Hipsterism

from No Need to Travel by MakeUpYourMind

/

about

In this song I wanted to analyze the essence of ‘hipsters’: instead of sticking to their appearances and how they dress, I find their inner problem to be a sort of neo-nihilism. This song wants to overcome their faith in the absence of values, offering to consider every phenomenon ‘true’ in the first place.

lyrics

LYRICS:

You don’t want to try anymore
You think you know the Truth of all the truths
And so you escape from the reality that you hate
But you don’t know that you’ve created

What’s your guidance?
Nothing’s not a value that you build
You get surprised
When you discover the other’s values

YOU LACK OF AN ESSENCE
YOU PREFER NOTHING TO EVERYTHING
TELL ME WHAT’S YOUR GUIDANCE
NOTHING’S WEAK, EVERYTHING’S POWER

YOU LACK OF AN ESSENCE
YOU PREFER NOTHING TO EVERYTHING
TELL ME WHAT’S YOUR GUIDANCE

And you become an outcast of society
But that’s not gone ‘till we’re not none
Not gone, not none, you wish you were born before
I wish you were the one never born

What do you think, that people in the 70s
Were not complaining about their lives?
You’re not free from your chains, not free from your ties
You’re free to be another stereotype


YOU LACK OF AN ESSENCE
YOU PREFER NOTHING TO EVERYTHING
TELL ME WHAT’S YOUR GUIDANCE
NOTHING’S WEAK, EVERYTHING’S POWER

YOU LACK OF AN ESSENCE
YOU PREFER NOTHING TO EVERYTHING
TELL ME WHAT’S YOUR GUIDANCE

NOTHING’S WEAK, EVERYTHING’S POWER
NOTHING’S WEAK, EVERYTHING’S POWER

YOU LACK OF AN ESSENCE
YOU PREFER NOTHING TO EVERYTHING
TELL ME WHAT’S YOUR GUIDANCE
