Omission
John Frusciante Lyrics

The lyrics of John Frusciante's song Omission convey a sense of detachment and isolation from oneself and others. The singer talks about "omitting" oneself from others and even from God, as if the act of removing oneself would be some sort of favor to the deity. The lyrics suggest a sense of dissatisfaction with oneself and the world, and the need to escape from it.

The singer talks about suffering fate, as if it were the only way to lift oneself up, perhaps indicating a belief in fatalism or lack of control over one's life. The lyrics mention dedicating everything from before to now, emphasizing what is not allowed, indicating a feeling of being restricted or confined. The song talks about going nowhere, as if it were the only clear shot, suggesting a lack of direction or purpose in life, perhaps pointing towards a sense of hopelessness or apathy.

The chorus of the song talks about the need for the other, implying a sense of loneliness or need for connection with someone or something. However, the lyrics also suggest that the force of rot, or perhaps negative emotions, are being centralized or magnified, indicating a lack of ability to connect positively with others. The singer talks about taking cover in someone's life, indicating a need for shelter or protection, but at the same time, it seems like the lyrics are suggesting that this protection is false or illusory.
