What makes Trent's songs cool is that he DOESN'T have any answers. His music is his own dialogue with himself. Should we give into happiness and become a slave, or remain free but cursed to never being happy? Slavery can indeed lead to happiness. It's what society was founded on. Does a slave mentality lead to happiness or does happiness lead to a slave mentality? Does unhappiness lead to being independent or does independence lead to unhappiness? This unanswered paradox is Trent's, and our, plight.
Yeah, i totally agree. His music is so easy to relate to because he doesn't know the answers he's just laying out his inner conflicts which are very insightful. For some reason this reminded me of the book fahrenheit 451.. introspection and independent thought might mean you discover some unpleasant truths, but just because they may be unpleasant it doesn't mean there is no value in doing so. does that make sense? lol
