Rules Of Life
Squealer Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

A strange voice calls from afar:
"Can I chase away my fears?"
Life is out of our hands in spite of our plans

Separation is our fate but it will be my gate
To meet again is our hope, please tell me...

[Chorus 2x]

How will I see what the future keeps for me?
Oh I've never seen the sun but I feel the rules of life

The more you will own
The more you have to leave
Hope my wish will find your heart
Doesn't matter where you are

Separation is our fate but it will be my gate
To meet again is our hope, please tell me...

[Chorus 2x]

How will I see what the future keeps for me?
Oh I've never seen the sun but I feel the rules of life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Squealer's song "Rules of Life" seems to convey a sense of uncertainty and fear towards the future, as well as a yearning for connection and hope. The first two lines introduce a mysterious voice asking a question about overcoming fear, perhaps searching for guidance or reassurance. The following lines suggest a sense of powerlessness in life, implying that no matter how much we plan or try to control our fate, ultimately life is out of our hands.

The chorus of the song reinforces this idea of uncertainty, asking how one can possibly know what the future holds. Despite this fear of the unknown, the singer seems to draw comfort from feeling the "rules of life," suggesting that there are certain universal truths or principles that guide us, even if we can't always see them. The lyrics then turn towards the theme of separation and the pain it brings, but with a glimmer of hope that they will meet again.

Overall, "Rules of Life" touches upon universal themes of fear, uncertainty, and hope, with lyrics that capture the complexity of the human experience.
