Fascinating Lyrics
Fascinating
I've latched on
I've been wrong
no one told me what to wear
no one sent me home
space age party, fascinating
I just don't fit in
someone throw me anything
the oxygen is thin
if you just could speak to me
just throw me a line
give me just a little nod
I could fascinate you
but I am out of place
float in outer space
no one wants to pull me in
it's awful saving face
I could fascinate
I could serenade
I'm opinionated
I'll have Vodka lemonade
if you just could me speak to me
just throw me a line
give me just a little nod
you are fascinating
I could serenade
we could throw this party
and take off on our own
find our own higher place
an odyssey back home
I could not be less included
you could not have known
in my darkest rose and pennant
I am so alone
if you just can speak to me
just throw me a line
give me just a little nod
you are fascinating
I could serenade
I could fascinate you
I could resonate
I think this song is about an introvert or outcast who no one bothers speaking to. He goes out and feels unwelcome or like he doesn’t belong, and all the while wishes someone would just give him a chance and strike up conversation with him. “Give me just a little nod, I could fascinate you.” Is the narrators way of saying “you’d be surprised, just talk to me.”
I think the chorus is more or less him talking to someone he meets at the gathering and finds attractive but can’t bring himself to initiate conversation
A really beautiful song, it cements the feeling of otherness Reveal has. Nothing like they did before or did after. I wish they would’ve put in on the record Because it’s flawless otherwise.
