Trial
Gabriel Garzón-Montano Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Maybe I'll learn the rules, make out like the fools
Maybe I'll hide away in a daze, a life without pain

Maybe I'll sit around and time will lay me down
I'll make like good for nothing
Maybe I'll play the game and trade my trust for fame and
Still be just as lonely
Maybe I'll learn the rules, make out like the fools
Maybe I'll ride a wave make my days a song with no name





Overall Meaning

In Gabriel Garzón-Montano's song "Trial," the artist finds himself contemplating a range of possibilities about his life. He considers the idea of learning the rules, playing the game, and seeking validation through fame, but ultimately recognizes that none of these pursuits will truly bring him the happiness and fulfillment he desires. The lyrics "Maybe I'll learn the rules, make out like the fools" suggest that the singer may conform to societal norms, but acknowledges the potential emptiness in doing so. The lyric "Maybe I'll play the game and trade my trust for fame and still be just as lonely" highlights the idea that success in the entertainment industry is often accompanied by isolation and a lack of genuine connections. Ultimately, the artist seeks a life without pain, and perhaps even finds solace in the idea of "making [his] days a song with no name," rejecting the need for external validation and instead finding joy in the act of creation itself.


Line by Line Meaning

Maybe I'll learn the rules, make out like the fools
Perhaps I will conform to societal norms and pretend to be ignorant of my true desires


Maybe I'll hide away in a daze, a life without pain
Maybe I'll retreat from reality and live a numb, painless existence


Maybe I'll sit around and time will lay me down
Perhaps I'll be idle and let time pass me by without taking action


I'll make like good for nothing
I'll act useless or unproductive


Maybe I'll play the game and trade my trust for fame and
Perhaps I'll sacrifice my integrity for superficial recognition


Still be just as lonely
Despite my fame, I will still be plagued with loneliness


Maybe I'll ride a wave make my days a song with no name
Maybe I'll go with the flow and live a life without direction or purpose
