Getaways Turned Holidays Lyrics

Fate leave on my doorstep.
A soldier. A soldier.
A fable, a fortune.
I long for. I long for.

Ever so secret I see
what's in store for me.
I won't let it mislead.
Oh no.
No, i hasn't happened yet.

As for the dying and the fading
and resolve to be.
Okay with the natural decay.
I'll choose illusion.
And safety a hundred times over.
I'm supposed to be happy and
deceived.

Let us find perfection.
Nonesense in all we are.
And save defects for later.
We're angels now.

Hide my uniform pride.
Your arrogant side.
I'm aching already.

Hide your taciturn,
mundane expressions.
Affection will carry us a little
while more.

Let us be entertained.
Let me beleive it ends this way.

As for the daying,
And as for the rotting.
I'm okay with natural decay.

I'll choose illusions
and safety a hundred times over.
I'm prepared to be happy and deceived.

I'm supposed to be happy
and deceived.
I'm prepared to be
happy and deceived.

Drop this curtain
I'm happy and naive

This Meg & Dia's aethist/agnostic opus. They're saying how they've come to grips that there is no afterlife (in their opinion) and that they are okay with "natural decay". How they also believe that believing in any such afterlife is decieveing themselves.

This song is about living for the here and now. There is nothing after this, which they have resolved themselves to, so they are going to make the fullest of what they have now.

P.S. This idea comes from the idea that we were all born without a purpose and we are insignificant and worth nothing more than anything else in this plant, such as fish, which births self worship-living for one's self and acting purely on what they believe and want (which isn't just selfishness or greed, kindness comes from this too, I'm not denying that) and this theory comes from the basis of Darwinism. Darwin's theories are what spawned a specific German's ideas about life and compelled him to act upon them. He was able to win other Germans to see things his way, and thus the Jewish genocide was born, along with the killing off of those deemed to weak to survive. I just felt the need to point that out.

Only the strong survive. Vawy vawy interesting though

wait, are you stating "Only the strong survive" as fact or just restating one of the things I mentioned?

(In response to the last thing posted on my last comment)

  1. Hitler was part Jew
  2. He's a German that created the political party called Nazism.
  3. I wouldn't call Darwin brilliant, just someone who said something that other people took differently than they should have and have used it and twisted it and reworded it.
  4. Darwinism is, at it's core, the belief in evolution. you can't really say evolution is true while Darwinism is not.
  5. I think people should pay more attention to the fact that a.) Darwin never considered himself an atheist-just that he was uncertain about God (agnostic), and b.) Darwin himself stated that if there was no proof to be found of his theory, then it wasn't true. He knew that it was possible since it was just an idea that occurred to him. No evidence has been found showing the proof of evolution, therefore it is not true. "I am well aware that scarcely a single point is discussed in this volume in which facts cannot be adduced, often apparently leading to conclusions directly opposite to those at which I have arrived." - Charles Darwin on "Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection"
  6. Also his statement about "survival of the fittest" is wrong as well. "But is this the way it really is? We submit to each thinking person that this is not the way it is. The argument against it is painfully simple: if the lay of the jungle were indeed a law, if the survival of the fittest were the way it is, there then would be only one being on earth-the strongest-and that not for long." -Dave Breese
