I wouldn't say it was lyrically coherent enough to have a theme, as such. Musically gorgeous though:
The cigarette butt when you throw it in the water goes "pfft"
But the trick, but the trick is you shouldn't laugh
'Cause if you start laughing you're just a coward
If you start laughing you're just a coward
Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way
And see what your life can be
There's been songs about celebration
But if you ask me I can't see why
There's too much pain, too much pain in my heart now
You're gonna have to prove it to me
Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way
And see what your life can be
Now some people talking about ecology
Why don't somebody just do something 'bout it right now?
We're all chokin' on the air that we breathe now
How could we all just let it slide by
Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way
And see what your life
What your life
What your life can be
Thanks for posting this!!!!
I happen to think these lyrics are quite profound. There really is quite a profound unconscious/subconscious meaning here.
"What your life can be"
Brilliant!
Amazing!
