Lyrics
I know there's something to try
I acknowledge that there's something worth attempting
Someone has given me time
Someone has granted me an opportunity or moment
Life hits back
Life presents challenges and difficulties
Death is wealth
Death is a form of wealth or an inevitability
I won't talk, or respond, I'll just tell myself
I choose not to speak or react, opting to internalize
To burn it down
Expressing a desire to destroy or eliminate something
Is there anything in this town
Questioning the existence of anything noteworthy in the town
But a prison cell
Suggesting that the town contains only a prison cell
And a series of bank accounts?
Commenting on the prevalence of bank accounts, possibly implying a materialistic focus
And that's the fault of a wide angle lens
Blaming the shortcomings on a distorted perspective, possibly referencing a wide-angle lens
An expression made clear from your face is erased in a minor sense
Noting that facial expressions can be misinterpreted or erased in a minor way
Is that where the money's spent?
Raising a question about the allocation of money
It's the fly eating fruit off the tree
Metaphorically describing a situation with a fly eating fruit off a tree
Just a day in advance of the ants that appear when when it's in the weeds
Anticipating future problems, comparing them to ants in the weeds
Is that how a privilege reads?
Raising awareness about the way privilege is perceived
And I've been around, but it don't mean death to me
Having experience, but asserting that it doesn't equate to death
But it hurts to admit that I'm on my way to get back again
Acknowledging emotional pain in admitting a return to a previous state
Back again
Repeating the idea of going back again
And you the bear the weight
Addressing the burden of not experiencing the same emotions
Of not feeling the same
Describing a situation with a boss in a room full of chairs
It's the boss in a room full of chairs
Highlighting indecisiveness and the absence of a real workforce
Who can't make up his mind cause the real workforce isn't there
Raising a question about the fairness of the boss's wage
Is that why his wage is fair?
Suggesting a possible reason for the fairness of the boss's wage
