Good Way Of Life
Tingsek Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are truly just all that you do
You never even think of how it is or how it goes
Loving every second of the fact that you just know
You have a good way of life
You don't listen to anything they say
Sharing everything with everybody elseSpreading so much love around from deep within yourself
Will you drop your weapons and just hurry off somewhere?
I need to be someone for a while other than this fool you made me
I get to concentrate on things I should have done
I think of everything we build on greed and pretend perceptions
You have a good way of life
You are truly just all that you do
You never even think of how it is or how it goes
Loving every second of the fact that you just know
You have a good way of life
You don't listen to anything they say
Sharing everything with everybody else
Spreading so much love around from deep within yourself
Would you make my day and just let yourself away?
Come and bring love anytime but leave the past 20 years behind
We need to look forward and listen to ourselves
And not playing the melody obviously made for someone else
You have a good way of life
You are truly just all that you do
You never even think of why it is or how it goes
Loving every second of the fact that you just know
You have a good way of life
You don't listen to anything they say
Sharing everything with everybody else
Spreading so much love around from deep within yourself
Before it used to be so easy to control
But now I just wait for something to fade some more
The no meaning whatsoever will be followed up though
I might just turn it in to something to hold me up
In "Good Way of Life," Swedish musician Tingsek sings about the importance of living life on one's own terms and finding happiness in the present. He compliments someone who has a "good way of life," meaning they are content with themselves and their actions. They don't pay much attention to societal expectations or criticism, instead choosing to share love and positivity with others from their own inner wellspring. Tingsek implores the person to keep doing what they're doing, and to not be weighed down by past failures or regrets.
However, in the second verse, Tingsek reveals his own struggles to maintain this positive attitude. He feels like someone else's "fool," and wants to escape and be someone else for a bit. He acknowledges that it's hard to let go of the past, and that the world can be cruel and selfish. But ultimately, he returns to praising the person with the "good way of life" for their ability to find joy in the present moment regardless.
This song encourages listeners to prioritize their own happiness over external pressures, and to spread kindness and compassion to others. It also acknowledges that maintaining this attitude is not always easy, but that it's worth striving for.
