Modernist Nightmare
Navigating a Modernist Nightmare: Exploring Isolation and Redemption in The Lost Heads Club's Anthem
Lyrics
From the darkest of the darkest
Beginning in the darkest and most challenging circumstances
To the depths of Mexico
Extending to the depths of Mexico, possibly symbolizing a journey or escape
(It's me)
Identity assertion ("It's me")
(I didn't think you'd miss my call tonight)
Expressing surprise at missing a call, hinting at a strained relationship
(Or maybe you didn't pick up cause you saw it was me)
Suggesting a potential avoidance of the call due to recognition of the caller
How's it feel now
Questioning the emotions of being alone
How's it feel now
-How's it feel now that you're alone
-I missed a call from one of my bro's
Reflecting on existential questions about art, soul, and self-worth
He told me not to float just go down that road
-So down the road I went so sceptic
-Of myself was the art still worth it
-Was the art still worth my soul
-These the questions I will not know
-These the questions I will not know
Expressing uncertainty about finding one's place and facing challenges
Find my place in a crowd full of bulls
-This the question that I will not know
-Bloodied up, upside down hang a rope
Describing a desire to escape or avoid the struggles of love
Hang a rope so high I'll climb up
-Find a way so I won't have to fight love
-Find a rope that I will I will climb up
-Find a way I'll never have to fight love
-I won't ever have to fight love
-Fight love
Not wanting to experience the pain of love
You're the only one who cry's love
-Cry's love
-Wanna feel like
Expressing a desire to make a positive impact on others' lives
I could I could
-Make a difference in someone's life uh
-Trapped inside a modernist nightmare
Feeling trapped in a modernist nightmare and experiencing internal conflict
Find myself hitting down on a snare
-Find myself in a modern nightmare
-Looking out on a river make my death
Contemplating death and its inevitability, indifferent to hysteria
Eventful
-Eventual
-Death comes for us all but I don't really care for
-Hysteria in a modern nightmare
Referencing generational conflicts and control of information by older generations
Boomers had us feeling out of breath
-They control what we once said
-So we stop; push back again
Advocating resistance, seeking justice, and not conforming to imposed ideas
Seeking justice till the end
-save yourself what she once said
Urging self-preservation and defiance against external influences
(Save)
-(Save)
-(Save)
-Save yourself or you'll be dead
-Don't listen to a word they say
Encouraging independence and self-preservation in the face of a challenging reality
Save yourself or you'll be dead
-Save yourself now
-Save yourself from this modern nightmare
