Make Out Kids
Broken Hearts and Miniature Mistakes: Make Out Kids' Bittersweet Symphony
Lyrics
They carved the message deep within our broken hearts that failed to mend:
Expresses the deep emotional scars left by a failed relationship.
Make out kids never had a chance to be best friends.
Suggests that the romantic involvement hindered the chance of forming a platonic friendship.
He's into math and magazines,
Describes the contrasting interests and personalities of the individuals involved, highlighting their differences and conflicts.
Director's cuts and gray-sell green
-Armed with her knife and contradictions,
-She sees completely through me.
-I'm fond of twin peaks,
Lists personal preferences and insecurities, emphasizing the ways they find solace in each other's company.
Afternoons,
-Inexpensive wine,
-With cordon bleu..
-Armed with a plethora of insecurities, we keep each other amused..
-Headed for the madness, we are better by design,
Indicates a realization that their relationship is inherently chaotic but uniquely suited to them.
It's all we'll ever have to say goodbye..
-Say goodbye.
Reiterates the inevitability of parting ways.
Flown in, sleep over winter break,
Recalls specific moments of shared intimacy and connection during winter break.
Cocktails and miniature mistakes,
-Lights out, we're covered in each others' warm embrace..
-And we sing..
Repeats the theme of the inevitable farewell, emphasizing its significance in their relationship.
Headed for the madness, we are better by design,
-It's all we'll ever have to say goodbye,
-Say goodbye. [x2]
-If we keep swimming, maybe this will never die.
Expresses a desire to prolong the relationship by avoiding confrontation and difficult emotions.
We fail to keep in touch these days,
Describes the growing distance between the individuals due to life circumstances.
As I'm liquid cold, she's motor grey,
-We're hollowed by circumstance that pushed us both away.
-We carved a message deep within our broken hearts that failed to mend:
Echoes the opening lines, emphasizing the lasting impact of the failed relationship on their ability to be friends.
Make out kids never had a chance to be best friends.
