Everyone Says
Navigating the Shadows of Pain: The Brian Jonestown Massacre's Revelations
Lyrics
Did you mean what you said
Questioning if the person meant what they said
Wish to God you was dead
Expressing intense frustration or anger towards the person
Pain
Emphasizing the feeling of pain
Could try to toughen up
Suggesting the possibility of toughening up despite difficulties
Although I think you've had enough
Implying that the person has experienced enough pain
Of Pain
Reiterating the presence of pain
You've tried, tried
Repetition of attempts, perhaps to communicate or make a point
Sayin', sayin'
Repetition of the act of saying something
I know
Unclear, possibly a continuation of the previous line
I ?
Uncertain or missing information, denoted by a question mark
? was sayin'
Another instance of uncertain or missing information
Sayin'
Repetition of the act of saying something
Everything reminds me of something you said, yeah
Memories triggered by things said by the person
Everybody is watching me running away
Feeling observed or judged while trying to escape or avoid
Did you mean when you said
Repeating the questioning of whether the person meant something
You talked to God, he was dead
Referencing a conversation with God or a higher power
Pain
Emphasizing pain again
Everything reminds me of something you said, yeah
Recollection of something the person said, leading to memories
Everybody is watching me running away
Sense of being observed or pursued while trying to escape
Everything reminds me of something you said, yeah
Repetition of memories triggered by what the person said
Everybody is watching me running away
Feeling of being watched or judged while attempting to flee
