Material Condition
Rediscovering Life's Essence: Material Condition Unveiled
Lyrics
I wasn't always going backwards
I used to move forward in life.
But there's pretension to pretend
There's a falseness in pretending.
When you smashed up all the mirrors
Breaking the mirrors symbolizes a fresh start or rebirth.
Baby I was born again
After the metaphorical rebirth, a new beginning.
Now I can play it free and easy
Now I can live without constraints.
Not from a place of pride or pity
Freedom comes not from pride or pity.
Just too much time spent with the serious ones
Spending too much time with serious individuals.
The silent types feel like forever
The quiet and reserved seem to last forever.
But what's the use in being number one?
Questioning the value of being the best.
When the devils I the things you've done
Reflection on the negative consequences of one's actions.
And in the details of the things you do
Noticing the intricacies of your actions.
It's a material condition
Life is affected by materialistic circumstances.
I don't know who you think I was
Uncertainty about how others perceive the speaker.
Everything is gently humming
Harmony in everything, possibly due to nature.
Because the sky said just because
Things happen without a specific reason.
And things look younger from a distance
Objects or situations seem better from a distance.
Time takes it easy on the stars
Time treats celestial bodies gently.
If you were burning any bolder
If you were more daring, I might not seem distant.
I probably wouldn't seem so far
(Blank line)
And if you feel it then you know it's true
If you experience it, you recognize its truth.
These things come obvious to you
Certain truths are evident without explanation.
It's in the details of the things you do
Details of actions reveal their significance.
