Black Swan Lyrics

The song graphs a course from a drug high to a low.

The phrase black swan reminds me that historically it was thought that all swans were white and that finding a black swan was a surprising event. Maybe the addict looks forward to the high and forgets then gets surprised by the low.

It also reminds me of inductive categorical inference, seeing a white swan and assuming incorrectly that all swans are white. A single black swan is all that's required to disprove the statement that all swans are white.
