| Real Estate – Out of Tune Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
To me it sounds like the song's talking about someone who is desperate to fit in, but no matter what they do, they can't. 'you play along to songs written for you, but you're all out of tune.' It reminds me of people who try to meld into social circles that they really don't belong to; trying to be people they're not. The imagery of a 'weeping clown' also suggests this: a weeping clown is someone who has to put on a facade of being happy, but their true selves is deeply unhappy. This form of lying to oneself seems to be a running theme in the song. |
