Joy
Radical Noise Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I couldn't realize it yet
I ask myself why i repeat it everyday
Answer lies inside me: I'm free to say
The joy of secret is the meaning of life
Never-ending anger is proof of my pride
Because my mask never lets me cry
I hear the birdie say, "have a good day" (x2)
Felll the cat's walk in a silent way (x2)
What you fear is what you get - A little cry for help
What you get is what you bet - I'd like to be poet
A little cry for help
I couldn't sleep from dusk 'till dawn
And I just keep wondering why
Why do billions sleep at night?
Because of the unseen in the dark?
What could it be?
The fear of recognize the emptiness!
I hear the birdie say, "have a good day" (x2)
Felll the cat's walk in a silent way (x2)
What you fear is what you get - A little cry for help
What you get is what you bet - I'd like to be poet
A little cry for help
The song Joy by Radical Noise explores the common human experience of being trapped in a mental cycle of negativity and anxiety. The first verse acknowledges the beauty of the day but notes that the singer is unable to enjoy it due to their internal struggle. The line "I ask myself why I repeat it every day" could refer to the daily struggle with mental health issues that cannot be overcome easily. However, the artist discovers that the answer lies within them; they have the freedom to express themselves and find ways to deal with these feelings.
The chorus is where the song gets its title from, "The joy of secret is the meaning of life, never-ending anger is proof of my pride." The idea here is that the joy we find while dealing with our pain or secrets is ultimately what gives meaning to our lives. The anger that never stops is an indication of our tenacity, that we are survivors despite the pain we carry. It is a sign of our inner strength that we hold our heads high even when we may feel like breaking down.
The bridge of the song questions why people sleep at night, wondering if it is to avoid facing the emptiness that comes with recognizing our fears. The song closes with the same chorus, with the repeated mention of the bird and the cat as a symbol of the peaceful and natural world that exists as a balance to the turmoil we feel.
Overall, Joy is a song of resilience; it acknowledges that it is okay to cry for help but also emphasizes the need to find our own ways to deal with mental health issues. Through it all, the song reminds us that there is a beauty in finding joy in the midst of our struggles.
