Furthermore
Beyond the Noise: Unraveling the Enigma in The Black Gasolines' 'Furthermore'
Lyrics
They look at me
People observe me
Another sweat over my face
I'm sweating, showing exertion
I don't know how
I lack understanding of
That's the question for today
That's the current query
For some high school runaways
Referring to individuals who left high school early
I don't know how
I don't understand
If we came here to stay
Uncertain if we intended to remain
I don't know what to do
Unsure of actions to take
My head
I'm mentally confused
Is spinning around
Feeling dizzy or disoriented
One
Numerical countdown
Two
-Three
-Four
-It's a school shoot, it's a wasteland
Refers to a school shooting, a devastated place
But it's nothing, furthermore
But it's inconsequential, additionally
I'm a schoolboy in a wasteland
Describing oneself as a student in a ruined area
But it's nothing, furthermore
Yet it's unimportant, moreover
It's a school prom, with a fine girl
Depicts a school dance with an attractive girl
It's the guy no one ever liked
Refers to a disliked individual
It's a new mood, it's a lifestyle
New emotional state or way of living
It's nothing, furthermore
Nevertheless, it's insignificant, also
No way, no other way
Expressing no alternative
No way, no runaway
There's no escape or fleeing
Well look at him
Referring to another person
Another man was killed today
Someone else lost their life today
And that's the price he had to pay
That was the cost they had to bear
We don't know how
We lack understanding
If he was here to stay
Uncertain if the person had plans to remain
We don't know what to do
Unsure of the appropriate course of action
My head
Mentally confused
Is spinning around
Feeling dizzy or disoriented
Welcome to the future.
Introduction to the future, a statement
Watch me going
Repeated phrase, 'watch me going'
Watch me going
-Watch me going
-Watch me going
-I'm too proud for the crowd
Feeling too dignified for the crowd
And I feel it down
Emotional descent or sadness
And I feel it down
-And I feel it down
-It's a school shoot, it's a wasteland
Describes a school shooting, a devastated place
But it's nothing, furthermore
However, it's unimportant, additionally
It's a school shoot, it's an old one
Another reference to a school shooting
But it's nothing, furthermore
Despite that, it's still unimportant, additionally
It's still nothing, furthermore
