Lyrics
Everything really is stupidly simple
Everything in life is remarkably simple.
And yet all around is utter confusion
Despite the simplicity, there is widespread confusion and disorder.
Fairy tales written may help you to see it
Fairy tales, though fictional, may offer insights into this simplicity.
Do you understand about Lewis's Alice?
Referencing Lewis Carroll's "Alice," questioning if the listener comprehends the complexity within simplicity.
We fit all our lives into regular patterns
Our lives conform to regular patterns.
All that we really know is that we're really living
We only know that we are truly living.
(spoken:
Spoken lines begin.
The man that seeks the world, his wisdom seeks to know his mind
A person seeking the world is, in fact, seeking to understand their own mind and wisdom.
And knowing where his feet should walk, and when he should or should not
Emphasizing the importance of knowing where to step and when to speak, and the value of true friendship.
talk And have a friend to find
Encouraging self-awareness and genuine connections.
Don't look around to find the sound that's right beneath your feet
Advising not to overlook the immediate surroundings for answers.
The hermit sits inside his cave and seeks to know his mind
A hermit introspecting in solitude, seeking self-understanding.
Staring into empty space and seeing things in people's faces others cannot find
Observing the world and perceiving things that others may overlook.
Don't look around to find the sound that's right beneath your feet)
Reiteration: Do not ignore the present moment for answers.
We've nothing to hide so why try to hide it?
We have nothing to conceal, so there's no need to hide.
I know there are some but they're screwed up inside
Acknowledging that some individuals may be internally troubled.
If you need a reason for all this I'm singing
If seeking a reason for the song, it lies in the simplicity being the essence.
It's simpleness really that gives it its meaning
The true meaning comes from its simplicity.
