses) is better than nothing.
I guess it’s better than nothing
Acknowledging that even though life has challenges, it's better than having nothing.
But it’s still confusing
Life's complexities and challenges are still confusing despite having something.
Cruel joke made
Reference to life's challenges as a cruel joke.
Bait and switch
Life can be deceptive and disappointing (bait and switch).
This game is no fun
Life feels like an unfun game that one didn't want to participate in.
Didn’t want to play
Despite not wanting to, the individual is part of the system/game.
But I’m the system
The individual acknowledges being part of the system.
Oh, I don’t like all the noise
Disliking the noise (distractions or challenges) in life.
Bouncing around in my head
The chaos and thoughts in the mind are overwhelming.
Sometimes I can’t believe this is happening
Expressing disbelief at the surreal nature of life events.
We’re pretending everything is
Suggesting a facade or pretending that everything is okay.
Fi
Fragmented expression, possibly emphasizing the need for concentration to believe a comforting lie.
Ne
-Maybe if we concentrate
-We can try real hard and believe the lie
-Believe the lie, now
Emphasizing the importance of believing the comforting lie.
I am pretending I am A-OK
Pretending to be emotionally okay despite challenges.
But when I’m in bed at night
Admitting to negative thoughts when alone at night.
Bad thoughts creep into my mind
-Fuck
Expressing frustration that others aren't as concerned or distressed about life's challenges.
Why isn’t everyone freaking out, freaking out
-Fuck
-Why isn’t everyone freaking out, freaking out
-Give me a taste then take it away
Experiencing fleeting moments of joy or satisfaction followed by disappointment.
This damn sentience betrays mass delusion
Sentience (consciousness) revealing mass delusion or deception.
Oh, we’re
Metaphorical description of human existence on Earth and in the universe.
Fl
-Oating on a rock
-That’s
-Fl
-Ying through outer space
-Sometimes I can’t believe our reality
Expressing disbelief at the reality of existence.
We’re pretending everything is
Reiteration of the theme of pretending and trying to believe in a comforting lie.

-Maybe if we concentrate
-We can try real hard and believe the lie
-Believe the lie, now
Emphasizing the importance of believing the comforting lie.
I am pretending I am A-OK
Continuing to pretend that everything is emotionally okay.
But when I’m in bed at night
Admitting to negative thoughts during vulnerable moments.
Bad thoughts creep into my mind
-Why isn’t everyone
Expressing frustration that others aren't as concerned or distressed about life's challenges.
Freaking out
-Get on my level
Challenging others to understand and engage in deep conversations about existence.
Let’s converse about the heavens and the devil
Reflecting on existential topics, mortality, and choices (red and blue pill).
And our own mortality
-Red and blue pill
Considering the possibility of disregarding existential concerns and enjoying life.
Or maybe we’ll say fuck it and go hit the party
Opting for a carefree attitude, as everyone will eventually face death.
Cuz we’re all gonna die one day
Acceptance of the inevitability of death and the importance of finding contentment.
We’ll get old and learn to chill if we’re lucky
-So let’s smoke and drink
Suggesting coping mechanisms like smoking, drinking, and feigning normalcy to preserve sanity.
And try to get some sleep
-And wake up faking it to keep our sanity
-We are all going to die.pdf
Possibly a reference to a document titled "We are all going to die," emphasizing mortality.
We’re pretending everything is
Repetition of the theme of pretending and struggling with negative thoughts.
