Astronautalis – The Waterfall Lyrics 13 years ago
Well I think this song has a lot of subconscious meanings.
This song is about the pressures of being someone who kids and people look up to. The beginning sets up what its like to be on stage and so forth. Just put yourself in his shoes, ever show he plays he has fans crowding around him, wanting this and that...most people probably say about the same thing "I love your music, thank you" "You're my hero" and I'm sure its over whelming. Although he loves it. Although he is heard and has a strong identity, he also loses that in a way because most people love him for his music, but he can't just be a normal guy...he has to put on a smile and act nice to all the adoring fans all the time regardless of how tired he is.
I don't know if this makes since just my thoughts as I was listening to the song, I'm just rambling.
