A Media Friendly Turn For The Worse Lyrics

Cover art for A Media Friendly Turn For The Worse lyrics by Norma Jean

I don't know if I'll be able to express myself, but here we go:

I think this song is about how we are controlled by the media and other things.

  • "I am a grain of sand underneath the floor and so far out of reach, but I am safe from harm."

We feel secure in our homes but we don't realize that we are "trapped" in an invisible prison.

  • "Our pain is always accurate and striving to evade its only design. It wants to strike you down to fall into its arms again."

They control our pain to keep us always under their control (arms).

"What I know was divided and broken down by the ignorance of others. Spoken from their lips, but with the lungs of another. Sounds great but tastes like blood. These rumor sessions are assembled by us all."

Facts are usually distorted due to bad faith or simply ignorance of someone (distorted even by the News Media). So we don't actually know the truth. These rumors leaves us lost.

"They are the earth and we are the breath of life."

I agree with holdenh13 when he said "He is making a comparison of earthly things vs. spiritual things." We can't let ourselves be driven by these things. We are here to bring life and heal this world.

PS: Sorry for my bad english =)
