The thoughts of an individual who finds it difficult to understand representative images and words, wondering if encoded forms of expression really do constitute communicative activity. A voice from within fades and reveals the sound of a beating heart; the subject's own, it seems. Although as they listen to the sound of their own heart beating, they wonder if maybe it isn't just stuck on repeat? The central figure of the text then notices that someone within their scope of awareness seems to be racking up some serious cash, remarking upon how large of a fortune they could potentially amass and when, should they continue. This is stated out of both astonishment and encouragement for the ability of the undescribed, unnamed money-maker. The singer, on the other hand, asks if they are a part of the same continuum or culture as this person, never arriving at any direct answer but mentioning that they do not feel obliged to accept this or any other such pre engineered societal role. Their head contains a brain, not a bunch of rocks. The subject then asks if others listening are capable, like them, of reaching these same conclusions solely by way of their own intelligence and innate abilities of higher reasoning. The subject mentions that it is widely believed to be difficult to understand but then reassures anyone listening that that is not actually the case and any such preconceptions on the matter are hasty at best, uninformed at worst. However, the subject themselves still occasionally has to reach out for help in navigating these concepts. They are not always so sure of which direction is the correct one. The last verse seems to have something to do with friends and lovers in the singer's life that are narcissistic, nihilistic and completely willingly oblivious to everything in the world that is of any import whatsoever. |

| Endwell – Living Through Losses: 2/30/01 Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
Multiple songs on this record have additional titles (subtitles) after the main title and some of these take the form of American-style numerical dates. The title of this song is supplemented with the date "2/30/01" or in other words February 30th, 2001. February only contains twenty-eight days in common years and twenty-nine days in leap years and so therefore, no such date ever occured or ever will occur. Inclusion of this date as the subtitle of this song is intended to indicate events that the author does not believe he will ever actually see come to pass. I know; because he told me so himself.
