Another Distraction
Rising Above Chaos: Another Distraction Unveiled
Lyrics
Good morning friends, nice to see you again
Expressing a friendly greeting and reconnecting with others.
Things might be worse than we can comprehend
Acknowledging that the situation may be more challenging than one can fully grasp.
It's OK if all you want to do is cry
Encouraging acceptance of emotional expression, particularly crying.
From A to B to C to Death
Symbolizing life's journey from birth (A) to various stages (B, C) leading to death.
Where are you in your alphabet?
Asking about one's position or progress in life's journey.
Mail me your letter, hope to see it before I die
Requesting communication and connection through written letters.
Ch-Check 1-2
Audio check, preparing for a message.
The world's gone mad
Commenting on the chaotic state of the world.
We're tired of being tired and being so sad
Expressing fatigue and sadness with the current state of affairs.
Look over there (Where?) here comes Another Distraction
Noticing and pointing out the arrival of another distraction in life.
Ch-Check 1-2

Is this thing on?
Ensuring that the communication device is functioning.
Hope you can hear me, hope you're staying strong
Expressing hope for the audience's well-being and strength.
No time to wait (No!) we all need to take action
Emphasizing the urgency to take action without delay.
So now it's back to school, authoritarian rule
Commenting on a return to a structured environment with strict rule enforcement.
At least your designer mask looks cool
Acknowledging the superficial appeal of fashionable protective masks.
I couldn't write a Hollywood script less real
Rejecting the idea of a Hollywood-scripted life as less real.
Feel like a month in a day, a year in a week
Expressing the feeling of time passing quickly with intense experiences.
We got no paddle but we're up the creek
Facing challenges without the means to overcome them.
Election time - let's see what they try to steal
Commenting on the suspicious nature of elections and potential manipulation.
Ch-Check 1-2
Audio check, repeating the observation of a mad world.
The world's gone mad

Pointing out the arrival of yet another distraction.

No time to wait (No!) we all need to take action
Commenting on the correlation between testing and the acknowledgment of shortcomings.
The more we test shows the more we lack
Highlighting distrust in science and the prevalence of alternative facts.
They don't trust science, got alternative facts
Criticizing those who manipulate others for their own gain.
And wolf whistles for those that would do their bidding
Pointing out the use of partisan news to create confusion.
With partisan news, meant to confuse
Rejecting external negativity and chaos.
Just keep that bull____ off of my shoes
Expressing the paradox of being alive but feeling unfulfilled.
We're alive but it don't feel like living
Audio check, repeating the observation of a mad world.
