Lyrics

Young alumni dance the night to pieces

Youthful graduates enthusiastically enjoy the night, but it eventually breaks apart.

Wearing all your panic inside out

Expressing anxiety openly, wearing it visibly.

And then to have someone like you like you

Describing the desire for someone like the listener, repeated for emphasis.


Made of broken glass and famous haircuts

Being fragile like broken glass with notable hairstyles.

We see your heartbeat in a cup of tea

Perceiving the person's heartbeat metaphorically in a cup of tea.

The morning scratched with static loud

The morning is disrupted by loud static, possibly symbolizing disturbance.

We've worn our hesitation out

Overcoming reluctance or indecision.

We're made of destinations now

Transforming into beings defined by goals or aspirations.


Love is no big deal

Downplaying the significance of love.

It's falling you feel.

Love is experienced as a falling sensation.


Young alumni modern cocktail drinkers

Recent graduates who embrace modern trends while enjoying cocktails.

Strappy shoes don't match the Thursday drunk

Mismatched strappy shoes on Thursday nights, possibly indicating carefree behavior.

Phones will come alive

Phones become active, possibly due to boredom or restlessness.

Because they are tired of being tied

Phones seek attention because they are tired of being restrained.

Inside the night and now the futures wired.

The night and the future are connected, possibly suggesting a sense of inevitability or predestination.


Love is no big deal

Reiteration that love is not a significant issue.

Its falling you feel.

Love is felt as a falling sensation, emphasizing its simplicity.
