Imagine a journey through the dark recesses of the mind, where reality and morality blur. "The Hitchhiker" by Jim Morrison takes us on a hallucinogenic trip through a desert landscape, reflecting themes of isolation and guilt. The narrator, presumably Morrison himself, embodies a hitchhiker who has just endured a desolate and philosophical journey, confessing to an unseen listener about a murder he committed. His casual, almost indifferent tone, coupled with the iconic lines from "Riders on the Storm," suggests a disconnection from societal norms and a disturbing sense of acceptance of his actions. This eerie narrative challenges us to confront our own moral boundaries and the thin line between sanity and madness. #ExistentialCrisis #DarkJourney #MoralAmbiguity
The Hitchhiker
Lyrics
Thoughts in time and out of season
The hitchhiker stood by the side of the road
And leveled his thumb
In the calm calculus of reason
(Hi, how you doin'?)
I just got back into town
(L.A.?)
I was out on the desert for awhile (riders on the storm)
Yeah, um, in the middle of it (riders on the storm)
(Right) (into this world we're born)
Hey, listen, man, I really got a problem
(Into this world we're thrown) well, um
When I was out on the desert
(Like a dog without a bone)
(An actor out on loan) I don't know how to tell ya
(Riders on the storm) but, uh, I killed somebody
(There's a killer on the road)
No (his brain is squirming like a toad)
It's no big deal, ya know
I don't think anybody will find out about it, but
(Take a long holiday)
(Let your children play) just, uh
This guy gave me a ride, and uh
(If you give this man a ride) started giving me
(Sweet family will die) a lot of troubles
I couldn't take it
(Killer on the road) wasted (yeah)
