Flares and Fireworks: Whitehall's Reflection on Noise and Meaning
Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Ive been feeling flares out

I've been experiencing bursts of intense emotions

For the light that shines on my face

Seeking the positive influence that brightens my mood

I've been waiting for a crowd

Anticipating a gathering or audience

To put me in my place

Expecting criticism or correction from others


Tired of setting off

Weary of creating excitement too frequently

fireworks every other day

Expressing dissatisfaction with the repetitiveness of life

It's too loud and the dogs howl

Noisy environment causing discomfort, metaphorically represented by dogs howling

It couldn't matter less what they say

Indifference to others' opinions or comments


Deja vu on the radio

Feeling a sense of repetition in music and media

Autotune sweet summer songs

Critiquing the prevalence of autotune in contemporary music

Static to me, pink noise in the heat

Dissonance and chaos represented by "pink noise" in the heat

Out of tune singing along

Singing along despite being out of harmony


Is it alright if I'm waiting

Seeking reassurance or comfort before feeling okay

For all this to feel alright

Expressing a desire for things to be acceptable or normal

Before talking or shouting

Hesitating to speak out or express oneself

About whatever's on my mind

Discussing topics on one's mind after feeling at ease


Deja vu i miss it too

Recalling a familiar feeling of repetition

I was happy having nothing to do

Nostalgic for a time of contentment with simplicity

Now can't sit still, even though I will

Restless despite having nothing to do

Overthrown by anything new

Overwhelmed by anything new or unfamiliar


Remorse for never sounding the same

Regret for not remaining consistent or true to oneself

How's a signal transmit so wrong

Questioning the distortion of communication signals


While neighbors try to say their grace

Observing others engaging in religious or thankful practices


Im just a drunken telephoner

Describing oneself as a metaphorical drunken caller

Can you hear the other end

Questioning if the intended message is received by the other party

I think I'm getting sick of meaning anything

Feeling weary of conveying meaning or significance

Breath like mustard gas and rose in bloom

Metaphorical description of unhealthy breath and blossoming beauty

out back a garden song

Describing a peaceful and pleasant outdoor scene

Tepid tongue steps each one louder than the last

Gradual escalation of expressing thoughts or emotions
