All My Friends Are Getting Engaged
Love's Race: Navigating Engagement Waves with Ross Black
Lyrics
Scrollin' through my timeline the other day
Expressing the act of browsing through social media updates.
So many things I see leaves me dismayed
Feeling disheartened by the content observed on the timeline.
'Cause every other post is a bro getting down on one knee
Observing frequent posts of friends proposing to their significant others.
Proposing to the girl that was his "meant to be"
Referring to the girl as the one destined for the friend.
All my friends are getting engaged
Expressing that all friends are entering into engagements.
All my friends are getting engaged
Reiteration of the theme that all friends are getting engaged.
It's getting pretty serious is making me delirious
Feeling overwhelmed by the seriousness of the engagements.
I guess it's just a phase, I'm getting to that age that
Reflecting on the phase of life where engagements become common.
All my friends are getting engaged
Reiterating the observation that all friends are getting engaged.
Feeling like a kid that went back in time
Comparing the feeling to a child traveling back in time.
'Cause lately
Introducing a sense of skepticism about "happy ever after."
Happy ever after seems like a lie
Expressing doubt or disbelief in the concept of eternal happiness.
No wait slow down I can't keep up
Asking for a pause or slowdown in the engagements.
It seems like I should just give up
Contemplating giving up on the idea of finding love.
Everyone here is finding love
Noticing that everyone around is discovering love.
Every guy here except for me
Expressing the feeling of being the only single person in the group.
All my friends are getting engaged
Reiteration of the observation that all friends are getting engaged.
All my friends are getting engaged
Repetition emphasizing the prevalence of engagements among friends.
It's getting pretty serious is making me delirious
Reiterating the overwhelming and serious nature of the engagements.
I guess it's just a phase, I'm getting to that age that
Linking the phase of life to the age where engagements become common.
All my friends are getting engaged
Reiterating the observation that all friends are getting engaged.
When did seconds turn to days
Reflecting on the perception that time is passing quickly.
The time is ticking away
Highlighting the fleeting nature of time.
Whoa-oh-oh
Adding a musical exclamation to the passing of time.
Always first, not second dates
Expressing a preference for first dates over second dates.
I won't be changing her last name
Asserting the decision not to change the last name in marriage.
Whoa-oh-oh
Adding a musical interjection emphasizing the decision.
Well it's not true but I know one thing
Stating that the previous line is not true but emphasizing a realization.
Everyone's thought this a time or two
Acknowledging that everyone has questioned the concept of love.
All my friends are getting engaged
