Lyrics

You're taking the pictures but the focus is off

You are capturing moments, but the focus is misplaced.

The places you love, its been so long.

The places you cherish have been distant for a long time.

The past years, they’ve never felt so far, but

The past years feel remote, but they were never truly satisfying.

They never felt that good at all

Past experiences were not as good as they may have seemed.


We could get away

Suggesting a desire to escape from the current situation.

This really ain't our place

The current environment doesn't feel like where they belong.

The kids are loaded up and they're stalking us like prey

Feeling pursued or threatened, possibly by societal expectations.

It got our friends the same

Their friends are facing similar challenges.

Hiding in the rain

People are concealing their true selves, perhaps due to societal pressures.

I hope it’s not too late.

A hope that there's still time to make a positive change.


Maybe we could take it slow

Suggesting a desire to approach life more slowly.

Animal heads on our own

Embracing a carefree, unrestrained lifestyle symbolized by "animal heads."

The side that you don't show

Acknowledging a hidden or unexpressed aspect of oneself.

Is what they wanna take from you.

Cautioning against others trying to exploit one's vulnerable side.


I wanna fall asleep in the sand

Expressing a desire for a peaceful, carefree state.

Don't wanna feel the cuts on my hands.

Avoiding pain or hardship, seeking comfort.

Animals, they hide in the 'Benz

Reference to luxury or posh lifestyles in contrast to personal struggles.

I am crashing down I don't know where to land

Feeling overwhelmed and unsure about the future.


Laugh track when you want none

Expressing discomfort with forced or insincere laughter.

Dressed up for the wrong fun,

Dressing up for the wrong reasons, perhaps to fit in.

Got the whole thing all done up

Completing a task, but the outcome is unsatisfactory.

But it looks weak and it feels rough.

The result appears weak and feels difficult.

Say names you feel that

Mentioning names associated with certain emotions or situations.

Forwards can’t see that

People moving forward might not understand certain feelings.

It’s too late to turn back

It's too late to reverse or undo certain actions or decisions.


I'm so fed up with this shit

Expressing frustration and dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs.

'It’s all for you'

A possible sarcastic or questioning tone regarding the statement "It’s all for you."

Isit?

Questioning the sincerity or truthfulness of the previous statement.
