Breaking Free from Fear: The Call of 'Barricades'

The song 'Barricades' by the artist associated with the anime series 'Attack On Titan (Shingeki No Kyojin)' is a powerful anthem that speaks to the desire for freedom and the heavy cost that often comes with it. The lyrics paint a picture of longing for a peaceful existence, symbolized by walking on pure white sand and gazing at the horizon without fear. This imagery is starkly contrasted with the reality of living 'as slaves,' suggesting a life constrained by fear and oppression.

The chorus of the song grapples with the moral dilemma of fighting for freedom. The repeated lines 'We've got to learn to get back, get back / But is it worth the price of our soul?' highlight the internal conflict between the yearning to reclaim autonomy and the ethical cost of doing so. The phrase 'You know you had to kill her, kill her!' could be interpreted as a metaphor for the sacrifices and hard choices one must face when seeking liberation. The 'dirty hands' that never fade symbolize the lasting impact of these actions on one's conscience.

Ultimately, 'Barricades' is a call to break free from the chains that bind us, both literal and metaphorical. It's about the struggle to live freely and the acknowledgment that such a life comes at a price. The song resonates with themes of resistance, the pursuit of freedom, and the psychological toll of fighting against one's constraints. It's a reminder that while the path to freedom is fraught with challenges, the end goal of living 'a life without barricades' is a vision worth striving for.
