Conventional Wisdom Lyrics
'Cause you'd never expect it to be that
Dangerous disguises
That you never expect to see
Nothing's gonna change that
Some things you can't explain
Like why we're all embracing conventional wisdom in a world that's just so unconventional
But you never expected to see that
That's what makes that sound
That you never expect to hear
Something's gotta change that
Some things you can't explain
Like why we're all embracing conventional wisdom in a world thats just so unconventional
But you know that they never can see that
That's what makes them strong
That they know that we'll never see
Can't believe more people haven't written about this song. Like Goin against your mind, I think this song's about opening up your mind. Not embracing conventional wisdom and how some people will never be able to see past their own beliefs. What makes them strong is that sometimes you just can't help but try to get through to them. Is it any mistake that BTS are so psychedelic in their music and psychedelic drugs are known to open your mind.
yea this song kicks so much ass, i love the lines
"they dont know theyre wrong but you know that they never can see that thats what makes them strong that they know that we'll never see "
beauty....
built to spill rocks i gotta get this new album
I think there's an error in this song lyrics. Fourth stanza, second line, I think might be "Somethings gotta change that," and not "wanna change that." Confirmation?
damn, i was just about to add these. this is by far my favorite track off of you in reverse. love the song.
this album isn't easily digestible but this track kept me interested until the rest of it made sense. love it.
Moses19, so true. There always seems to be a key song that unlocks the rest of a difficult album, and this is it. So cool that BTS can still create a song this explosive after a decade of doing their thing. Great statement on our current state of polical punch-drunkenness too.
Does anyone else's version of this song say "who is Mike Jones." in it?
"jbo" haha yeah my buddy has this song that says "who is mike jones" in it like three times i thought it was saying who is my town but after reading your comment totally agree..
And as far as the song goes i think its pretty much all talking about how we have all been fooled into believing this bull shit because no one has a "real" answer to how we were started and not any one person can ever tell the whole world they are wrong cause no one will believe you
