Unkind Love
Unkind Love: Navigating Life's Labyrinth of Suspicion and Desire
Lyrics
Something's got you on, yeah
Something has a significant impact on you.
The planet's spinning to a different song
The world is changing, and you feel disconnected.
The red light over head your cold, damp, empty bed
The presence of a red light above emphasizes a lonely and desolate atmosphere in your bed.
Is love unkind
Questioning whether love is cruel.
To a hardened spine
Love is harsh on a resilient spirit.
And the place that we call home, yeah
The place considered home is questioned or uncertain.
Thoughts unchained
Free-flowing thoughts without constraints.
Of suspicious ways
Distrustful and questionable behaviors.
Wouldn't you like to know
Expressing curiosity about undisclosed information.
Wouldn't you like to know
Repetition of the desire to know more.
You've been thinking for days, yeah
Extended contemplation over several days.
'Bout all the faces that you met in this maze
Reflecting on encounters in life's complex journey.
They're all going their way
People are pursuing their own paths.
Chasing their dreams
Pursuit of personal aspirations, likened to chasing dreams.
The rats after the cheese
Comparing individuals to rats chasing after desires.
Is love unkind
Questioning the kindness of love toward those perceived as uncultured.
To uncultured swine
Love can be harsh on those perceived as unsophisticated.
And the sty that they call a bed, yeah
Referring to an uncomfortable place associated with those considered uncultured.
To be ashamed of our suspicious ways
Expressing a preference for death over being ashamed of questionable actions.
I'd rather end up dead
Choosing death over living with shame.
But first I want to live
Desiring to live before facing death.
Live to the day I die
Expressing a wish to live until the last day.
And that day I die
Anticipating a unique death when the time comes.
I'm gonna' die one of a kind, yeah
Emphasizing a desire for a distinctive life.
Over and over and over again
Repetition of cycles, possibly representing life's challenges.
Til the day we're dead
Continuation of challenges until the end of life.
Over and over and over again
Repetition of life's struggles.
Til the day we're dead
Continued challenges until the end of life.
Over and over and over again
Reiteration of life's recurring difficulties.
Til the day we're dead
Emphasizing the persistence of challenges until death.
