Rialto
Embracing Truth and Kindness: Rialto's Unveiling
Lyrics
We sit in small boxes, cookin' down news
We are confined in small spaces, processing news.
cll sorts of wild fantasy, stirring up views
Various imaginative stories are created, shaping perspectives.
Flavors of truth told from echoes on high
Different versions of truth are shared, influenced by distant echoes.
Confusion and illusion hide in plain sight
Confusion and deception are present but not easily noticeable.
What news on the Rialto I heard them cry
Hearing about events on the Rialto (a historic market in Venice).
Old pagan fires light up the sky
Reference to ancient pagan fires lighting up the sky.
Good neighbors they charm us with a vinegar smile
Neighbors impress with insincere smiles, hiding true feelings.
c hummin' and a drummin', while truth is on trial
Sounds of humming and drumming amid a trial of truth.
There is more that binds us, more than pulls us apart
Emphasizing commonalities that connect rather than divide.
In the darkness there is kindness there is life
In darkness, kindness and life exist.
In these moments we are holding, holding on too tight
Reflecting on moments of holding tightly to life.
Is there more to living than being right
Questioning whether living is more than just being right.
So, burn down these walls that keep us apart
Advocating for breaking down barriers that separate us.
Let's stand in the fire, throw down your heart
Encouraging facing challenges and embracing vulnerability.
New life begins as ember light dies
New beginnings emerge as old influences fade away.
Deep from the ashes a new moon will rise
A promising future rises from difficult experiences.
There is more that binds us, more than pulls us apart
Reiterating the idea that connections outweigh differences.
In the darkness there is kindness, there is life
Kindness and life persist in challenging times.
In these moments we are holding, holding on too tight
Reflecting on the importance of tightly holding onto life's moments.
Is there more to living than being right
Pondering whether there's more to life than being right.
