ALB Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't you see we've lost the game?
Maybe that was a question or the answer
At the end it's all the same
Spend all days with heads in the sand
And feign to be surprised
In my world for sure nothing else matters much for me
Somebody moved the seasons for a reason
Can't you see we've lost the game?
Someone's missed the motion to reaction
Do we know it's such a shame?
Pretend that we take the bull by the horns
It's a cutton pack of lies
In my world for sure things by the way they're coming out
And rack there for your eyes
And then you realize
Spend all days with heads in the sand
And feign to be surprised
In my world for sure nothing else matters much for me
than the tears in your eyes
And then sometimes have a dream
Going back when smoking didn't care
It's right, only make sense if you are commin' in
And I hope someday, I hope someday
You will
Watch out through the road we're tryna know
Cause it's a place we've never gone
Wish you watching through the road we're tryna know
The song "The Road" by ALB talks about the human tendency to ignore the problems around us and pretend that everything is fine. The opening line "Somebody moved the seasons for a reason, can't you see we've lost the game?" implies that there is a problem that needs to be addressed, but people are not acknowledging it. Maybe someone has manipulated the world for their own reason, and as a result, we have lost our way. The next line "Maybe that was a question or the answer, at the end, it's all the same," suggests that it does not matter whether we are asking the right questions or getting the right answers because the result will be the same if we do not take action.
The following lines "Spend all days with heads in the sand, and feign to be surprised, in my world for sure nothing else matters much for me than the tears in your eyes" indicate that the singer does not want to turn a blind eye to the problems and is deeply affected by the pain and suffering of others. However, people continue to ignore these issues and act surprised when the situation deteriorates. Despite this, the singer remains hopeful that someday people will come together to face these issues and take action to make the world a better place.
Overall, "The Road" is a powerful song that touches on the human tendency to ignore problems and pretend that everything is fine. It's a reminder that we need to take action if we want to make a positive change in the world.
