A Shared Sense Of Reality
Unveiling Truth: A Shared Sense of Reality by The Slow Clock
Lyrics
She felt the pain
She experienced emotional distress or suffering.
The pain of the truth
The suffering caused by acknowledging a harsh or unpleasant reality.
The pain the truth must have felt
The emotional pain that the truth itself might have experienced.
When you manhandled
When someone handled something roughly or harshly.
In all honesty
Speaking with complete sincerity.
Candour and certainty
Speaking with confidence and assurance.
She said:
Introducing the words spoken by the person.
What you can't believe is not a matter of the truth
Challenging the idea that disbelief is disconnected from the truth.
A shared sense of reality's the best that we can do
Suggesting that a collective understanding of reality is the best achievable outcome.
I think the universe is trying to send us a message right as rain
Believing that the universe is attempting to communicate a clear message.
Correct me if I'm wrong there's too much drama in this so so comedy
Pointing out the excessive drama in a seemingly mundane situation.
From zero to a hundred where there once was silence I hear hobby horses
Describing a sudden transition from silence to chaos, symbolized by "hobby horses."
It's hiding in plain sight like blood on the capes of a million matadors
Suggesting that a significant truth is overlooked or unnoticed, similar to blood on the capes of matadors.
Let me put it this way
Introducing a metaphorical way of expressing a point of view.
And you'll push it back
Resistance or opposition to the presented idea.
That's how we will interact
Describing the interaction dynamics as pushing back.
So tie up the sails
Symbolizing the need to secure or control a situation.
Relay the derailed
Communicating the need to address and fix something that went off course.
And set foot on on soiled land
Stepping onto contaminated or troubled territory.
She said:
Reiteration of the earlier statement about disbelief and truth.
What you can't believe is not a matter of the truth
Reemphasizing the idea that disbelief is related to the truth.
A shared sense of reality's the best that we can do
Affirming the concept that a shared sense of reality is the most realistic expectation.
