white noise
Sinisstar Lyrics

White noise
Refers to the constant barrage of meaningless, mindless entertainment and chatter that dominates the airwaves and our daily lives.

You know it's never the right choice with idiot-box talk
This line is criticizing the tendency to mindlessly consume TV shows and other media, rather than engaging meaningfully with the world.

Just slamming the shit
A reference to the way people consume media - by simply consuming as much as possible, rather than critically engaging with it.

A backlash with an alien contract
A warning about the potential harmful effects of blindly accepting all media content, which can leave us numb and disconnected from the world around us.

They're making their contacts
Refers to the way media companies and advertisers seek out and cultivate audiences to sell to.

Embrace your city
Advice to engage with and connect with the community around you, rather than becoming isolated by consuming media.

I'm not going down
A declaration of the artist's determination to resist the numbing effects of media consumption.

I'm taking over
The artist is taking charge of their life, refusing to be controlled by media or outside forces.

Turn me around
Asking for help or guidance to get back on track, to move forward in a more positive and authentic direction.

Before you chill me
Warning against allowing oneself to be numbed or made complacent by the constant stream of media.

Ratrace
Commenting on the intense competition in modern society and the frenzied pace of life, which contributes to our inability to engage meaningfully with media and the world around us.

Coming from outta the grave
Metaphor for the overwhelming power of media to distract and mindlessly entertain, which can sometimes feel like being buried alive.

Their taking over the airwaves
Media companies and their advertisers have immense power to shape and control the entertainment and messaging that reaches us through TV and other channels.

To put you in chains
Refers to the way media can limit our thinking and control us, constraining our freedom and limiting our potential.

In that case
In response to this situation

I'm backing up my shit
A declaration of the artist's decision to stop consuming media and refocus efforts on more meaningful pursuits.

I think I'm over it
The artist feels they've reached a turning point and no longer want to be controlled by media and the ratrace of modern society.

You better brace your city
Written as a warning about the dangers of media consumption and a call to action to connect with your community and the world around you.

Don't blow me away
A call for more meaningful engagement with the world, rather than the endless consumption of media.

Don't learn how to lie
Encouraging honesty and authenticity in all forms of communication, and rejecting the artificiality of modern media.

Just throw me away
A rejection of the superficiality of modern media, and a plea for something more meaningful and real.

And open my eyes
Asking for help or guidance to see the world with more clarity and purpose.

Just show me the way
A call for help in finding a meaningful path forward in life, free from the constraints of media or the pressures of modern society.
