Lyrics

Hey people gather around me

Introduction, calling for attention

I have a story to tell

Expressing intention to share a story

About a woman I've met long ago

Referring to a woman from the past

In a shady hotel

Setting the scene in a questionable hotel

She was looking quite young

Describing the woman's youthful appearance

Hardly over twenty years

Emphasizing her apparent age

But as we started talking

Starting a conversation with the woman

I could not believe my ears

Expressing disbelief at what he hears

She told me that she'd been here since the very first sound

Woman claims to have been present since the beginning of sound

The biggest bang to ever be heard all around

Describing her witnessing the biggest bang

She witnessed evolution of dinosaurs and ducks

Listing her observations of the evolution of dinosaurs and ducks

And her final verdict has to be

Woman's final conclusion: Being immortal is unpleasant

Being immortal sucks

Reiteration of the negative aspect of immortality

With a tired smile on her lips she said

Describing the woman's demeanor with a tired smile

I've really seen it all

Woman claims to have experienced everything

What once seemed new and exciting

Noting the loss of excitement in once new things

Soon started being dull

Transitioning from novelty to boredom over time

Ages after ages

Highlighting the woman's exposure to ages and similar experiences

She has seen such similar things

Stating the monotonous nature of her observations

The only difference being

Noting only superficial differences in observed things

Something had a new pair of legs or fancy wings

Reflecting on the cyclical nature of existence

It surely goes downhill when humans come into play

Shift in tone, suggesting negative impact when humans enter the picture

And endless shitshow bringing nothing but disarray

Describing the chaos caused by humans

Repeating past mistakes like proper brainless butts

Accusing humans of repeating mistakes mindlessly

Leading her once again to conclude

Stating the woman's recurring conclusion about immortality

Being immortal sucks

Reiteration of the negative aspect of being immortal

So for the last several decades

Shifting to the woman's recent decades in a rundown place

She resided in this rundown place

Describing the woman's current residence

Once a high class meeting ground

Highlighting the decay of the once prestigious meeting place

Now an empty maze

Emphasizing the transformation into an empty maze

Weary of the world outside

Expressing the woman's weariness of the outside world

She spends her time in here

Detailing her choice to spend time in seclusion

Blind and deaf to what goes on

Highlighting her ignorance of external events

With no one to hold dear

Noting the lack of close relationships in her life

Countless times she tried escaping this curse

Describing the woman's futile attempts to escape immortality

A hopeless task making her morale worse and worse

Highlighting the worsening impact on her morale

No wound or fall could free her nor electric shocks

Stating the ineffectiveness of physical harm or shocks on her

So, she remains here to tell the world

Emphasizing her continued existence to share her perspective

Being immortal sucks

Reiteration of the negative sentiment about immortality
