Cognitive Suicide
Navigating Minds: Unveiling the Depths of Cognitive Suicide
Lyrics
You were a flash of light across a sky of total dark.
You appeared suddenly, a fleeting moment of brightness in a completely dark situation.
You saw their shocked and gaping jaws then it all returned to black.
Others witnessed your presence briefly, then everything went back to darkness.
There was a brief surge of panic, their eyes pressed tight.
People reacted with a momentary panic, shutting their eyes tightly.
You brought a swarm of confusion to their bleak but simple lives.
Your presence caused confusion in their otherwise dull and straightforward lives.
Cognitive suicide. Insular, pathetic minds
Refers to the act of shutting oneself off from learning or new ideas, characterized by narrow and unprogressive thinking.
Try to cut you off at the knees so they won't be left behind.
People try to hinder your progress to prevent themselves from falling behind or being overshadowed.
If everything is bland and unambiguous,
If everything is bland and clear-cut, it's easier for them to understand their place in the world.
Maybe they can understand how they fit into this place.
They seek simplicity and clarity to comprehend their role or purpose.
Every time they fail they seek a victim for their spite.
Whenever they fail, they seek someone to blame or target out of resentment.
Some dismal need to crush someone beneath their feet.
They have a sadistic urge to oppress or dominate others.
All their acrid words can't ease their wounded hearts.
Their hurtful words don't soothe their own emotional pain.
Despite their claims they have no maps, no keys to any gates.
Despite their claims, they lack guidance or solutions to navigate life.
Cognitive suicide. Insecure, regressive minds
Similar to line 6, referring to a refusal to evolve mentally, often stemming from insecurity.
Try to cut you off at the knees so they won't be left behind.
They try to hinder your progress to avoid feeling left behind or inadequate.
Petrified, frozen to imaginary times.
They are stuck in imaginary or outdated notions, unable to adapt to reality.
Pay no mind, I hope they pass you by.
Ignore them, hoping they won't bother or impede your path.
Live your life and don't apologize
Live your life authentically without feeling the need to apologize for being yourself.
To the cowards of this world, they're a waste of time.
They, the cowardly individuals, are not worth your time or attention.
Everything's in between.
Life's complexities lie within the middle ground, not in extremes.
Are they terrified of unobscured and brilliant colours?
Wondering if they fear vibrant and clear expressions of ideas or diversity.
Perhaps you cracked the door to their own forbidden worlds.
Speculation that your presence might have exposed them to unfamiliar but enticing possibilities.
Everything's in between.
Life and understanding exist within nuances, not absolutes.
Everything's in between.
Reiterating that life's essence lies in the middle, not in extremes.
Everything's in between.
Reemphasizing that life is about embracing the nuances and complexities that exist.
