The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Ignoranz" by the artist "Umbra Et Imago"

In the song "Ignoranz" (Ignorance) by the German band Umbra et Imago, the lyrical hero faces misunderstanding and aggression from the outside world ("Your gaze hides anger"). In response, he chooses a position of conscious ignorance, which he calls "the new path of ignorance."

This path is not cowardice, but a conscious choice ("I did not choose this world..."). The hero does not want to participate in conflicts and meaningless disputes ("I have no psychopathic desires, and I do not want to rummage in your garbage"). Ignorance becomes a shield for him, protecting him from negativity and allowing him to live in harmony with himself ("This ignorance is my protection, it is pleasant and useful").

He does not strive to destroy or impose his will ("I do not want to wage wars"), but prefers to distance himself from everything that violates his inner world ("It is better to just ignore you"). Questions and claims from the outside world cause only irritation ("What are these questions supposed to mean? Do you really think I'm okay?"). The hero is not looking for compromises, he has already found his path to peace - through "ignorance" to inner harmony ("I don't want to wage wars for the sake of compromises, I intend to win... This is my path to harmony").
