Lyrics
Have you ever hear of Gide?
Reference to André Gide, suggesting a literary influence or source.
I won't advise, it's full of lies
Expressing skepticism about Gide's advice or work being deceptive.
Trust me, I know 'cause I believed it so
Asserting personal experience of being misled by Gide's ideas.
What was I supposed to do?
Reflecting on a sense of confusion or uncertainty about the next steps.
Turn my back?
Considering the option of turning away from a situation or relationship.
Well, that would lack
Highlighting the drawback of turning away, implying potential loss.
A certain amount of happiness
Emphasizing the value of enduring challenges for a certain level of happiness.
No doubt it's brutal and cruel and inevitable
Describing life as brutal, cruel, and inevitable.
It's not my fault so I don't care anymore
Indicating a shift in attitude, adopting indifference due to a lack of responsibility.
I'm packing up and moving out
Deciding to leave a situation or relationship.
And it's all right 'cause I'll be miles away
Expressing acceptance and anticipation of being physically distant.
Trying to find new things to say, to say
Seeking new experiences and perspectives.
Take me home and tuck me in
Desiring comfort and emotional support.
Hold me tight and I just might tell you all I know
Suggesting a willingness to share personal experiences with someone close.
(I'm feeling pretty low)
Acknowledging a state of emotional distress.
Sunglasses and handkerchiefs
Referencing accessories that may symbolize hiding emotions or putting on a facade.
I'm chronicling everything that's happened to us
Recording and documenting events in a relationship or life journey.
So hate me if you must
Acknowledging potential disapproval or hatred from others.
It's easy to do so easy to do, yeah
Highlighting the ease with which one can harbor negative feelings.
And so convenient
Emphasizing the convenience of disliking someone or something.
It's all my fault though I don't care anymore
Reiterating indifference, claiming responsibility without emotional investment.
I'm packing up and moving out
Repeating the decision to leave, emphasizing detachment.
And it's all right 'cause I'll be miles away
Reaffirming the acceptance of physical distance and change.
Trying to find new things to say
Continuing the search for new perspectives and expressions.
Trying to find new things to say
Reiterating the quest for fresh ideas and words.
