Yes and no. To explain: Yes, the first time I listened to it, because it felt like it might do, I get what you mean I think. No, after the first listen because I think it's still a great track. Does that make sense?

I think it might be my favourite Futurology track I've heard so far, I adore both the lyrics and music.

Lyrics:

Black Square

Let us overcome our endless progress
Art is never modern for art is eternal
When every single day you're haunted by perfection
Paintings are never finished but merely abandoned

Resources, divorces with unknown forces
Endless endorsements slowly passing always
Resources, divorces with unknown forces
Endless endorsements slowly passing always

Let us wipe the slate clean, let us dig our own graves
Let us choose our own wars and make our mistakes
Free yourself from the tyranny of objects
Purged of all colour, the purest abstraction

Resources, divorces with unknown forces
Endless endorsements slowly passing always
Resources, divorces with unknown forces
Endless endorsements slowly passing always

Resources, divorces with unknown forces
Endless endorsements slowly passing always
Resources, divorces with unknown forces
Endless endorsements slowly passing always
