System Of A Down / Aerials lyrics

EXPLAINS WHOLE SONG (THE WAY I SEE IT)
system of a down is one of my favourite bands and this song is really awesome...i never get tired of it.

I think this song is about how people become superficial and shallow and just want everything to work out in their favour, and if they just were more open minded and less shallow, they would be more happy...

"Life is a waterfall,
we're one in the river,
and one again after the fall."
life is fast paced and is gonna hit us hard (like a waterfall)
we should still be together after the difficult part pass (after the fall)

'Swimming through the void -going throuth life
we hear the word,-we learn about superficial things "the dream"
we lose ourselves,-we become shallow,lose our sincerity and personality
but we find it all...'-but we achieve "the dream"

Cause we are the ones that want to play,-we wanna live life
always want to go,-always wanna be the ones who have the fun
but you never want to stay.-but never wanna stay and do the work

And we are the ones that want to choose-we wanna have the first choice
always want to play,-wanna have a part of the action
but you never want to lose.-but always in our favour and without the consequinces

Aerials, in the sky,-we should pay attention to the things around us
when you lose small mind,-when be open up our minds
you free your life.-we become free and understand life better

Life is a waterfall,-(explained before)
we drink from the river,-we take from others
then we turn around and put up our walls.-but when they want from us, we don't wanna give back

Swimming through the void,
we hear the word,
we lose ourselves,
but we find it all...

Cause we are the ones that want to play,
always want to go,
but you never want to stay.

And we are the ones that want to choose,
always want to play,
but you never want to lose,

Aerials, in the sky,
when you lose small mind,
you free your life.

Aerials, so up high,
when you free your eyes,
eternal prize.

Aerials, in the sky,
when you lose small mind,
you free your life.

Aerials,so up high,
when you free your eyes,-when we open up our eyes
eternal prize- we understand life and get the "prize"

I hope this helped you to understand the song better.
