"Forgiving who you are, for what you stand to gain." lyrics like this is key in understanding what the song is about; potentially betraying your own will and integrity and doing bad things or making mistakes (likely to gain something) and then living with your mistake and bottling up the dark deeds you have done. No matter what you do that dreadful feeling won't go away, your own little dark age.

[@ericcartmann]

​@@CallmeBotakaOrc Colonial America was a golden age though. Decolonization is the dark age as the power of individual Americans is collapsing. No only on the world stage but even in their own country via the left stoking racialized/gender divisions, the left destroying organized religions, the left destroying academia, the left destroying pop culture, the left literally burning their own communities. A civilizational dark age is when everyone in a collective consciousness falls into a "Little Dark Age" all at the same time, this induces more little dark ages in everyone as the decline becomes more apparent. A civilizational golden age is when everyone in a collective consciousness turns into a bloomer and become present in the moment with a high expectations for the future. A Gold/Dark age has nothing to do with war/death/slavery or destruction. It is the vibe of the universe manifested by the average person in a society. Do they care for the society? Do they want to better the society? Do they care about their fellow man? Can you trust your neighbor? With mass unfettered immigration, the worship of blacks, the degradation of women, worship of material goods, destruction of divinity, its hard for the modern man to be bloomer. And this is a society problem because you need strong white men to have proper civilization.

Letra: Breathing in the dark, lying on its side … The ruins of the day painted with a scar And the more I straighten out, the less it wants to try … The feelings start to rot, one wink at a time … Oh-oh, forgiving who you are, for what you stand to gain Just know that if you hide, it doesn't go away When you get out of bed, don't end up stranded Horrified with each stone on the stage, my little dark age … Picking through the cards, knowing what's nearby … The carvings on the face say they find it hard … And the engine's failed again, all limits of disguise … The humor's not the same, coming from denial … Oh-oh, I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide, it doesn't go away If you get out of bed and find me standing all alone Open-eyed, burn the page, my little dark age … I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange You know that if it hides, it doesn't go away If I get out of bed, you'll see me standing all alone Horrified on the stage, my little dark age … Giddy with delight, seeing what's to come … The image of the dead, dead ends in my mind … Policemen swear to God, love seeping from their guns I know my friends and I would probably turn and run If you get out of bed, come find us heading for the bridge Bring a stone, all the rage, my little dark age … I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide, it doesn't go away If you get out of bed and find me standing all alone Open-eyed, burn the page, my little dark age … All alone, open-eyed, burn the page, my little dark age

Buen trabajo 🫡

[@georgevee3697]

@@hell1942 imho, based on what’s going on with Hollywood collapsing, i think it means the artists are aware of the dark underworld of the rich and powerful. (Epstein ,P.Diddler, jimmy saville and the 🇬🇧 royals, peter nygard,Oprah, Dan Schneider,jay z and Beyoncé types ) and their secrets, but their hands are tied because the producers behind the camera suspect something or know about their grievances… Pay attention again and look at it more like a cryptic,criminal confession(because if it’s true, then they themselves are accessories)than just a hip song. It’s written all over the lyrics. Listen to the song THEN watch the video.
