Fable
Kramus Lyrics

The lyrics to Kramus's song "Fable" speak to the idea of remaining in a state of chaos and madness for as long as one desires. The opening lines, "Remain here, as long as you would like, forty-eight hours of nothing but madness, lay waste to the mainland," set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is suggesting that there is something alluring about embracing chaos and leaving behind the safety and predictability of everyday life. The following lines, "And run, out from the sunshine, into the live wire we could contain, we fell if only for moments, and no one could show us why we failed to learn," suggest that the singer has made a choice to leave behind the safety and predictability of everyday life and enter into a realm of risk and danger. They have not necessarily been successful in their endeavors, but they are still seeking to learn from their experience.

The later lyrics, "I've fought off that which made me wrong, hypocrite fable to feed my own ego, watch the outcome rise," speak to the singer's struggle to overcome their own demons and to become a better person. They recognize that they have made mistakes in the past, but they are actively working to change and to become a better version of themselves. In the final lines, "Run, out from the sunshine, into the live wire we could contain, we fell if only for moments, and no one could show us why we failed to learn, why we failed, why we failed to learn," the singer reflects on the fact that even though they have experienced failure, they are still willing to take risks and to continue to seek knowledge and growth.
