Shouldn't the second verse of "and it feels just like the ground and trapped in another way just still in the ground" go something like this? "and it feels just like the ground the ground and trapped in another way just still in the ground the ground the ground" I know it seems nit-picky, but "the ground" is repeated several times, as is "rusted wheel planted still" in the 2nd last line. Anyway, this is such an amazing, beautiful, surreal song - all of SSPU songs are really - very calming and surreal music. Love it! |

The second verse, "My youth is slipping away... safe in monotony... day after day..." Currently descibes my life to the letter. The part in the film clip with the dude sitting in the office is basically me, right down to the facial expressions he makes when he's on the phone etc etc Hearing and seeing this song a few months back struck a deep chord with me. It was like a total slap in the face with a cold, wet towel, and since then, I have been unable to sit in this office and work - I'm going to need to face up to my boss sometime soon and tell him I can't stand working here in the monotony. This song is so totally true. The lines "Can't help but feel betrayed... there's no loyalty and no remorse..." are so totally true - you see it when you work in a corporate office job like mine. This song teaches such a valuable lesson - never let yourself get to the point where you're waking up in the morning every day only because that's all there is to do, because it slowly kills you. The world does betray young people by teaching them from a young age that going to work is a great thing (the economy needs mindless drones to work afterall), when in reality, most people will end up in a dead-end job, hating every minute of it, and slowly killing their souls - until they becomes completely apathetic drones. Everyone needs to hear this song, it reflects what is happening in society 100% |
