    Those opening lyrics are my favorite part of this song. "Well I met an old man dying on a train. No more destination, no more pain. He said one thing before I graduate. 'Never late your fear decide your fate!'"

    Awolnation actually is a pretty good teacher. I've learned 3 things from this song :
    1. No need to worry, cause everybody will die.
    2. Everyone loves you more than you know.
    3. Never let your fear to decide your fate.
    These 3 things changed my life!

    The song is about Never giving up. Don't let the people you look up and the people who will come after you decide how good you are. You are good enough. Kill your heroes means don't have heroes be your own hero. Don't let fear rule your life do what you love and know that there are people who will always love you no matter how many times you fail or think about giving up. Just keep going cause the only thing that's stopping you is yourself. You have your whole life to accomplish the things you want as long as you don't hold yourself up in a metaphorical room. Live your life , be happy and don't give up. People love you more than you know.

      there can be more than yourself blocking you. For example, a police roadblock, financial crisis, debt sealing, your boss standing in your doorway, logistical problems with getting to the right college... etc. Sure it's all great to talk about chasing your dreams, but it's not all roses and sunshine.

    This song helped me through some tough times, in 2012 I moved schools and didn't have any friends I stayed home all day other than school. During the summer I never left the house, this got me depressed just watching T.V all day everyday my life felt dull I got worse and worse my vision seemed off like my depression was making everything feel fake. I found this song on the front page of reddit once o listens to it I felt normal and happy again, I got a girlfriend and was happy again. Now I'm in highschool and I was trying to figure out the same to this song, I'm glad my 13yr old self was smart enough to add this song to my favorites list. I will never forget this song

    All these years later and this song still resonates with me in a way I have a hard time explaining. My sister in law once asked why I liked a song with such depressing lyrics. At the time I didn't have a good answer but I think the wisdom of years since have clarified some things for me and now I have a fairly simple answer.
    If you separate the song lyrics from the music they feel almost entirely unrelated. The music itself is very upbeat and optimistic sounding, while the lyrics describe the inevitability of death. When you combine the two parts you are given a song that is optimistic in the face of life's most depressing aspects. It becomes an anthem about overcoming the fear of life itself. "Kill your heroes" is a metaphor for taking back control of your life. So instead of being a bystander, you can be your own hero! It really is the PB&J of songs. Just the right amount of sweet and salty.

    This song has a meaning behind it that I find pretty interesting.
    You see, the main point of the song (in my opinion) is about not trying to be like the person next to you or to be a copy of a person that you find to be more of what you are. People would call it inspiration, but when you agnore things about yourself that makes it seem that's getting in the way, and when you come close to what the person that you want to be is, you will be a plain mess of mixed emotions that makes you nothing like what you want to become, and wish you would've followed of what you good at. Even if it means going awol.
    And when he says "we love you more then you know", it means that no matter what you become in life, people around you will always love you for who you are.

    I keep wondering about one thing.. "Never let your fear decide your fate." What if i dont know if i am scared? Maybe i am? Maybe i am not? There are times when i have to decide many things and i feel nothing, and there are times when i fear the outcome, but i dont see them as bad things either.. Yet i dont know, maybe they are bad, yet mayeb they are not? Sometimes i cant tell if i am curious or i am afraid..
    So i sometimes just go with the flow, and later on think did i decide my fate with fear..?
    I DONT KNOW :( ?
    Anyone else ever felt like this? how do you decide if you might be scared but you might be curious of the outcome instead, but it's hard to tell the difference..

    • @randycabbage7949

    • @TheiLame
      @TheiLame 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Scupperr x Yeah, but it can also be interpreted as : dont make the choice because you are afraid to do something else instead. I think risks are taken with every option you do or decide not to do.

      ***** What you just described perfectly illustrates what Buddhists call attachment, or what Alan Watts might call a hang-up. You're being wishy-washy; wobbly. Your brain is so caught up in analyzing the situation that you are paralyzed with indecision. This is a state of mind that many people go through. The best way through it is to allow yourself to be indecisive, to wobble, and to make a decision when it feels natural to do so. If you try to force yourself to be decisive, you will likely only prolong the uncertain state. As you inspect yourself and notice this wobbly state more, you can learn to muddle through it more easily, until a time comes when you reach a state of awareness that effectively prevents indecisiveness. Buddhists might call this a moment of enlightenment, or satori. Meditation and self inspection are great ways to help strengthen your self awareness.

      Nice reply, thank you ! Its so weird i always end up thinking something similar that buddhists also agree / notice on.. (if that's the right way to say it, sorry if that was rude in any way). I should look up buddhism more, i think, because of the similar viewpoints and advice, i dont know where to start however, since i'm not a very knowledgeable about religions thedrew4you
