Laurette

Song Meaning

The lyrics paint a picture of a utopian society, or at least the aspiration towards one, where basic needs are met and a new form of social capital is established. Phrases like "Share grain, figs and means" and "Breadless, truly blessed" suggest a communal existence where abundance, or at least sufficiency, is the norm. This state is described as "True transcendence," hinting at a spiritual or philosophical elevation beyond material concerns and the anxieties that typically accompany them. The repetition of "Empathy is currency" and "Equalize the want and need" underscores the central tenet of this envisioned world: that emotional connection and equitable distribution are the new measures of wealth and well-being, leading to "The end of anxiety is nigh."
