This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Blind, blinded by the light
Nothing can I see
All the whisper got me to the place I want to be
If you take my hand
Insecurity all the things that bind us to the enemy
What has become of the beautiful
I’ve waited all my life to see
All I see is an ugly world
No way to hide and no way out
When I open my eyes I am in the dark
With all the darkness around me
So help me I want to be blind
How could I be so wrong
How could you be so right
Just the same old scenario
No one is going to see
See what you want to see
How could you be so blind
Why, why do you turn away
Everything you see
All the product of the life you lived in empathy
What has become of the beautiful
I’ve waited all my life to see
All I see is an ugly world
No way to hide and no way out
When I open my eyes I am in the dark
With all the darkness around me
So help me I want to be blind
How could I be so wrong
How could you be so right
Just the same old scenario
No one is going to see
See what you want to see
How could you be so blind
Blind
(Solo)
Esta noche soy ciego y no quiero vivir
Este mundo no es el que conoci
Hoy se visten las rosas de negro por ti
Al saber que estas viva y no junto a mi
(How could you be so blind)
Esta noche soy ciegoy no quireo vivir
(With all the darkness around me - so help me I want to be blind)
Hoy se visten las rosas de negro por ti
(How could you be so wrong, how could you be so right)
Esta noche soy ciegoy no quireo vivir
(Just the same old scenario - no one is going to see)
Hoy se visten las rosas de negro por ti
(See what you want to see - how could you be so blind)
Esta noche soy ciego y no quiero viviri
(How could you be so blind)
Hoy se visten las rosas de negro por ti
(How could you be so blind)
Esta noche soy ciego y no quiero vivir
(How could you be so blind)
Hoy se visten las rosas de negro por ti
(How could you be so blind)
Nothing can I see
All the whisper got me to the place I want to be
If you take my hand
Insecurity all the things that bind us to the enemy
What has become of the beautiful
I’ve waited all my life to see
All I see is an ugly world
No way to hide and no way out
When I open my eyes I am in the dark
With all the darkness around me
So help me I want to be blind
How could I be so wrong
How could you be so right
Just the same old scenario
No one is going to see
See what you want to see
How could you be so blind
Why, why do you turn away
Everything you see
All the product of the life you lived in empathy
What has become of the beautiful
I’ve waited all my life to see
All I see is an ugly world
No way to hide and no way out
When I open my eyes I am in the dark
With all the darkness around me
So help me I want to be blind
How could I be so wrong
How could you be so right

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
about the corruption of mankind i believe , how a man has seen the world for how it really is, and he hates it and wants it to be back uncorrupt how he used to think it was such as a child starts as innocent but as he grows older he finds more evil in the world and this is maybe what its about :)
