Life Is a Living Art
Embracing Chaos: Life as a Living Art
Lyrics
I believe the words they say
Belief in spoken words exists.
But don't rely on what they're saying
Caution against relying solely on spoken information.
It's a total disarray when I try to track the meaning
Difficulty understanding the intended significance; confusion.
On a train to oblivion we're already in
Metaphorically on a path of disregard for consequences.
Isn't that great?
Rhetorical question emphasizing sarcasm or irony.
In a play that we're all portraying
We all participate in a collective act or role.
'Cause we better stay our selfish
Suggesting a need to maintain self-interest.
The night has shown it's light
The night reveals insights or truths.
The darkness molded in to a coffee cup
Symbolic transformation of darkness into something familiar.
I drink and then I wake up
Metaphor of consuming experiences leading to realization.
Life is a living art and everyone is a sculpture
Life is depicted as an ongoing creation, and individuals are artworks.
I'm disengaged and yet reclaimed
Feeling disconnected yet reacquiring a sense of belonging.
Is that enough or insufficient?
Questioning adequacy or completeness of reclamation.
Infelicitous attempts to regain
Unsuccessful efforts to retrieve what's lacking.
What I am missing
Desire to regain or recapture something missing.
Let's pretend that we're all insane
Suggesting a collective choice to ignore rationality.
And there is no train
Imagining a scenario where certain norms don't apply.
Isn't that great?
Rhetorical question emphasizing sarcasm or irony (repeated).
Pandemonium is planned
Implying chaos is organized or structured.
And strait is contorted
Suggesting distortion of what's considered normal or expected.
The night has shown it's light
Repeated insight revealed during the night.
The darkness molded in to a coffee cup
Repeated transformation of darkness into familiarity.
I drink and then I wake up
Repetitive consumption of experiences leading to realization.
Life is a living art and everyone is a sculpture
Reiteration of life as an ongoing creation and individuals as artworks.
