Don't get any big ideas about having a wonderful happy life because it's not gonna happen You try to make yourself better than what you are (I believe "painting yourself white" is pointing at us trying to add some meaning to our corny lives just like what Albert Camus says in one of his books"The Fall" : "Do you want a good clean life? Like everybody else?" You say yes, of course. How can one say no? "O.K. You'll be cleaned up. Here's a job, a family, and organized leisure activities." And the little teeth attack the flesh, right down to the bone. But I am unjust. I shouldn't say their organization. It is ours, after all: it's a question of which will clean up the other.”) So you try to have a good clean life full of sounds of happiness and laughter (which by the way prevents you from hearing other sounds) and with all of this,your life is still gonna be incomplete and null in it's own way Now that you've found that happiness by living a clean life,you realize that you haven't found anything Now that you feel true happiness,you realize you don't You've gone too far in understanding things which is not acceptable So don't get any big ideas because they're not gonna happen And once you do get big ideas and you realize you can't reach them,your life will turn into hell and all of that is because your dirty mind has realized the truth By the way,the name of the song is NUDE and i think it's trying to tell us that after all,we have got nothing and we're completely nude. |
