Run From the Pack
Escaping Conformity: Challenging Illusions
Lyrics
See the world on the fritz
Observing a world in chaos
No light through the abyss
No hope or enlightenment in the darkness
Born to die past my time
A sense of being fated to die beyond one's expected time
Just hope the next one fits
Anxiety about fitting into the next world or life
Stuck between the woke
Caught between socially conscious individuals and those indifferent to societal issues
And those who see right past it
People who overlook or ignore societal problems
Clones with radical cries
Individuals conforming to extreme ideologies or using false narratives for popular approval
Or lies to please the masses
Deception to cater to the majority
Homes up in flame
Homes in turmoil, urging action to identify responsibility
Let's fight for who's to blame
Advocating for accountability in the face of crisis
Run from the pack
Encouragement to distance oneself from conformity
You see fine from the back
A perspective of clarity when detached from the crowd
No hope for the real
Lack of optimism for genuine experiences or connections
Swallow the pill
Acceptance or adherence to falsehoods to maintain societal illusions
That keeps the lies intact
Embracing a mindset that perpetuates deceit
Life keeps movin on
Life's continual progression
Sing a happy song
Encouragement to maintain a positive facade despite challenges
Hope is dead and gone
The loss of hope
Run from the pack
Reiteration of the need to break away from conformity
I'll be here in the back
The singer's commitment to staying in the background
Plastic dolls heed the call
Critique of people mindlessly following trends
For what the trend's selling
Emphasizing the commercial nature of trends
Fill your role, sell your soul
Selling out one's principles for societal approval
All you do is say when
Repetition of compliance without questioning
All destined for fame
All individuals destined for fame, irrespective of authenticity
Delusions the same
Shared delusions among those seeking fame
Filters cover the flaws
Attempts to conceal imperfections with filters but unable to hide shame
But they can't hide the shame
Acknowledging the futility of masking true identity
Give me infamy or death
Preference for infamy over conformity or death
I think I'll take the latter
Choosing a path of non-conformity despite potential negative outcomes
Run from the pack
Reiteration of the need to distance oneself from the crowd
You see fine from the back
Reaffirmation of clarity when detached from societal pressures
No hope for the real
No optimism for genuine experiences or connections
Swallow the pill
Acceptance or adherence to falsehoods to maintain societal illusions
That keeps the lies intact
Embracing a mindset that perpetuates deceit
Life keeps movin on
Life's continual progression
Sing a happy song
Encouragement to maintain a positive facade despite challenges
Hope is dead and gone
The loss of hope
Run from the pack
Reiteration of the need to break away from conformity
I'll be here in the back
The singer's commitment to staying in the background
