Cycling Trivialities Lyrics
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
Cycling trivialities
About
“So how’s it gonna be
When it all comes down you’re cycling trivialities”
The song is about the moment we catch ourselves living a shallow life, stuck in our everyday’s futilities, and realize that we have no wisdom whatsoever to deal with the deeper questions of life.
“All this time you were chasing dreams
Without knowing what you wanted them to mean
…
Who cares in a hundred years from now
All the 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”
We’re all encouraged to “chase our dreams” but we do it in an corrupted society, with weak values, that will worth nothing in a hundred years. It’s time to start living the present like if it was not trivial, but worth it, because everyday is an eternal cycle, and we’re now stuck in one in which triviality prevails.
