Lyrics
We were happy and we didn’t know
We were content in the past, unaware of certain things.
Not worrying as much as we do now
We didn't have as many concerns as we do now.
Actually, maybe we did and I just don't remember
The speaker reflects on the possibility that they might have been aware but have forgotten.
Cause these are the parts that pictures don't capture
Some aspects of our experiences cannot be captured in pictures.
Do you think that in the future we’ll look back with regret or be sad that it's passed?
Contemplating whether we'll regret or feel sadness looking back on the past.
All those days in front of pointless screens
Days spent in front of screens without clear purpose.
And moving mouths screaming silent things
People talking without meaningful communication.
I mean, memory fails doesn't it?
Questioning the reliability of memory.
Or do we?
Pondering whether memory truly fails or if we choose to forget.
Ah ah ah ah ah
Repetition of non-verbal expressions (Ah ah ah ah ah).
We are fated to repeat, we are fated to repeat
Highlighting the idea that we are destined to repeat certain patterns.
But hey, stop that
An admonition to halt the cycle of repetition.
Allow me to glorify what’s in the past
Expressing a desire to romanticize the past.
And ignore the damage, do it all again
Acknowledging the tendency to overlook the negative consequences and repeat actions.
The same, it gets worse
Emphasizing that the repetition remains unchanged and may worsen.
Do you really think that in the past we actually laughed or was I simply mad?
Doubting the authenticity of past laughter, questioning one's sanity.
All those days in front of pointless screens
Reiteration of days spent aimlessly in front of screens.
And moving mouths screaming silent things
Repeating the image of people speaking without meaningful communication.
I mean, memory fails doesn't it?
Revisiting the theme of questioning the reliability of memory.
Or do we?
Pondering again whether memory truly fails or if it's a deliberate act.
Ah ah ah ah ah
Repetition of non-verbal expressions (Ah ah ah ah ah).
We are fated to repeat, we are fated to repeat
Reiterating the belief that certain patterns are destined to be repeated.
