This is all imagination. Queens and Pawns dancing in the war of the mind.
This song is about society's lack of meaning. Surely, we give it meaning with our beliefs but it is all an illusion. There are queens, kings and pawns. Yes, there are other pieces on a chessboard that have some power. We call them the middle class, but certainly they are the most delusional as they live in their perceived comfort while going to jobs, they hate to buy things they don't need.
It is about economics, politics and religion, which are all the same illusion.
Queens and Pawns
From dusk till dawn
From queens to pawns
Now psychedelic
To sooth lost nerves
From here to there
I found this fear
As journeys cry for my demise
Yellow brick roads with talking toads
That smile without reason
As birds fly by and say goodbye
To the queens and pawns
As kings stand guard
At doors death
Protecting the breath not yet born
I felt you go
It wasn't slow
As words began to bleed
And called my name
Within the sane
And laughter filled these empty halls
Yellow brick roads with talking toads
That smile without reason
As birds fly by and say goodbye
To queens and pawns
As kings stand guard
At doors of death
Protecting breath not yet born
Nothing means anything until you thing until you think it does
Nothing means anything until you thing until you think it does
Nothing means anything until you thing until you think it does
It does not mean anything
