Fools
The Aikiu Lyrics

Drowning in polyester
Feeling overwhelmed and suffocated by artificiality and superficiality.

shouting from the ghetto blaster
Trying to assert oneself and be heard in a noisy, chaotic environment.

your voice again
The recurring frustration of being ignored or silenced despite attempting to communicate.

How come my eyes won't shut anymore
Struggling with insomnia and an inability to find peace or rest.

such a struggle it feels like war
The exhaustion of an ongoing battle or fight, both internally and externally.

Baby please don't spread
Begging for someone not to worsen the situation or make things more difficult.

this radioactive rood in my head
The toxic or destructive thoughts and emotions that are consuming one's mind.

And we must be fools
Acknowledging the foolishness of certain actions or behaviors, despite continuing to engage in them.

cause one day soon it's over
Recognizing the inevitability of change and the impermanence of life.

now I can feel December
Sensing a shift or change in the atmosphere or mood.

I hear something
Perceiving a subtle or distant warning or sign of danger.

footsteps on a volcano
The ominous and looming threat of impending disaster.

cracking and splitting
The fragility and instability of the surroundings, and the possibility of everything falling apart.

dull steps
A sense of resignation or inevitability in the face of adversity or hardship.

your machine gun hides the sun
The oppressive and overbearing nature of power and control.

Baby chill baby chill
Attempting to soothe one's own or someone else's anxieties or fears.

I wonder how it feels
Questioning the perspective of those who seem blissfully unaware or at ease.

watching the world through serene eyes
Craving a sense of peace and tranquility in the midst of chaos and turmoil.

now this is what I seek
Desiring a drastic change or transformation in order to find fulfillment or contentment.

I want to stop this film
Feeling trapped in a narrative or situation and wanting to break free from it.

I'm giving up
Surrendering to defeat or despair, despite attempts to fight or persevere.

hear the siren's sounds
The realization that danger or disaster is imminent and unavoidable.

it all became obscene
The sudden recognition of the ugliness or corruption of a situation or society.

if we can't handle this
Accepting that certain challenges or obstacles may be too difficult to overcome.

if we can't repair this
Facing the reality that some damage or harm done may be irreversible or irreparable.
