North Star
SCALLER Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dream is a comforting illusion
Reality is a nightmare monster
Hate is a powerful emotion
Forgiveness leads you to the north star

I set my house in order,
Before i let my self out the door
I′m chasing what is matter,
Don't wanna change the world

All you want is everything
All you need is more

Who will cry when i die?
Who will cry when i die?

If all i want is everything
If all i need is more

Dream is a comforting illusion
Reality is a nightmare monster




Hate is a powerful emotion
Forgiveness leads you to the north star

The questioning of "Who will cry when I die?" highlights a sense of self-reflection, questioning one's purpose and impact in the world.
