Buck 65
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
When young, we mourn for one woman as we grow old for women in general. The tragedy of life is that man is never free, yet strives for what can never be. The single-most (?) secret always happens; my life, my love, what are they now?
2
But the more the pain grows, the more this instinct for life somehow asserts itself. The necessary beauty in life is in giving yourself to it completely. Only later will it clarify itself and become coherent.
3
I wander the fields and listen for the sound of drums
4
the colder the ground becomes the closer I get to home.
5
the planet's not fit to roam, what, with all the chaos
6
but when I saw the savages
7
I played the law of averages
8
And when the river splits in half,
9
I start to lose my wits and laugh and cry at the same time
10
there's nothing I can do about it
11
even though I wouldn't doubt it if the winds began to blow
12
and carried the sounds of my voice
13
to the land below
14
so I put my hands around my mouth
15
and holler to the sunken city
16
that wallows in the filth of its own drunken pity
17
and wait to see a signal
18
but a signal's never seen
19
eventually fatigue builds inside me exponentially
20
and so I sleep
21
and dream that I am able to fly with wings
22
later I awake in agony and learn
23
that while I was sleeping, the city had burned
24
shrugging my shoulders, I pause and gather thought
25
think twice about staying put
26
and then decide I'd rather not
27
so I press on in my agnostic pilgrimage
28
knowing that I can swim deeper
29
than the grim reaper,
30
ready for whatever sea creatures may abound
31
when the water swallows me and not the other way around
32
survival saw me through the mechanical district
33
starvation lays to bay cannibalistic
34
I've had to rely on cuns and and silence and talking quick
35
defending myself with nothing but my walking stick
36
I've never had friends and no parental guidance
37
I'm wild at heart and weird on top
38
I'm feared nonstop even though my rage has worn out
39
my life's a book with several pages torn out
40
I just climb trees and look for rhythm everywhere,
41
I used to be the town crier in a city of stone-throwers
42
until my soul was laid bare
43
and displayed in the pearly square
44
ignored more than a lot, not less
45
no on understood my thought process
46
I was gagged and bound over noise complaints
47
but commanding the resolve that destroys constraints
48
I found my escape in a melding of memories
49
and the next thing I know I'm rowing this boat
50
and blowing this note
51
on an old tarnished trumpet
52
ever since then I've been wandering lots
53
watching sky and pondering thoughts
54
strange angel, music box genie,
55
behind for some time now I'm blind in one eye
56
and how this happened exactly will never be known.
