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.
The crows outside my window,
Singing love songs and i have heard it all before.
They say they're better than all the other birds who are beautiful and bourne
And i agree, somebody ask me what i believe
My heart's a ghost town, the world's a breeze
There's something haunted, inside of me
The workers in my finger hate their day jobs and they are screaming to be free
They hate the mountains, fear the morning and think the sunset's a disease
And i agree, somebody tell me what i believe
My eyes are children, the world's a screen
And i'm directing, a comedy
I bet you're just like me, maybe exactly
Just like a chimpanzee, almost exactly
Rotate my mouth inwards and eat my heart out 'cause I am in over my head
The bar's been raised where i once stood and i am hanging by a thread
We'll have you know, all those words that you have said
My world's a spider, my hearts a web
My thoughts are insects, they'll soon be dead
I bet you're just like me, maybe exactly
Just like a chimpanzee, almost exactly
I bet you're just like me, maybe exactly
Just like a chimpanzee, almost exactly
Singing love songs and i have heard it all before.
They say they're better than all the other birds who are beautiful and bourne
And i agree, somebody ask me what i believe
My heart's a ghost town, the world's a breeze
There's something haunted, inside of me
The workers in my finger hate their day jobs and they are screaming to be free
They hate the mountains, fear the morning and think the sunset's a disease
And i agree, somebody tell me what i believe
My eyes are children, the world's a screen
And i'm directing, a comedy
I bet you're just like me, maybe exactly
Just like a chimpanzee, almost exactly
Rotate my mouth inwards and eat my heart out 'cause I am in over my head
The bar's been raised where i once stood and i am hanging by a thread
We'll have you know, all those words that you have said
My world's a spider, my hearts a web
My thoughts are insects, they'll soon be dead
I bet you're just like me, maybe exactly
Just like a chimpanzee, almost exactly
I bet you're just like me, maybe exactly
Just like a chimpanzee, almost exactly
