Medley
E.K.R. & Nurotic Soundsystem Lyrics

Ask the girl of the hour by the water towers watch
Inquire from someone who has the current attention and is situated by a noteworthy location

If your friends took a fall, are you obligated to follow
Are you obliged to follow your companions when they experience a downfall?

Time after time after time
Repetition of time, emphasizing the frequency of a certain action or event

If your tired and you're tried you can find me in my room
If you're fatigued and exhausted, you can come to my place to rest.

You can stay if you want and the third time you can't lose
You're allowed to stay if you wish, and on the third occasion, it's a guaranteed victory.

If the bulls on his hooves, when you gather friends by the tower
If an unfavorable situation arises during a gathering by the tower

If you try to refuse, will they judge your worth by the hour?
Will your worth be judged based on your compliance or refusal?

Red rain is coming down
A metaphorical reference to something undesirable or negative happening

Pouring down on me
The impact or consequences of the negative event are affecting the artist directly

I come to you defenses down with the trust of a child
I approach you in a vulnerable manner, with the purity and trust of a child

Did you never call? I waited for your call
Did you forget to contact me? I was anticipating your call.

These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The multitude of opinions and suggestions are causing me to feel distant or estranged

The trees will bend, the cities wash away
Everything is temporary and subject to change, even the strongest of things.

The city on the river there is a girl without a dream
There is a girl residing in a city by the river who lacks ambition or aspiration.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A repeated apology for something that may have caused harm or discomfort.

Eastern to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down
Communication is currently unavailable or disrupted.

The wise man built his words upon the rocks
Knowledgeable individuals build their beliefs or statements on strong foundations.

But I'm not bound to follow suit
But I'm not limited to conforming or replicating their style.

The trees will bend, the cities wash away
Everything is ephemeral and malleable, even the strongest of things.

The city in the mountains there is a boy without a dream
There is a boy living in a mountainous city who lacks any aspirations.

Did you never call? I waited for your call
Did you forget to contact me? I was anticipating your call.

These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The multitude of opinions and suggestions are causing me to feel distant or estranged.

The ocean sang, the conversations dimmed
As the singer's emotions are heightened, their surroundings become more subdued.

Go buy yourself another dream, this choice wasn't mine
Gather another aim or goal, as this decision was not made by me.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A repeated apology for something that may have caused harm or discomfort.

I would swim the ocean deep
Expression of doing something that requires vast effort or going to great lengths to accomplish something.

Climb the highest mountain peak
Expression of doing something that requires vast effort or going to great lengths to accomplish something.

I come to you defenses down with the trust of a child
I approach you in a vulnerable manner, with the purity and trust of a child.
