Lyrics
I've got one request it's simple
I have a simple request.
Please don't let the people in
Please keep people away from me.
I am nursing an intolerance for social interaction
I have a low tolerance for social interactions.
And I'm looking for the
I'm searching for answers.
answer
Searching for answers continues.
In the shaking of my thumbs
I seek answers in the movement of my thumbs.
In the changing of the seasons
Answers may lie in the changing seasons.
in the things I haven't done
Reflecting on things left undone.
We're going to need a bigger blanket
We need a larger metaphorical blanket to address collective discomfort.
Everybody's getting cold
People are becoming emotionally distant.
And I can't seem to find the solution
Struggling to find a solution to problems.
And the narrative is old
The storyline is repetitive and predictable.
I don't want to disappoint you
Concerns about not meeting expectations.
Am I singing out of key
Questioning if the singing is in tune.
Have I done enough impressing
Worrying about making a good impression.
Since this same time last week
Reflecting on achievements since the previous week.
Your enjoyment is important
Emphasizing the importance of others' enjoyment.
Your employment even more so
Work and employment are crucial.
So get up and wash the dishes
Encouragement to attend to daily chores.
Put your face on, hit the road
Get ready for the day, face challenges, and go out.
We're going to need a bigger blanket
Reiteration of the need for a bigger metaphorical blanket.

I forgot to be profound today
Admission of forgetting to be deep or meaningful today.
And now I'm scared you'll see
Fear of being perceived differently due to the lack of depth.
I think maybe you think too much of me
Concern that others may have overly positive perceptions.
