| Aesop Rock – No Regrets Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
let me start off by saying that no one besides the artist can completely interpret a songs meaning,and many of you have voiced your opinion that you feel this song is about a girl who lives her life to fullest working hard through out her entire life. However, it seems to me that this is a kind of warning because Aesop rock, in many of his lyrics, seems to say that he works hard and is somewhat of a 'tortured artist', saying things like 'must not sleep, must warn others'. In these lyrics he says that the girl '...has been the dream shes wanted to be since day one' so that could allude to her being a person with no beliefs or wisdom of life because she just focused on creating art and nothing more, and what child can grow to be a functional human without learning to dream. also, with hard work comes the necessary contradiction of enjoyment of life and seeing what it has to offer, and this is what an artist needs to create any art. this is all brought together by the fact that she dies alone with no one, not even the man she had a loveless relationship with. It looks to me that she does work hard but takes nothing out of life, has no love besides lifeless art, and she dies alone; leading me to belief that this song is a warning. |
