Duality Of Broken People Properly Presented

Maybe you noticed.  In movies and books and even life the simple truth is self-evident.  When a man does a terrible thing, he does not go around advertising it, at least most do not.  Most people whom have wronged others always claim they did not, or even go a step further in defending themselves by claiming they were actually helpful to society and all around themselves.  This is an additional shield.  The first barrier is proving they were not helpful.  The second shield is that they did no wrong.  And once these two shields are gone then you still have to deal with the actual armour of proving that they in fact wronged a person.  This is why the guilty or those whom have seriously harmed or injured or even stolen from another look for examples of kindred spirits around themselves and through interaction as friends, lovers, or business partners learn how they behave and then how to mimic their pretenses of innocence.  If an innocent buddy of mine hugs the bartender so, too, should I.  If the innocent woman sits in church on Sundays, then an adulteress should also sit in church on Sundays, right?  By mirroring the innocent behaviours of those around us, we, too, the guilty, may seem more innocent than the heavens themselves.  This is what the song Tears From The Moon by Conjure One is about in my view.  First I will explain the innocent aspect, then the other side of that filthy coin.  Finally I will explain why the song is actually about the duality of the broken person and how both sets of interpretations must be seen as one in order to grasp the simple explanation of what the song is all about.  Let’s begin!

A Starving Musician's Death March

What is the point of writing music?  I ask myself this lately but when I first began I never did.  In fact, there was no actual point.  Maybe in some far fetched way I wanted fame, fortune, sex, and power.  Maybe I wanted millions of dollars and fans, and respect from world leaders to bring about world peace.  Perhaps I wanted to do illegal things that only those in the power circles can truly get away with - such as cops whom aren't even celebrities but still have similar deniability.  When it really came down to it, I was just another sad loser, disabled since birth, with no friends, whom simply desired something to do with the same sixteen hours of awake hours that the rest of the cool world had.  As Schwarzenneger said, and so do many, we all have the same 24 hours, don't we?
