Fool For Life (feat. Chris Madin)

Dash Berlin's 'Fool For Life (feat. Chris Madin)' delves into the existential struggle of seeking satisfaction and peace in a world that constantly demands more. The lyrics reflect a deep sense of restlessness and the relentless pursuit of something elusive. The protagonist questions whether the way they are living—always chasing, never settling—is truly fulfilling. This internal conflict is highlighted by the repeated questioning of whether they will ever find a moment of peace and contentment.

The chorus, 'If only fools are satisfied, take my sanity away,' serves as a poignant metaphor for the paradox of contentment. It suggests that perhaps only those who are naive or foolish can find true satisfaction, and if that is the case, the protagonist is willing to sacrifice their sanity for a taste of that elusive peace. This line encapsulates the desperation and the lengths to which one might go to find fulfillment, even if it means losing a part of themselves in the process.

The song also touches on themes of emptiness and the search for wholeness. The line 'I'm like a house without a soul' vividly portrays the protagonist's sense of inner void, which drives them to keep moving, hoping that someone or something can fill that emptiness. The plea for someone to 'make me whole' and 'soothe my head' underscores the human need for connection and the hope that external factors can bring internal peace. Dash Berlin's electronic beats and Chris Madin's emotive vocals amplify the song's emotional depth, making it a resonant anthem for anyone grappling with similar feelings of dissatisfaction and longing.
