"Born To Get High". This is primarily a live-without-regret club/dance song, & the last verse says it all: "(life) Ain't worth livin' if you can't get your kicks". IOW, life is short and spontaneous thus we should get the most out of each day like it were our last (as indeed it could be), so get out there and get wasted on your favorite drug; be it substance, adrenaline, or "life" itself (aka The Dance Floor in this case, I think). Let's not forget, this is electro trance we're dealing with. On that note, regarding any religious references that may arise; It's not just the stupefied Christian who gets to raise up hands, singing and dancing in euphoria to a sermon on the mount - A raver can have a greater euphoric experience on the dance floor, hands up in worship of the DJ on the alter etc...think about it. inter-related alternatives: fatalism. "Born To Be Wasted": let's all "get our kicks" in life, & live without regret, because who ever we are, & what ever we do, the very efforts of our being is "wasted" as in the end we all rejoin the ether from which we came, anyway. Very secular & philosophical, indeed. |
