foundation-med...
While listening to the chorus part of this song sometime in 2018, I heard word sounds in my mind and the word “drowning” fit it pretty well. I didn’t want to write about it literally though. Also, the lyrics on this album are supposed to be simple and quickly digestible with sound, then meaning as the order of importance.
Searching terms related to "drowning" is what led me to the word “confusion.” That made me think of the confusion surrounding the findings of Quantum Mechanics as one example. I found instances of physicists and mathematicians saying that the test results seemed strange and “wrong" and that they could not reconcile it with their view of reality. Some said there are things about it we cannot know, or maybe are not supposed to know. Einstein died confounded by Q.P. spending countless hours trying to reconcile it with the reality he knew. The myriad of unfounded conjectures outside the physics community conjured up a visual of a sea of unqualified internet commenters, and also a comedy skit with an agenda to manipulate viewers' perceptions of something under the guise of "it's just comedy."
Another interpretation is found within various and numerous situations that are not what they are claimed to be and are not fully understood until the strategically placed veil of confusion gets torn down via the power of Critical Thinking.
For a song lyric, I tried to find words that fit the meaning of the lyric a little bit, but that had a better sound than other words that were too literal.
I thought this might be interesting to know about. At the end of the day, it’s just a song for rocking out!
Lyrics:
A sunny pool in a sunny nation.
It got heated up from Penetrating Radiation.
But I jump right in, I can’t see.
can’t see what’s in front of me.
what’s right there; my eyes are closed.
and I don’t know, what I don’t know
is in front of me.
What’s in front of me?
still I don’t know, where I go
deep, deep down I fathom
I’m not drowning- I’m not drowning.
I’m being held - underwater.
I’m not drowning.
I am being held, but I will breathe!
A funny Fool on a sunny day.
it’s a comedy show, but not funny - nay.
So I jumped right in, I couldn’t see.
couldn’t see right in front of me.
What was right there, in front of my nose.
he’s fooling me with all the things I don’t know
are in front of me.
What’s in front of me?
things I’m not supposed to know,
shove me fathoms down.
I’m not drowning- I’m not drowning.
I’m being held - underwater.
I’m not drowning.
I am being held, but I will breathe!
Something’s wrong, something’s wrong
I’m not drowning, so what’s going on?
I know something’s wrong, been here too long.
I am being held underwater
I will breathe!
