Authorship of Our Lives
Lonely Robot Lyrics

I guess you're running out
It seems that you are running out of things to say or ideas.

I know I'm running out, of lines to say
I am aware that I am also running out of things to say, or perhaps things to believe in.

As if it even matters
As if anything we do or say has any real consequence or impact on the world around us.

The planet parasite
Humanity, as a whole, can often behave like a parasite to the planet we inhabit.

Devours all it can
We often consume far more resources than we need, and at a rate that is not sustainable.

And where is the regret or reason?
Despite the damage we cause, we often seem to lack remorse or a logical justification for our actions.

Sing on sing on
Continue to sing or speak out, even in the face of hardship or despair.

You know it doesn't have to be this way
We have the power to change our current path, and it is not necessarily predetermined or inevitable.

Come on come on
Encouraging oneself or others to take action and not give up hope.

We will find light in the end
Eventually, we will overcome our struggles and find a way forward.

So goodbye to all the past
Leave behind old hurt or mistakes, and move on with renewed purpose.

I will not give up on this today
We must continue to fight for what we believe in, regardless of how difficult it may seem.

I should have bit my tongue
I regret speaking out in a way that was not helpful or productive.

I should have shut my mouth
Perhaps it would have been better if I had refrained from speaking at all.

But where on earth's the use in lying?
There is no point in deceiving oneself or others, as it only leads to further problems.

This was a paradise
The world or situation we were in previously may have seemed idyllic, but could not have lasted forever.

It's only borrowed time
The good times we experience cannot last indefinitely, and we should appreciate them while we can.

So tell me where's the point in trying?
During difficult times, it can be tempting to give up or stop putting in effort, but we must continue to strive for better outcomes.

In the light of the dying sun
We are facing the decline or end of something significant, like a day ending as the sun sets.

In the night of the longest knives
During a time of great strife or hardship, when danger looms like a weapon in the darkness.

We are writing a sad demise
Our actions, decisions, and reactions are leading to an unfortunate or tragic end.

If a lesson has passed us by
We may have missed an opportunity to learn from our mistakes or past experiences.

Every history repeats itself
Humanity tends to make similar mistakes or encounter similar issues throughout time, never truly learning from our experience.

We are living beyond the lies
It is time for us to face the truth and live in a way that is honest and authentic to ourselves and our world.

In the authorship of our lives
We are the ones who determine the course of our narrative, and it is up to us to make it meaningful and worthwhile.
