Confined
circle storm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It used to be so different
When things were less confined
How could it be like it was yesterday
I thought it took more time i thought it took more time
Then what's there can't you see it
I'm not the only one oh can't you see it
It's not the same as it was yesterday
It used to be so different
When things were less confined
How could it be like it was yesterday
I thought it took more time i thought it took more time
Then what's there can't you see it
I'm not the only one oh can't you see it
CONFINED
Now those hands they don't move
These days won't go
Now those hands they don't move
These days won't go
It's not the same as it was yesterday
It used to be so different when things were less confined
How could it be like it was yesterday
I thought it took more time i thought it took more time
Can't you see it it's not the same
The song "Confined" by Circle Storm talks about the changes and challenges that have come about in the present times, compared to what it used to be in the past. The first two lines of the song, "It's not the same as it was yesterday, it used to be so different" suggest the changes that the singer has observed. They yearn to go back to the days when things were less complicated, free and unrestricted. The following lines, "when things were less confined, how could it be like it was yesterday, I thought it took more time, I thought it took more time" indicate the longing and misplaced understanding of the past, where things were, in fact, just as limited as they are now.
The repeated phrase "Then what's there can't you see it, I'm not the only one, oh, can't you see it, confined" highlights the singer's exasperation towards the changes and the limitations they experience in their present life. It seems like other people also acknowledge the same issues but no one is taking enough steps to overcome those challenges.
The final lines, "now those hands they don't move, these days won't go, it's not the same" express the feeling of stagnation that is encountered when changes are not accepted or dealt with. The song conveys that one must adapt to the changes and work towards overcoming the challenges, rather than remain confined and constrained.

It's not the same as it was yesterday
The current situation differs greatly from what it was yesterday
It used to be so different
In the past, things were vastly different from what they are currently
When things were less confined
In the past, things were less limited and more free
How could it be like it was yesterday
It's difficult to believe that the current situation was the same as yesterday's
I thought it took more time i thought it took more time
The passage of time seemed slower then than it does now
Then what's there can't you see it
The evidence is right in front of us - why can't we see it?
I'm not the only one oh can't you see it
Many others are in the same situation as me - why can't you see it too?
CONFINED
The situation feels limited and restrictive
Now those hands they don't move
Time seems to have come to a standstill
These days won't go
The days seem to drag on endlessly without progress or change
Can't you see it it's not the same
The current situation is vastly different from what it used to be

our universe has friction , without which causes all moving & spinning objects wouldn't stop moving & spinning
SCP 627 was quite possibly packed with active kinetic energy itself ; a solid orb marble brewing with centrifugal force , attached to nothing , akin to SCP 314 , a metallic prism that floats & ricochets in the air , a suspended animation that'll exterminate all humans in the line of sight
heavenly bodies , such as planets , neutron stars & galaxies exhibit such thing called " uniform circular motion " driven by invisible force that even English physicist , mathematician & astronomer Isaac Newton can't explain what makes them " tick "
some neutron stars spins very fast on it's axis ; while one distinct black hole in the whole universe spins way faster than what a centrifuge in a laboratory was capable of -- close to the speed of light
the gigantic Dyson Sphere discovered revolving around Tabby's Star rapidly -- about 4 times per second -- was actually a planet-sized alien megastructure was imitating how all planets rotate constantly around a star , the same way our planet Mercury does around our Sun , which was just 55 million kms apart

A.E is Albert Einstein & they’re referring to the Manhattan project

Seriously ???

Nice that's a good reference

@Aggression why thank you

Good thinking! Never crossed my mind. If the sphere could reach the speed of sound, it may have also been able to reach and exceed the speed of light. E=mc squared. Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared. 🤔

J.R.O. is J. Robert Oppenheimer.
BDC Concepts
Nice tie in to real world figures of the time. A.E. = Albert Einstein JRO = J.R. Oppenheimer

My only question is, did the experiment go wrong, or too right?

LMFAO. I kinda love this one, essentially calling nuclear power and weapons derivatives of this SCP.
