March of Mannequins: A Poignant Reflection on Life's Monotonous Struggle
Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Wake up to the chronic cycle

Starting the day in a repetitive cycle

To the daily grind in the treadmill

Engaging in the monotonous routine of daily life

Every day melts together

Days blending together, losing distinctiveness

Sleep

Reference to the need for rest

Eat

Highlighting the essential activity of eating

Work

Emphasizing the obligatory nature of work

Repeat

Summarizing the repetitive nature of life

The numbness of no purpose, creates a void so hollow

Feeling purposeless leads to a profound emptiness

No misery

Absence of both suffering and joy

No bliss

Existence characterized by a void

Emptiness is all you know

Complete emptiness is the dominant experience


Watch the time slipping away

Awareness of time slipping away

Bleeding through one more day

Enduring through another day with difficulty

Repeat the never-ending march of mannequins

Repetition of a lifeless, mechanical routine

Now decide if it's a life worth living

Questioning the value of such a life


This is the greatest neglect of life

Highlighting the profound neglect of life's essence

Sleepwalkers that never wake

Describing individuals who go through life without awakening

clive and breathing yet dying inside

Alive in body but spiritually dying

Marching on

Continuing forward in a lifeless manner

Waiting for the end to come

Awaiting the inevitable end


Empty faces

Faces devoid of expression

Pale bodies

Lifeless and drained bodies

Roaming endlessly

Endlessly wandering without purpose

Organic machines obeying every pull of the string

People acting like machines, controlled by external forces

cll connection to the living is lost

Connection to living lost, becoming detached

cs man continues down the beaten path

Humanity following the well-trodden path

Pounding the pavement

Mindlessly moving forward


Forward march

Continuing to march ahead

Until the end of time

Persisting until the end of time

No way out for our wretched kind

No escape for the suffering humanity

Repeat the relentless march of mannequins

Repetition of a relentless, lifeless march

Now decide if it's a life worth living

Questioning the worthiness of this existence


This is the greatest neglect of life

Emphasizing the significant neglect of true life

Sleepwalkers that never wake

Depicting individuals who are asleep to the realities of life

clive and breathing yet dying inside

Physically alive but spiritually dying

Marching on

Continuing to march without true purpose

Waiting for the end to come

Anticipating the inevitable end


Making a living is not the same as creating a life

Pointing out the distinction between making a living and creating a meaningful life

Rushing through existence to reach a goal too far beyond

Rushing through life without enjoying the journey

In a race against time

In a competitive race against time

Death's the only peace to find

Death as the only solace

From the cradle to the grave

Life depicted from birth to death

The mannequins march on

The mechanical, lifeless progression continues


This is the greatest neglect of life

Reiteration of the significant neglect of true life
