Destroy
Chasing Change: The Vivid Hues of Shout Out Louds' 'Destroy'
Lyrics
Nothing is ever for sure no more
Expressing uncertainty about the future, a lack of stability.
Oh, nothing's what it used to be
Highlighting the significant changes in the past, suggesting a departure from the familiar.
Now black is the only color I know
Emphasizing a monochrome perspective, possibly symbolizing a sense of bleakness or simplicity.
The only color to me
Reiterating the dominance of black as the primary color, reinforcing the idea of a limited or narrow view.
A change is always good if you want it
Suggesting that change can be positive if one desires it.
A change is always good, right?
Questioning the universally positive nature of change, possibly hinting at skepticism.
Now blue is the only color I know
Introducing blue as a new dominant color, replacing black.
The only color tonight
Emphasizing blue as the sole color in the current experience.
I see it all collapse
Observing a collapse, possibly metaphorical, under uncertain circumstances.
Under what might be
Speculating about the cause of the collapse, using "what might be" to express uncertainty.
The first and the last
Referring to the beginning and end, suggesting completeness or totality.
To get me where I want
Expressing a desire to achieve personal goals.
I need my palette back
Expressing a need to regain a diverse range of experiences or emotions.
I wish I could, just to collapse
Expressing a wish to collapse, possibly indicating a desire for a fresh start or release.
I see it out the window, leaving
Observing a departure, possibly symbolizing the end of something.
I see it slithering away
Describing the departure as subtle or sneaky.
Not sure it's the only word I know
Uncertain about the only word known, introducing a sense of ambiguity.
Destroy, destroy, destroy
Repeatedly emphasizing the word "destroy," suggesting a theme of destruction or transformation.
A change is always good if you want it
Reiterating the potential positive nature of change.
A change is always good, right?
Questioning the universal positivity of change again.
Now blue is the only color I know
Reintroducing blue as the dominant color.
The only color tonight
Stating blue as the only color for the current moment.
I see it all collapse
Repeating the observation of a collapse under uncertain circumstances.
Under what might be
Reiterating uncertainty about the cause of the collapse.
The first and the last
Repeating the reference to the beginning and end, emphasizing completeness or totality.
To get me where I want
Reiterating the desire to achieve personal goals.
I need my palette back
Reiterating the need to regain a diverse range of experiences or emotions.
I wish I could, just to collapse
Repeating the wish to collapse, expressing a strong desire for change.
I wish I could, just to collapse
Emphasizing the intensity of the desire to collapse.
I wish I could, just to collapse
Repeating the intensity of the desire to collapse, possibly indicating urgency.
Nothing is ever for sure no more
Restating the theme of uncertainty about the future.
Oh nothing's what it used to be
Reiterating the significant changes in the past.
Now black is the only color I know
Reintroducing black as the dominant color.
The only color to me
Reiterating black as the only color, possibly suggesting a return to a previous state.
A change is always good if you want it
Reiterating the potential positive nature of change.
A change is always good, right?
Questioning the universal positivity of change again.
Now blue is the only color I know
Reintroducing blue as the dominant color.
The only color tonight
Stating blue as the only color for the current moment.
The only color to me
Repeating blue as the only color, emphasizing its significance.
The only color tonight
Repeating blue as the only color for the current moment.
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Repeating "tonight" multiple times, possibly indicating a focus on the present moment.
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Continuing the emphasis on the current night, possibly suggesting a sense of immediacy.
