Lyrics
Can somebody
Expressing a desire for attention or acknowledgment
Look my way
Requesting someone to notice or pay attention
Eastern boys, Midwestern girls walk the other way
Observing different groups (Eastern boys, Midwestern girls) avoiding interaction
Or out to sea
Suggesting isolation or feeling distant from others
I don't have credit
Lacking credibility or recognition
Not much for friends
Having few close relationships
Are we out of conversations or can we just pretend?
Questioning if meaningful conversations are depleted or if pretense is necessary
And break to bend
Pausing to adapt or change despite difficulties
If we exist from the outside why not just leave yourself inside?
Questioning the need to conform to external standards instead of embracing oneself
I'm in the market for the common mind
Seeking connections with ordinary or relatable individuals
So just leave yourself inside
Encouraging acceptance or integration of someone into one's thoughts
Of my mind
Reinforcing the idea of someone being a significant part of the speaker's thoughts
I'm not a bank
Denying being a source of infinite resources or emotional support
To boil down
Reducing complexities or issues into simpler elements
Just crunchin' numbers with new friends
Engaging in superficial interactions with new acquaintances
Infinitely new in town
Feeling perpetually new or unfamiliar in a location
When it's my town
Claiming ownership or familiarity with a place
Like a branch swayed
Comparing emotions to the swaying of a branch, suggesting movement or change
My love abound
Expressing abundant love or emotions
When the big wind comes to shake things up are you still around?
Questioning the commitment or presence of others during challenging times
It's the middle of March man why not just lock up?
Questioning the reason for not seeking shelter or protection during difficulties
I see you inside
Perceiving someone's presence or influence in the speaker's thoughts
I'm in the market for the common mind so don't hold up
Expressing impatience or eagerness for connection with ordinary individuals
You were just inside
Noting the presence or impact of someone in the speaker's thoughts
Of my mind
Reinforcing the idea of someone being a significant part of the speaker's thoughts
It's frightened company
Expressing discomfort or unease about being with someone
