| Fischerspooner – Emerge Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| If you were a buddhist you would understand this, It is about the emptiness and how you have emerged from it when you were born. All existence is suffering, so buddha was trying to say the same thing that this song. That you don't have to emerge from nothingness, in fact you never left it. You don't exist and life is just a dream. To see dream as reality is to suffer, to see dream as a dream is freedom. You don't have to emerge from nothingness and suffer - that is what it says. But people are to afraid of nothingness as it was their enemy. Ha! what a tragic mistake... | |

| It seems that all of fischerspooner lyrics are about spiritual searching, and are deeply influenced by the teachings. And that is quite surprising. | |

OH YEAH IT HURTS SO GOOD IT MUST isn't it that way? I always thought that this is about a descructive love affair, "Lets play along and let each other lose" sounds creepy but also kinda sexy in some morbid way |

To me this song is not about relationship with others. In fact it is very nice lyrics. What it is about? It is about mind, or you can call it an ego. If you have some knowlege about nonduality, advaita, or even buddhism (zen) it will help you to understand this. I don‘t need to need you Tell me what to do Tell me what to say these verses are addressed to the mind. Everything what you do and say is imposed by the mind, and one who wants to transcend the mind at first have to rebel against its constant "help", he have to stop needing it. So author discribes this part of the "path to freedom" If I was not me I would hate me too Just like you do You can say that mind who made himself a master hates you, he always tells you that you are not good enought, that you don't have enought, that you can't be happy as you are right now, basicly it is constantly making troubles, (and then it tells you what to do and say to get rid of them) It‘s all made worse by a simple scheme You‘re slipping away from me It it all that way by the scheme that assume that you are the person. In fact we are the persons only in the mind, and you have to hold on to it very hard or otherwise it will slip away Can‘t decide sometimes if it‘s worth the point The point is the struggle, insecurity So for the feeling of being a particular person you have to pay in struggle and insecurity. Because you have to make this person happy, chase pleasure and avoid pain. And of course there is this constant factor of insecurity and fear of loss of what you have. Hopefully, you make no mistake If you learn from what you‘ve got to take Good or bad, it‘s all gonna add up in the end but, You can never win. This again is to the mind. It shows a healthy approach towards the mind. Mind can learn and should learn so that it won't produce suffering anymore. But author knows that in the end all its plans for salvation will fail, and mind will be totally erased by its death. So he uses it but don't depend on in. And it‘s the desperation to hold on to Something that can‘t be held on to mind and its projections are not something that one can hold on to. If one clings to the dreamworld of the mind his desperation will only grow, and grow. Buddha said that the only constant thing in the world is change. those verses points to this So, Don‘t waste your time filling up my words Don‘t tell me why, assume the worst. Again look at it as it is adressed to this restless, ever anxious mind. Don‘t thank me, Don‘t tell me how, Don‘t break me down, Don‘t help me make it, It seems like those words points to the concept of enlightenment. Once mind hears about a way out of it into freedom, its starts to do its old stuff, telling how it should be done, trying to help you etc. But author refuse it all. Not only the "bad" side of mind but also the "good" one. Other song "emerge" from fs it also in this spirit, It tells that you don't have to emerge from nothingness and become a person and tear away, that you can step back into oneness. thanks. |
