Nothing Is the News Lyrics
Turn it around you found that they were all wrong
All you had heard, the ghosts of the words in a song
Nothing new have when all that you want is gone
I will never know, I will never know
You can't go back no the door has been closed
Standing outside just passing time till we die
There's nowhere to live and all that's been living is gone
I will never know, I will never know
I will never know
(That's my song)
Turn around you found that they were all wrong
All you had heard were ghosts of the words in a song
Nothing you had and all that you want is gone
I will never know, I will never know
I will never know
All you had heard, the ghosts of the words in a song
Nothing new have when all that you want is gone
I will never know, I will never know
Standing outside just passing time till we die
There's nowhere to live and all that's been living is gone
I will never know, I will never know
All you had heard were ghosts of the words in a song
Nothing you had and all that you want is gone
I will never know, I will never know

my interpretation is that the author comes to a realization that all he knew before, all he had been taught was actually wrong. It could be that he has lost his faith or trust in institutions that he had previously relied upon. Perhaps he had been fed myths and lies all his life. He then has to live with this new knowledge. It then becomes impossible for him to go back to how things were before. It is a bit like Nietzsche's death of God, the central question is how does one find meaning in life after the loss of such an important giver of meaning like religion? Another possible question could be: is it always good to find new knowledge?
Does knowledge always truly liberate?
