Ignorance
Allergy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And take the deepest fall
When everything seems perfect
We drop and lose it all
Neverending stories
Of faith and lies and passion
Memories are blocked
Running in circles
Figures in a game
Puppets bound to strings
No one is to blame
Why do we believe in love?
Why do we forget so fast?
Why do we trust each other?
Why do we ignore the past?
Pretending ignorance
Fool yourself and others
Though we know the truth behind it all
We're not tired to discover
In the end we find ourselves
Brought down to earth again
One should think this is enough
But we move on and take the pain
Running in circles
Figures in a game
Puppets bound to strings
No one is to blame
Why do we believe in love?
Why do we forget so fast?
Why do we trust each other?
Why do we ignore the past?

The chorus of the song poses a few relevant questions that we often ask ourselves. Why do we believe in love? Why do we forget our past? Why do we trust each other? Why do we pretend ignorance? These lines suggest that humans often choose to overlook harsh truths and continue to move on, even if it entails experiencing pain and suffering.
The second verse of the song talks about how people are like puppets bound to strings, running in circles, and playing figures in a game, all without taking any responsibility for their actions. The lyrics suggest that people are not willing to learn from their past mistakes, despite the pain and downfall that it brings, causing them to stay ignorant of the truth.
Overall, the lyrics of Ignorance reveal the complicated and often tumultuous nature of human relationships and the choices they make, often at the expense of their happiness and well-being.
Line by Line Meaning
We celebrate ourselves
We take pride in who we are
And take the deepest fall
But when we fail, we fall hard
When everything seems perfect
Even when things are going well
We drop and lose it all
We can still lose everything
Neverending stories
There are always stories to be told
Of faith and lies and passion
These stories involve belief, deceit, and strong emotion
Memories are blocked
We try to block out painful memories
Suppressed by pure obsession
But our obsession with them keeps them alive
Running in circles
We keep repeating the same patterns
Figures in a game
Playing roles in life's game
Puppets bound to strings
Feeling controlled by something or someone else
No one is to blame
But really, we are all responsible for our own actions
Why do we believe in love?
Why do we keep falling for something so unpredictable?
Why do we forget so fast?
We can't seem to hold onto memories for long
Why do we trust each other?
Why do we keep giving others the benefit of the doubt?
Why do we ignore the past?
We tend to overlook the lessons we've learned
Pretending ignorance
Acting as if we don't know what's really going on
Fool yourself and others
But we're fooling ourselves and those around us
Though we know the truth behind it all
Deep down, we know what's really happening
We're not tired to discover
And we keep searching for answers
In the end we find ourselves
Events lead us to a place of self-discovery
Brought down to earth again
And we realize our human limitations
One should think this is enough
We should learn from our experiences
But we move on and take the pain
But instead, we keep going and endure the hardships
