"Island Of Anger" It’s a beautiful world Filled with stupid people Beating each other’s brains out Like the cavemen did But I’m stuck right here Wondering why I can’t do Like the brave men did Oh don’t I know This ain’t no way to live When everything I see and hear Makes me mad And there’s no silver lining The stuff that doesn’t get me angry Makes me sad Chorus 1: Hard to believe I’m not a kid Hard to believe the things I did Hard to believe the ways I hid my love Wondering now why I’m not free Wondering how I came to be An island of anger in a sea of love And love rules This much I understand But all the ones who live for peace die for it Still somehow that message comes And every day I struggle to decipher it Chorus 1: Hard to believe I’m not a kid Hard to believe the things I did Hard to believe the ways I hid my love Wondering now why I’m not free Wondering how I came to be An island of anger in a sea of love Refrain: Younger by half I was quick to laugh Hopeful and alive to what might come Where’s my spark Skies so dark All I seem to hear is a distant drum Guitar Solo: Chorus 1: Hard to believe I’m not a kid Hard to believe the things I did Hard to believe the ways I hid my love Wondering now why I’m not free Wondering how I came to be An island of anger in a sea of love Chorus 2: Hard to believe the time’s so short Hard to believe I’m still in port Dying to set a different sort of course Wondering now how I’ll get free And how to become a refugee From an island of anger In a sea of love Love

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson explore le désespoir et la frustration d'une âme qui se sent piégée dans un monde qui l'indigne. L'artiste se demande pourquoi il est en proie à la colère et dépeint un contraste entre une vie pleine d'amour et sa propre solitude dans cette colère. Il réfléchit sur son passé, sur ses choix et sur le fait qu'il n'est plus un enfant naïf, mais qu'il aspire néanmoins à la liberté et à la paix. Malgré le contexte tumultueux du monde, un message d'amour et d'espoir persiste, illustrant ce combat intérieur entre colère et désir d'harmonie.
