Analysis of Something

Rasmus Berggren 2002 (Linkoping)



All these people
Talking like they know
All contradicting themselves
Life is this and that
Well, who cares
None is correct
None will ever be correct
Never take the advice of a man who say they have found meaning to life
Don't meditate because they say so
Don't go out running every day because they say so
Read not because they say so
Do it all because you crave it
You will never find a good life
There will always be this voice contradicting your life
Its a universal fact
And a life living doesn't have to be good
It has to be your life
And it is your life in the end
A life no one will ever understand
So why read all those useless books about a good life ?
They don't know shit
Just take a deep breath...
