Jestem
TRUCHŁO STRZYGI Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wredny i cuchnący
Dzień ten czuje jakby przez szybę
Powietrze podawane rurką
Myśli przecedzone
Spalane stosy w lekkim upojeniu
Percepcja zaburzona
Zlepek słów
Bełkot słyszę
Niebieska trucizna
Być człowiekiem
Jak tu kurwa być człowiekiem
Szanuj bliźniego
Lecz ja inny niż on
Ma dwie ręce troje oczu
Przecie on inny niż ja
I gdy ja patrzę na nich
Wstręt mnie dotyka
Lecz we mnie tkwi coś innego
Innego niż ty
Żyje gniję i umieram
Jestem
Lecz ciebie nie ma
Żyje gnije umieram
Nie ma cie
Nie ma jej
Śmierć dotknie nas
These lyrics come from the song "Jestem" by Truchło Strzygi. The song explores the singer's perspective on the world and their struggle to navigate their own identity among societal expectations and the perceived differences with others.
In the first paragraph, the lyrics depict a harsh and foul world that feels distant to the singer. They describe feeling disconnected from reality, as if they are observing it through a window or from a distance. The air is metaphorically described as being delivered through a tube, suggesting a sense of artificiality or detachment.
The second paragraph delves into a state of intoxication or altered perception, with burning piles and distorted perception. The singer's thoughts become fragmented and jumbled, forming a nonsensical babble. The mention of "blue poison" suggests a feeling of toxic or overwhelming emotions.
The third paragraph highlights the singer's struggle to fit into society and be considered a "human being." They express the conflict between being told to respect others while feeling fundamentally different from them. The singer notices physical differences, such as having two hands and three eyes, and compares themselves to others, feeling a sense of disgust or aversion towards them. However, they also acknowledge that there is something within themselves that is different from the norm.
The final paragraph introduces themes of decay, death, and the absence of someone significant. The singer expresses their own existence, emphasizing that they are alive, but simultaneously feel a sense of decay and impending death. The repetition of the phrase "Nie ma cie" (there is no you) and "Nie ma jej" (there is no her) suggests a feeling of emptiness or loss, as if someone important is absent. The mention of death touching alludes to mortality and the inevitable end shared by everyone.
Overall, these lyrics depict a complex and introspective exploration of the singer's perception of the world and their struggle to find their place within it. It delves into themes of identity, alienation, and existential contemplation.
