Lyrics
I'm not crazy, am I
I question my sanity, seeking confirmation.
Am I
Repetition for emphasis, reinforcing the uncertainty.
Error
An acknowledgment of a mistake or flaw.
We like to think we have some form of control still
Reflecting on the illusion of control we believe we have.
Making our constant binary choices and voicing our equally shallow opinions more loudly or quietly
Describing our choices and opinions as binary and superficial.
Most people can't even decide what colour to wear or which burger to eat
Highlighting the trivial nature of decisions faced by many.
What the f does it matter man
Questioning the significance of such choices.
Autonomy is an illusion, pulled over our eyes and shoved down our throats
Asserting that the concept of autonomy is an illusion imposed on us.
Sometimes I still fantasise about being normal
Expressing a longing for a conventional, trouble-free existence.
What would it be like to live in a naive safe reality
Imagining the simplicity of living in an innocent, secure reality.
It's a dream, just be quiet
Dismissing the dream as unattainable, advocating silence.
Sometimes I still fantasise about being normal
Reiteration of the desire for a normal life.
What would it be like to live in a naive safe reality
Revisiting the fantasy of a naive and safe reality.
Errors force the system to adapt, to develop, to pass through into a new paradigm
Highlighting how errors drive the evolution of systems.
A new version emerges, inescapable progress
Emphasizing the inevitability of progress through adaptation.
We live in a collective paranoia
Describing a collective state of paranoia among people.
People dependant on each others errors to control and exploit
Suggesting dependence on others' mistakes for control and exploitation.
Now and then, we even communicate with one another
Noting occasional communication despite the prevailing paranoia.
Error
Repetition of "Error," possibly signaling a recurring theme or self-awareness.
Am I
Repetition of questioning sanity, reinforcing uncertainty.
I'm not crazy, am I
Reiteration of questioning sanity, seeking affirmation.
