LYRICS
“Why’s my passion for these new ideals, making me unhinged
It’s time to fashion a different kind of zeal, I’ve become thin-skinned
This whole thing’s draining, it stole part of my life, need to get a grip
Can’t help complaining, the world is filled with Strife, time to reel it in
I believed every word they said, but they set me up and let me down
Can’t shake this feeling, my soul is filled with dread cause they built me up and tore me down
I’m despondent, I don’t know what to do, cause they let me down, they let me down
Different sides of the same coin
The spread of lies forced me to join, into this mockery
They turned this world, into a boil
To this new world i must recoil.”
How they evolve away from that to where they think the hatred and division is stupid, (Radical Lunacy), To where they just take a deep breath and Calm themselves from the situation. (Calm Ourselves).
To eventually leaving the philosophy of Left V Right and Division all behind (Leave it all behind)
To having a quick dream about a world that is a much better place, where we are all connected. (Children of the Sun)
To having one last go at reminding people that its time to move past it all. (Move on)
Despondent is the stage where the first realization comes that the time and energy spent towards hating the other side and getting caught up in the hysteria of hate has been energy completely misspent. They are disillusioned, and they feel lied to by the leaders of the movement . They are sick, listless, beside themselves. Despondent.
