This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
For the record I’m tired
I’ve been running for days
But I can’t hide anymore
It's time to just settle here
The rain beats on my head
And I’m tired and cold
But I need shelter and sleep
so I can dream of a day when I return and I’m so bitter to you
I bet you left me out here
Along with the wolves
But I have a book on skills
To survive in the woods
Winters right around the bend and I’m scared
I’m planning for a storm that will blow the roof and doors off of every home
From here to L-A
From here to L-A
Should I follow you here
But I don’t know you like that
Should I give you my keys
And see if you will come back
This time
I’ve been running for days
But I can’t hide anymore
It's time to just settle here
The rain beats on my head
And I’m tired and cold
But I need shelter and sleep
so I can dream of a day when I return and I’m so bitter to you
I bet you left me out here
Along with the wolves
But I have a book on skills
To survive in the woods
Winters right around the bend and I’m scared
I’m planning for a storm that will blow the roof and doors off of every home
From here to L-A
From here to L-A
Should I follow you here
But I don’t know you like that
Should I give you my keys
And see if you will come back
This time
