Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly
Oh, bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
People might say that you're always sleeping
But you leave with your point of view
Do you think you would it take a disaster
To make people see, I do
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? I'm a funeral pyre
But bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly
What is it something about you can't say?
What is it something about you can't say?
What is it that you can't say?
Bring that Jolly
People might say that you're always sleeping
But you leave with your point of view
Do you think you would it take a disaster
To make people see, I do
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Down to the city underneath
The conscious areas of mind
But I hope you have the time
To realize that you're alive
I know
I know
I know
So people might say that you're always sleeping
But you leave with your point of view
Do you think you would it take a disaster
To make people see, I do
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Right at the core, twisted and raw
Do you leave? No
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Yes, I know you're not alone
The song "Seven" by ｡Forward Russia! seems to be a reflection on the human condition and the struggle to be understood by others. The repeated invocation to "Bring that Jolly Roger on home" seems to be a plea for authenticity and vulnerability - a call to cast off the masks we wear and show our true selves. The line "People might say that you're always sleeping, but you leave with your point of view" suggests that the singer feels misunderstood or overlooked, despite their attempts to communicate their perspective.
The lyrics also touch on the idea that sometimes it takes a disaster or tragedy for people to truly see one another. The repetition of the line "Do you think it would take a disaster to make people see?" emphasizes the longing for deeper connections and understanding between individuals.
The final lines of the song - "Right at the core, twisted and raw, do you leave? No" - suggest a determination to persevere and continue fighting for authenticity and connection, despite the challenges.
