Until
Zero Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Asymmetrical unions
Catatonic assumptions
Paltry insinuations
Until now
I thought life
Was so kind
Deadly associations
Elongated summations
Particle demarcations
Until now
I thought life
Was so kind
Patriarchal institutions
Embryonic intrusions
Paleolithic inclusions
Until now
I thought life
Was so kind
Because I believed in everything back then
When I believed in everything back then
And I believed in everything back then
When I believed in everything back then
Monolithic illusions
Prehistoric conventions
Binary corrections
Until now
I thought life
Was so kind
Sedentary infractions
Incendiary retractions
Corollary infusions
Until now
I thought life
Was so kind
Scripted subterfuges
Mystic godly confusions
Haphazard profusions
Until now
I thought life
Was so kind
Because I believed in everything back then
When I believed in everything back then
And I believed in everything back then
When I believed in everything back then
Emerald persuasion
Like a diamond vacation
And all those idle relations
If not now
If not then
If not now
If not then
If not now
If not then
If not now




If not then
Then when?

Overall Meaning

Zero's song "Until" appears to be a reflection on the illusions and misconceptions that people have about the world around them. The lyrics describe a series of different situations and systems, from patriarchal institutions to mystic godly confusions, that the singer once believed in and trusted. These illusions are represented as asymmetrical unions, catatonic assumptions, and other abstract concepts.


However, the repetition of the phrase "Until now, I thought life was so kind" suggests that the singer has come to a realization that these illusions are not necessarily true or beneficial. The use of terms like "particle demarcations" and "sedentary infractions" also implies a sense of disillusionment with the status quo and a desire for change.


The final lines of the song, "If not now, if not then, then when?" can be interpreted as a call to action or a reminder that we should not simply resign ourselves to accepting a flawed world. Overall, the lyrics of "Until" seem to encourage the listener to question their assumptions and seek out a deeper understanding of the complex forces at work in their world.


Overall, the song is open to interpretation and can be seen as a commentary on modern society or a personal reflection on the singer's life experiences.
