The Whole Point of No Return
Unveiling Social Injustice: "The Whole Point of No Return" Interpretation
Lyrics
The lords and ladies pass a ruling
The aristocracy makes decisions
That sons and girls go hand in land
Expectation for children to follow traditions and norms
From good stock and the best breeding
Emphasis on lineage and heritage
Paid for by the servile class
Financed by the working class
Who have been told all lie in state
The working class is told lies to maintain the status quo
To bow down forth and face their fate
They are expected to submit and accept their destiny
It's so easy.
Expressing the ease of the ruling class
So, so easy
Reiterating the ease of their position
All righteousness did build thy arrow
Using righteousness to criticize authority
To shoot it straight into their lies
To confront and challenge their falsehoods directly
Who would expect the mighty sparrow
A metaphorical representation of the underestimated
Could rid our world of all their kind?
Suggesting that even the seemingly powerless can cause change
Rising up and taking back
To reclaim what should belong to everyone
The property of every man
Ownership and rights for all individuals
Oh it's easy.
Reiteration of the simplicity for the ruling class
So, so easy
Reiterating the ease of maintaining control
Rising up to break this thing
To revolt against this oppressive system
From family trees the dukes do swing
How the elite maintain their power through lineage
Just one blow to scratch the itch
A single act can disrupt the established order
The law's made for and by the rich
Highlighting the biased nature of the law
It would be easy.
Stating the perceived simplicity of change
So, so easy.
Reiteration of the perceived simplicity of change
