    Jose on the meaning "I knew I wanted to sing about when you get caught in trivialities and you can’t see past your own horizon, and basically how you can make things seem bigger and more difficult than they really are. Almost sentimental, the lyrics …I mean its more of an observation, and also not…Almost like complaining about yourself and how you can get stuck in small things, and how you want to change that."

  • @mileswilliams4807
    @mileswilliams4807 5 лет назад +20

    That build up right before 3:05 that leads into the heavy part gives me freaking chills! Sounds so damn heavy just for a dude playing guitar and tapping his foot. He always has a driving rythem is his songs. I play bass and that's huge for me. He's incredible.

    A profound and hauntingly beautiful song about the meaninglessness of life. Puts things into perspective for me...
    "Who cares in a hundred years from now,
    Who'll remember all the players,
    Who'll remember all the clowns....
    So what does this really mean,
    When it all comes down, cycling trivialities..."

    Reading the comment and more than few people saying that it’s a sad song.. it doesn’t feel sad to me, it feels to me like an acceptance of the cyclic nature and the patterns we get stuck in and then a fresh look, “so what’s it gonna be?”. I get there are a twinges of sadness in the lyrics, but it doesn’t feel depressing or hopeless to me.

    Too blind to know your best
    Hurrying through the forks without regrets
    Different now, every step feels like a mile
    All the lights seem to flash and pass you by
    So how?s it gonna be
    When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
    But don't know which way to turn
    Every trifle becoming big concerns
    All this time you were chasing dreams
    Without knowing what you wanted them to mean
    So how's it gonna be
    When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
    So how's it gonna be
    When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
    Who cares in a hundred years from now
    All your small steps, all your shitty clouds
    Who cares in a hundred years from now
    Who'll remember all the players
    Who'll remember all the clowns
    So how's it gonna be
    When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
    So what does this really mean
    When it all comes down, cycling trivialities
    Cycling trivialities
    Cycling trivialities
    Cycling trivialities
    Cycling trivialities
    Cycling trivialities

      @joeblow6377 6 лет назад

      I can play a basic version now, but am far from how he plays it..
      Drop D with your G up to an A.
      The finger picking is pretty easy for the first main parts, but that last bit is tricky. Use guitar tab app it has it correct.
      You can get a basic version going with that, but it’ll take effort and work to get all the parts how he does
