about
This song is about the awareness that every single one of us is just a drop in the ocean, just a little piece of universe. The awareness that we're all just provisional.
We're just living entities.
We're just living entities.
lyrics
Have you ever been taught that to believe in yourself was enough for your dreams to come alive, in the end?
That's wrong.
In so many different ways every step towards your failure goes by counting your days
I can tell for sure that everyone feels special, but in the end nobody matters at all.
Constant denial won't make you feel any better, so count your blessings cause this is the last call
'Cause nobody gets something for nothing, no.
We're alive to suffer and struggle on our questioning
But if you stand for nothing you're destined to fall for everything
So, is that a leash that you're waiting for?
Oh no I can't take of your prissiness no more
You're never really there, which one's the part that you can't get?
You're holding on too close to the things you should let go
And what you think you know you should question once again
'Cause you're not special, now I see it all for what is worth
Me too, I used to have a dream
I fought for it, stood for it
What did I achieve?
If nothing is working you're given a task:
To live in misery or die in distress
Now I'm so self aware I don't have to feel sorry
For the broken, the lonely, 'cause I spread the warning
I'm so self aware I don't have to feel sorry
For the broken, the lonely, the beaten, the fallen
And I think I'm better off this time
'Cause my only aim's between the eyes
You're never really there, which one's the part that you can't get?
You're holding on too close to the things you should let go
And what you think you know you should question once again
We've all been here before, but we still feel lost
We're just individuals and despite what we all may feel
We're not any special or anything: this is what you're worth
We're just living entities on a rock in the space.
We're just living entities.
That's wrong.
