World at odds (WAO)

"I see odds,coz i rebel, i see evens, coz i surrender" ..

We love alternatives. We love alternative meanings to words.
The above line which is a sort of extended tagline to "world at odds" could have various explanations - but all i would do is give my interpretation of a benign kind.

Firstly, this can be one of the best lines in a cultish song. You don't need a different pair of eyes to see odd in all the evenities of the world. You just need to see things differently. You are taught to "have a perspective". whatever happened to your perspective? Voice your opinion and you would be a rebel. Voice your choice and you would automatically find an alternative solution.Rebel doesn't have a negative tone to itself, always. Its your mind that makes the notion negative. What's right for me , could be wrong for you, and vice versa.

and its true that taking the easy path and surrendering to pre-conceived ideas always leads to a non-bumpy road. But where is the fun in that? where is the adventure?

do the odd not because you want to do it or because you have the choice to do it, but do it because it can be done differently and the world secretly is always looking for alternative. be the alternative messiah.

:)
and i say....

the lane that took so long
the lane that carried on
a bumpy ride , i took my side
and in my mind i will always dwell
I see odds,coz i rebel
i see evens, coz i surrender...
