Where Are You At Right Now

Czternasty...

Świat jest straszny,
straszni są ludzie.
Mordują, biją, gwałcą —
co zrobić,
by nastał porządek?
Co robić,
by spokój powrócił na ziemię,
by można było
normalnie żyć,
bez strachu,
bez cierpienia?

Jak ułagodzić zwierzęta
w ludziach?
Nie wiem.

Człowieku, opamiętaj się!
Zobacz, co czynisz.
Spójrz na siebie,
na innych,
daj spokój światu.
Żyj jak człowiek,
nie jak bies.

Jeśli mnie słyszysz,
spójrz, co robisz,
zastanów się.
To donikąd nie prowadzi,
tylko do śmierci.
I po co ci to?
Chcesz umrzeć,
chcesz innych pociągnąć w dół?

Opanuj się.
Spróbuj przeżyć normalnie,
jak zwykły człowiek.

14. Świat jest straszny.

Out Everywhere!

“Awkward” is a single that evokes the sense of social anxiety that largely characterized lead singer and guitarist Troy Ritchie’s experience in high school. Primarily about a girl whom Ritchie, admittedly, doesn’t know very well but has nonetheless placed on a pedestal, the lyrics will be relatable to anyone who recalls adolescence as a time of petty drama or isolation. While derived from real-life experiences, the girl in “Awkward” symbolizes a phase in Ritchie’s development as a person, rather than representing any one person or relationship. Ritchie seamlessly weaves hyperbole with stark realism to demonstrate how the smallest blunder was cause for enormous embarrassment.

The track reaches its climax with a watershed moment that sees Ritchie come to the epiphany that adhering to social pressures or overly concerning oneself with the opinions of other is not only exhausting, but also a counterproductive waste of time and energy. In Ritchie’s words, “I hope listeners take the song as an invitation to liberate themselves from the shackles of self-consciousness and the unhealthy focus our society puts on the individual to be popular or likeable.” In “Awkward,” Ritchie exposes a vulnerable side of himself that fans may not have known existed.
