Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ja ska aldri bli en livskamrat.
Men jag står här kvar, är ju ållmän mark,
musiken här låter mäktig å stark.
Alla andra ger upp å går hem ti sig,
å vakten fingrar på sin pepparsprej.
Å allt e så utspätt å gammal e äldst,
de fanns ju en tid för nästan vem som helst.
Va gör nån, va gör man?
När prästen just ska viga?
Va får man, va får man?
Man får så lov att tiga.
Hadd ingen aning om att det blev dom två,
allt måst ha skett bakom en dimridå.
No ja e äldre nu, ja kan väl ta e me ro,
i ett hus i Gerby kan di sitt o glo.
Men när man går som en vålnad i sitt eget kvarter,
när Annie ett tu tre int bor här nå mer.
När stipendiepengarna har flugi sin kos,
när ens fössta samling reas ut på Gros.
Va gör man, va gör man?
Man kastar sig i en driva.
Vad får man, vad får man?
Antidepressiva.
I en driva.
Antidepressiva.
The lyrics to "Prisma" by Vasas flora och fauna depict a sense of detachment and disillusionment towards society. The singer indicates riding a wave of hatred, rejecting the idea of becoming anyone's life partner, and highlighting their position as a common ground. The only thing that remains significant is the powerful and strong music around them. Despite this, everyone else gives up and goes home while the security guards prepare their pepper spray. The singer highlights that everything is diluted, and the old is continually considered "best," even if it is not always correct.
The middle part of the song explores the behaviour of individuals during a priest's marriage ceremony. The singer wonders what they should do in this situation, but they only seem to have the option of remaining silent. The second stanza then talks about the singer's discovery that two people ended up together, and everything must have happened behind a smoke screen. They realize they're getting older and decide to take it easy by living in a house in Gerby and watching others in their neighbourhood like ghosts. The singer also contemplates their struggles with financial difficulties and how the first set of items they collected is now being sold at reduced prices, alluding to facing economic hardship.
Overall, the lyrics highlight the difficulties of fitting into society when one feels alienated and a lack of connection to the people or events around them. They reveal the consequences of societal pressure and the struggles of hoping for a better future.
