Brave New World
Awake Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
It's eating my time yeah
And all this dirt under my nails
Denials and Confessions
We all feel, beyond doubt
Welcome to the 'Brave New Normal'
We all fear, Achilles new heel
Welcome to the brave new world
We face each day behind a mask
2020 vision's useless
My views conflict with those I love
And we shoot down our heroes
We all feel, we all doubt
Welcome to the 'Brave New Normal'
We own fear, we all know too well
The human spirits never backing down
Download each lesson in your bed at night
Listen to the dogma every brave new site
Stop fighting, left and right wing
Divide and conquer everyone
The opening lines of the song "Brave New World" by Awake delve into the experience of feeling lost and consumed by distractions and obligations. The mention of "rabbit hole" suggests falling into a confusing and disorienting place, where time seems to slip away unnoticed. The imagery of dirt under one's nails symbolizes the weight of past mistakes and secrets that one carries.
As the song progresses, the lyrics shift to a broader societal commentary on the current state of affairs, referencing the "Brave New Normal" that we find ourselves in. This phrase hints at a world that is fundamentally changed and unfamiliar, where certainty and stability have given way to doubt and fear. The mention of Achilles' new heel alludes to a vulnerable spot or weakness that poses a threat in this brave new world.
The repeated refrain of "Welcome to the brave new world" serves as a stark invitation to acknowledge and confront the challenges and uncertainties that lie ahead. It suggests a sense of resignation or acceptance of the reality that has unfolded, where masks have become a necessary shield and even relationships are strained by conflicting perspectives and beliefs. The shooting down of heroes hints at a disillusionment with figures once admired or revered.
The final verses of the song bring attention to the power dynamics at play, urging listeners to critically examine the information and narratives they are exposed to. The call to "Download each lesson in your bed at night" speaks to the constant influx of teachings and ideologies that shape our understanding of the world. The reference to dogma from "brave new site" highlights the influence of media and technology in shaping opinions and fueling division. Ultimately, the plea to stop fighting and resist divisive tactics underscores the importance of unity and solidarity in navigating the complexities of this brave new world.

The guy who read this deserves so much praise, the way he impersonated each character, making them so distinct you could tell who it was immediately.... truly wonderful.
