It was just so much fun to upload songs again so I made another one right after! :D Sand and deserts has always been my favorite metaphor for nihilism, and probably not without cause. I am nihilist, and have been for a long while, so meaning has always been a difficult question for me. Ultimately I will always come to the conclusion that anything that has been done and anything that will be done does, in the grander scheme of things, not matter at all, except perhaps for the ones perceiving the things being done - that is, us, or the singular person. So if nothing has any meaning outside of us - that is, the universe will come to an end in one way or another, perhaps even time will cease to exist, or well, have existed; and also not, since past wouldn't exist - what are you to do? If any happy thought are a happy thought because you believe it to be so, but not because it is, in any way, a lasting or "true" happy thought, doesn't the edge, or the feeling of happiness, fade a bit? Not perhaps at all, but just enough to feel like it is at least a bit of a lie? Well, for me it does, anyway - but it also comes with the realization that any happy thought is worth the entire universe, for what is a purposeless existence if it is filled with nothing but badness and anger and sadness? It's a heck a lot worse, and it's also pretty boring. Make others happy.
