Brace
Navigating Uncertainty: Wild Front's Reflection on Life's Ambiguities in 'Brace'
Lyrics
When is a lie a lie if you know it isn't true?
Questioning the definition of a lie when one is aware it's not true.
Hell is a cold, dark space not hot, nor sparse
Describing hell as a cold, dark space, contrary to common beliefs.
A thick, tight brace
Metaphorical reference to a strong and constricting support or constraint.
Stay in your lane
Advising to stay in one's own designated path or responsibilities.
Well, you know I love you?
Expressing love with a question, possibly indicating uncertainty or doubt.
You know I love you?
Repetition of the previous line, emphasizing the uncertainty in the expression of love.
Nothing is certain
Asserting the lack of certainty in life or existence.
Nothing is owned in the scheme of time
Highlighting the transient nature of ownership in the grand scheme of time.
I could see for miles when I was who I was before
Reflecting on a past state where vision and understanding were clear.
Or was it where I was?
Pondering whether the clarity was related to a location or a personal state.
If where you are made you, who you are
Suggesting that one's surroundings contribute to shaping their identity.
Where will I be?
Pondering the future and where one will end up based on current circumstances.
Where am I now?
Questioning the present and current location in the journey of life.
Where will I be?
Repetition of the inquiry about the future and where it leads.
Where am I now?
Repetition of questioning the present and current location in life.
I'm alright if you're alright
Expressing well-being if the other person is also okay.
Can never tell what isn't true
Acknowledging the difficulty of distinguishing truth from falsehood.
I’m not half myself in any case
Feeling incomplete or not fully oneself in various situations.
A thick tight brace
Reiteration of a strong and constricting support or constraint.
Stay in your lane.
Repeating the advice to stick to one's path or responsibilities.
Well, you know I love you?
Repeating the expression of love with a question, reinforcing uncertainty.
You know I love you?

I just pretend that you were out along the coastline with me in the night
Imagining or pretending to share a moment by the coastline in the night with the other person.
