Prisma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
MY GLADNESS IS DOGGEDLY – DEPLENISHED
TO FALL INTO NAKEDNESS
SEARCHING THE ELEMENTARY STARTING POINT
WHY IS THIS BULLSHIT SO PATHETIC – CURIOUS CONFUSING
LISTEN – WHEEDLER
SOPHISM IS MINE
TO VANQUISH IS FINE
SOPHISM IS MINE
TO VANQUISH IS FINE
ITS ONLY YOUR VINDICATION – SO IRITABLE
ARE YOU SCENTLESS
ABOUT YOUR SHALLOW POINTILLISM?
IS THIS YOUR INSTINCTIV ILLUSION – UNCONQUERABLE
AND NOW?
STRAPPING – STIMULOUS – STRANGULATE AND CONSIDER
IT
YOUR MUDDY MOUTH – SLEEPS IN THE EMBERS – OUT OF
HATRED
SPEAKS IN PLAIN TERMS
WANTING TO GIVE LIFE
WANTING FOR SELF ACCUSATION
WHY IS THIS BULLSHIT SO PATHETIC – CURIOUS CONFUSING
LISTEN – WHEEDLER
SOPHISM IS MINE
TO VANQUISH IS FINE
VISCOUS WAX SHUTS MY EYES – SUCK IT
SOPHISM IS MINE
TO VANQUISH IS FINE
ITS ONLY YOUR VINDICATION – SO IRITABLE
ARE YOU SCENTLESS
ABOUT YOUR SHALLOW POINTILLISM?
IS THIS YOUR INSTINCTIV ILLUSION – UNCONQUERABLE
AND NOW?
THEYRE BUILDING THIS EMOTIONABLE LAND
IT'S A LITTLE AND TIRED INNER DEFORMATION
TO DISHEVEL IN THE ACUSTIC SUGGESTIVEN DESSERT
UNCONDITIONALLY FOR HEALING – TOTAL HEALING
ITS ONLY YOUR VINDICATION SO IRITABLE
ARE YOU SCENTLESS
ABOUT YOUR SHALLOW POINTILLISM?
IS THIS YOUR INSTINCTIV ILLUSION – UNCONQUERABLE
AND NOW?
THEYRE BUILDING THIS EMOTIONABLE LAND
IT'S A LITTLE AND TIRED INNER DEFORMATION
TO DISHEVEL IN THE ACUSTIC SUGGESTIVEN DESSERT
UNCONDITIONALLY FOR HEALING – TOTAL HEALING
YOU FUCKER IN THIS MOMENT IS NEVER THE SAME
The lyrics of Prisma's song Paragon are complex and abstract, making it difficult to discern a straightforward meaning. However, the song seems to convey a sense of frustration and disillusionment with the world and the people in it. The opening lines, "Jostle - to an enervated solicitation, my gladness is doggedly depleted, to fall into nakedness" suggests a feeling of exhaustion and vulnerability, perhaps as a result of continually striving to fulfill societal expectations of success and happiness. The following lines, "Searching the elementary starting point, why is this bullshit so pathetic - curious confusing, listen - wheedler, sophism is mine, to vanquish is fine" suggest a sense of disillusionment with the values and beliefs that society imposes on individuals, and a desire to challenge and overcome them through the use of sophistry.
The chorus of the song, "Sophism is mine, to vanquish is fine, viscous wax shuts my eyes - suck it" seems to reaffirm the idea that the singer believes in the power of words and rhetoric to challenge and overcome societal norms and expectations. The second half of the song appears to be a call to action, urging listeners to embrace their emotions and seek total healing, rather than conforming to societal norms and expectations.
