we don't belong
Embracing Chaos: Unveiling the Deeper Meaning in 'We Don't Belong'
Lyrics
No we don't belong
No, we don't belong
No we don't belong
-Would you look up high?
Encouraging to look beyond the obvious
There's more than the streetlights
Suggesting there's more to life than what's immediately visible
Watch the kid fly by
Observing a carefree person moving swiftly
He's jumped but he's feeling fine
Despite challenges, the person is optimistic
Side effects are small and harmless
Positive effects outweigh negatives
Only when you hit the surface
Risks are worthwhile when success is achieved
No we don't belong
Reiteration of not fitting into societal norms
No we don't belong
-It's so visceral
Describing an intense, instinctive experience
It's good to feel something
Emphasizing the value of feeling emotions
And if it hurts to fall
Accepting the pain that comes with taking risks
You deal with it, you take it
Facing consequences and dealing with them
So addictive the price to pay
Highlighting the addictive nature of certain experiences
There's nothing worth keeping anyway
Questioning the value of possessions and experiences
No we don't belong
Reiteration of not fitting into societal norms
No we don't belong
-Mother father what'd you do to bring us down to this?
Questioning parental influence on current circumstances
Hollow conversations on the things we used to miss
Describing shallow conversations about past joys
Mother father what'd you do to bring us down to this?
Questioning parental influence on current circumstances
Hollow conversations on the things we used to miss
Describing shallow conversations about past joys
We're compressed by the distractions
Feeling overwhelmed by distractions
We open up when we're alone
Opening up emotionally when alone
Just keep it in make no reaction
Advising to stay composed in challenging situations
And wait it out and then you're done
Enduring difficulties and waiting for resolution
Open up let it out now
Encouraging emotional expression
Give yourself the space to breathe
Taking a break to relax and gather oneself
Open up overreactions
Accepting exaggerated reactions as part of life
Embrace the chaos and you're free
Finding freedom in chaos and unpredictability
Open up let it out now
Encouraging emotional expression
Give yourself the space to breathe
Taking a break to relax and gather oneself
Open up overreactions
Accepting exaggerated reactions as part of life
Embrace the chaos and you're free
Finding freedom in chaos and unpredictability
Open up let it out now
Encouraging emotional expression
Give yourself the space to breathe
Taking a break to relax and gather oneself
Open up overreactions
Accepting exaggerated reactions as part of life
Embrace the chaos and you're free
Finding freedom in chaos and unpredictability
(No we don't belong)
Reiteration of not fitting into societal norms
We're compressed by the distractions
Feeling overwhelmed by distractions
We open up when we're alone
Opening up emotionally when alone
Just keep it in make no reaction
Advising to stay composed in challenging situations
And wait it out and then you're done
Enduring difficulties and waiting for resolution
(No we don't belong)
Reiteration of not fitting into societal norms
Open up let it out now
Encouraging emotional expression
Give yourself the space to breathe
Taking a break to relax and gather oneself
Open up overreactions
Accepting exaggerated reactions as part of life
Embrace the chaos and you're free
Finding freedom in chaos and unpredictability
(No we don't belong)
Reiteration of not fitting into societal norms
