Surface Observations
Navigating Turmoil: Slowcoaches' 'Surface Observations' Unveiled
Lyrics
Thought we could clear my head and kill some time
Expressing the hope to clear one's mind and pass time together.
But all we caused is trouble
Reflecting on unintended trouble caused during the time spent together.
Well I guess I was lucky just to find
Acknowledging luck in finding someone who doesn't gossip or speak negatively.
You didn’t talk shit
Appreciating the absence of negative talk or criticism.
You’ve got a face on
Noticing a certain expression on the partner's face.
The one that says “It’s not up for discussion”
Describing the expression as a sign that the topic is not open for discussion.
You said that if you lie on a line then your body looks the same each side
Referencing a statement about the symmetry of the body when lying on a line.
And I can’t tell you what that mens but it’s all I have
Expressing uncertainty about the meaning of the statement but emphasizing its importance.
So you filled my head and you killed my mind
Connecting the partner's influence to a negative impact on thoughts and mental well-being.
Now everything’s a struggle
Describing a general struggle in various aspects of life after the mentioned influence.
And I guess its too long now to find
Expressing a belief that it's too late to make positive changes.
I can’t torch it
Expressing an inability to destroy or get rid of something.
But if you lie all the time then your body is as safe as mine
Highlighting the safety of the body when consistently lying or deceiving.
And I can’t tell you what that means cause it slowly shifts
Expressing uncertainty about the meaning of constant lying but noting its gradual impact.
Insist that this will make me sick tonight
Stating a belief that a particular action will lead to sickness.
But I’m so bored I’ll do it
Expressing boredom and a willingness to engage in an activity despite its negative consequences.
I’m only doubled up inside
Acknowledging internal struggles or conflicts.
Insist that this will make me sick tonight
Reiterating the belief that a certain action will make the speaker sick.
But I’m so bored I’ll prove it
Reiterating boredom but emphasizing a determination to prove it.
You tell me what it looks like
Requesting the partner's perspective or opinion on a certain matter.
