The theme is about staying alive. Getting a job, finding a mate, having a place to live, finding a creative outlet. Life is a war of attrition.  You have to stay active on all fronts. It’s one thing after another.  I’ve tried to control a chaotic universe. And it’s a losing battle. But I  can’t let go. I’ve tried, but I can’t.
