Always
Embracing Tomorrow: A Song of Modern Distractions
Lyrics
I guess this world
I feel that there are many things to explore in the world.
is offering a lot to see
Despite the vast opportunities, my exploration is limited to what I see through a cable (possibly referring to the internet).
But the only travelling I do
My only form of travel is virtual or digital.
is through a cable, lately
Recently, I've been engaging in conversations through technology.
I'm having conversations
I'm communicating while consuming microwave meals, suggesting a busy or solitary lifestyle.
with microwave meals
It's time for me to start living a genuine life.
It's time to start my life for real
Expressing a desire to break free from the current routine.
Always, always, always tomorrow
Repetition of the theme of procrastination, delaying actions to an unspecified "tomorrow."
I will do it then
-Always, always, always tomorrow
-I will do it then
-My shoulder should hurt
Reflecting on avoiding physical discomfort or challenges.
from jumping off a moving train
Avoiding risks and maintaining a pristine appearance.
That special shirt should at least
-have one curious stain
-But I'm making excuses to stay at
Making excuses to stay home and engage in solitary activities.
home tinkering all alone
-My cell phone keeps
Indulging in technology and comfort, possibly avoiding real-world responsibilities.
my thumb in shape
-I'm eating chocolate chip cookies
-all day
-Always, always, always tomorrow
Reiteration of the procrastination theme.
I will do it then
-Always, always, always tomorrow
-I will do it then
-Travel the seven seas
List of activities and self-improvement goals that are consistently postponed to "tomorrow."
Say thank you please
-Go to the gym
-Get fit and slim
-Read the news
-Learn how to choose
-Fix that bike
-Do things I like
-Shave my legs
-Not just the shins
-Sort things by colour
-Get wiser and taller
-Say the right things
-at the right time
-I'll be in time and on time
-Time and time again
-But wait a minute
Finding beauty and satisfaction in virtual or digital experiences, possibly indicating a reluctance to engage in the real world.
I found beauty in a click
-The ding-dong of the pop-up
-Was in harmony with the song I hummed
-Im satisfied
-I wrote a song about it
-I'm satisfied, today
Expressing contentment or satisfaction with the current state, despite the procrastination and virtual engagement.
