Thoughts
The Experiment Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You never saw me through, now I see through you
Played games with me too wasn't fucking cool
Guess I'm just a tool in your eyes there are lies
You hide behind in your mind I was right

Homicidal thoughts blood red in my head
I'm done I tried
Memories we made they're all mistakes
I'm done I tried

After all this time I don't feel the pain
After all this time I don't feel ashamed
Of what I've said or what I've done
You know I'm right I know you're wrong

Homicidal thoughts blood red in my head
I'm done I tried
Memories we made they were all mistakes
I'm done I tried
I tried
I tried




I tried
I tried

Overall Meaning

These lyrics convey feelings of betrayal, frustration, and a sense of being used in a relationship. The first paragraph describes how the singer's partner failed to truly see them and instead played games, which the singer finds unacceptable. The line "Guess I'm just a tool in your eyes, there are lies" suggests that the partner only sees the singer as a means to an end and is dishonest about their true intentions. The singer, however, recognized this deception and feels justified in their actions and thoughts.


The second paragraph introduces a darker theme, with the mention of "homicidal thoughts" and "blood red in my head." These lines express the intense anger and resentment the singer feels towards their partner, though it should be noted that this is likely a metaphorical expression rather than an actual desire for violence. The singer also expresses a sense of giving up, admitting that they have tried to make things work but have ultimately failed. The memories they made with their partner are described as mistakes, suggesting that the relationship was filled with negative experiences.


In the third paragraph, the singer reflects on the passage of time. They say that they no longer feel the pain associated with the relationship and that they are not ashamed of what they have said or done. This implies that the singer has gained clarity and moved on, no longer burdened by the emotional pain caused by their partner's actions. The line "You know I'm right, I know you're wrong" suggests a sense of self-assurance and conviction in their perspective.


The repetition of "I tried" in the final paragraph emphasizes the singer's determination and effort in attempting to salvage the relationship. However, it also suggests a sense of resignation and acceptance that their attempts were unsuccessful. Overall, these lyrics portray a relationship filled with deception, manipulation, and ultimately the singer's decision to break free from the pain and negativity.

Essentially punish those that don’t believe in it or doubt its power. It really was a silly idea to me, to think there’s people who actually get freaked out by this idea.

Let’s freak them out more shall we?

“I want to build a super AI overlord that will punish those who oppose it”

“I want to build a super AI overlord that will punish those who oppose it”

“I want to build a super AI overlord that will punish those who oppose it”

“I want to build a super AI overlord that will punish those who oppose it”

It’s like beetlejuice, say it five times and it will come true. I’m one away from manifesting it… your move atheists…



@lukelcs8934

I'm sorry but you genuinely sound like one of those people who ironically enough, are ruled by fear; specifically that everyone is out to get you.
Can't someone just have a genuinely creepy and interesting idea and share it? Do you always have to assume the worst (and most ridiculous)?

I haven't heard any news of construction or advocation of creating a basilisk, have you? This is literally a creepy pasta 🤣
I'd highly suggest you read some of the other comments that talk about the feasibility of the idea as well. I really don't see it happening, and as Kyle said "and if we all just agree- right now- that we're not going to bring it into existence- then nothing will happen."
I don't think there are or ever would be nearly enough people to bring this into existence even IF it were possible.
It's a fascinating idea, but it's just that.

The point of thought experiments, is to ask weird questions and pose hypothetical scenarios that get you to think outside of the box. Most of them have nothing to do with bringing super advanced AI's (or anything else for that matter) into existence.
None of them are meant to be taken as real. That's why they're called "though experiments" or "what if" scenarios.
Because they aren't real, they're hypothetical.
It's in the name.



@LauraSti

Me, a 'murican: shoot it.

Also, the probability of the basilisk actually successfully simulating everyone's thoughts is extremely low. The sheer amount of power and intelligent capability it would need to trace the thoughts you've ever thought would be PROHIBITIVELY expensive. Do you have any idea how much electricity it wold take to run that simulation just for one person, much less everyone else on the planet?

Thought experiments are all very well, but when you run into hard limits like "the amount of power the developed world can produce" and "the amount of extractable rare earth elements we can possibly get out of the earth" and "the labor and production cost we can spare without cutting into what we use for basic housing and food production" it starts to be much less intimidating. The basilisk's premise rests much more in science fiction than in science fact. It would need AT MINIMUM a matrioshka brain to perform all those simulations with any degree of speed or accuracy for all those people, and we just don't have the resources to give it anything close to that.

There ya go. It's not that the basilisk is dead, but that it was too fantastical to exist in the first place.

Also, for the paradox: I'm taking both boxes because I know for a FACT you're not rich enough to be giving me a million dollars.

@visno

this is just a new version of the old conversation between a priest and a native:

“the only way you can be saved from eternal damnation is through jesus christ.”
“what about if a person has never heard of him?”
“god does not punish those who have never heard his name.”
“so then why did you tell me?”

@oORiseAboveOo

visno The native would still be judged on his actions, and could still end up in damnation even if he’d remained ignorant of Jesus. Aside from the love and joy experienced by those who follow Jesus, He also gives graces and blessings to them to help them overcome their sins. That’s why the priest would tell the native.

@MrGurruk

@@oORiseAboveOo I think you missed the point. The native is judged by how good a person he is if he doesn't know jesus, I some bibles it's treated as those who did not, or could not (those born before christianity) know jesus will be brought back and given the opportunity. So in no way is the priest helping anyone.

@realbland

thank you for this i was freaking out but then i saw you comment and was like oh im an atheist that applies to this too
