Every Living Creature
Navigating Life's Poison: Every Living Creature by Spielbergs
Lyrics
You can run but you can't escape
You may try to escape, but it's futile
Ooh you better watch out
A warning to be cautious
You improve but you can't erase
You can make progress, but some things can't be undone
Ooh you better watch your mouth
A cautionary note about being mindful of speech
There is poison in this place
An acknowledgment of negativity or danger in the environment
Ooh you better watch out
A repeated warning to be vigilant
I can see it in your face that you
An observation of something troubling reflected in facial expressions
There's stuff you can't explain and
Reference to unexplainable things in life
There's stuff you can't ignore
Recognition of things that can't be overlooked
And I guess what she's saying
A speculative statement about a person's words or feelings
She won't come back no more
A realization that someone won't return
And I guess what she's saying
A repetition of the realization
That she can't take no more
An assertion that someone can't endure any more
You better watch out
A reiteration of the warning to be vigilant
Whoah you better watch out
A heightened emphasis on the need to be cautious
You're in love but you can't forgive
You're in love but struggling to forgive
Ooh you better watch out
A reminder to be cautious in this emotional state
You feel dead but you wanna live
Feeling emotionally numb but desiring life
Ooh you better watch your mouth
A cautionary note about speech in this state
There is poison in this place
Reiteration of the presence of danger or negativity
Ooh you better watch out
Repeated warning to be vigilant
I can see it in your face that you
Observation of something troubling in facial expressions
There's stuff you can't explain and
Reference to unexplainable things in life
There's stuff you can't ignore
Recognition of things that can't be overlooked
And I guess what she's saying
A speculative statement about a person's words or feelings
She won't come back no more
A realization that someone won't return
And I guess what she's saying
Repetition of the realization
That she can't take no more
An assertion that someone can't endure any more
You better watch out
Reiteration of the warning to be vigilant
Whoah you better watch out
Heightened emphasis on the need to be cautious
I see you when I wake up
An acknowledgment of awareness upon waking up
I see you in my sleep
Continued awareness even in dreams
I know we're growing older
An acceptance of aging but feeling youthful
But I feel like nineteen
A sense of youthfulness despite the aging process
If every living creature
A philosophical reflection on the purpose of every living being
Has a reason to exist
Uncertainty about perceiving the purpose of existence
I don't know if I can see it
Doubt about understanding the purpose
I can't see anything
A declaration of inability to see anything clearly
I can't see anything
Reiteration of the inability to see clearly
