The world is beginning to disappear
Have fun with this one, folks. It's not fully fleshed-out, but we'll have a laugh when it is. Put on your 90s music hats and let's GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
The Counting Crows release this song about... Albert Einstein? I've always adored it, but I was never sure why. https://youtu.be/hsW1rdT-K2w
*Is it better to be better than to be anything?*
What the hell does that even mean? Is it better to improve yourself or to be meaningful for who you are? Maybe?! You tell me.
I've come to make sense of a lot of the allusions to shadows against the wall being the shadows of the victims of the nuclear bomb blasts and such. But the thing I keep coming back to is this: what are they saying about Einstein's realization? His mindset?
*The world begins to disappear. The worst things come from inside (w)here(?). And all the King's men reappear for an eggman, falling off the wall. We'll never be together again. *
I was originally going to go more into detail about the Philip Glass original and other thoughts and post it to the conspiracy sub, but this is just easier for now. Kthxbye.
