about

The song acknowledges how this year has lifted the veil on our deficiencies: Vanity, materialism, insecurity, narcissism and hypocrisy, and how it has made these even more evident. It talks about the irony that we needed nature to teach us a lesson about our own nature.

It also pokes fun at the fact that humankind has been caught being a despicable species and how it has tried to turn that on its head to make itself look like the victim of 2020.

All in all, it points out how we are desperately trying to turn the page on this year so we can continue to be our shitty selves, instead of opting for a more mature and needed self-introspection.

lyrics

We all agreed, the best things in life are not free
What do we know? 10 months and we’re drenched to the bone
We play pretend, but we don’t like our face in the end
And needless to say, all rushing to not die alone

What do you want from me?
You took it all, now why won’t you leave?
Is it too late to believe?
To die free, or to live on your knees?

Call for a friend, he’s not in, you won’t understand
We want revenge, on ourselves for not being clean
Time to repent, all the prayers won’t rinse all the sins
Philosophy is of no use when nature runs free

What do you want from me?
You took it all, now why won’t you leave?
Is it too late to believe?
To die free, or to live on your knees?

2020 so long 20
Uninvited 2020
2020 so long 20
