Shellshocked Lyrics
I'm standing shellshocked but I'm still here
And this to you is what I'm saying
All that's false will
Fade away
I will remember everything that you have done
And this to you is what I'm saying
All that's false will
Fade away
Who are you
To say to me
That I'm not all right
You don't know it's like
I'm shellshocked
And ripped apart inside
No I'm not all right
You don't know what it's like
And if it's what you need to say
It's probably what I need to hear
But never again in that way
It's my care for pursuing our friendship responsibly
That's why I need to reconstruct what happens subconsciously
So we don't continue to treat our silence so obnoxiously
I'm standing shellshocked but I'm still here
And this to you is what I'm saying
All that's false will
Fade away
Because i'm getting sick of all the same chaos
Something better get repetitive
Because i'm getting sick of all the same chaos)
Very cool tune. He just got dumped - the bomb that she just dropped - and she's lying and pinning it on him like his character flaws are to blame. But who are you to tell me I'm not alright, you don't know what it's like to be me. In the end the truth will come out and the reason she dropped the bomb will be apparant, her false excuses will just fade away.
I'd say it's about dealin with problems in a relationship whether it'd be girlfriend/boyfriend or any other friend. It's not good to lie to any friend. Communication is key and essential in any relationship. Once people stop talkin' to each other, they drift away. Facing the facts and moving forward in a relationship is what I think this song is about.
This song to me is about that the truth will eventually come out of everyone. And that individuals are themselves and not someone else, everyone is different in their views from one another.
dude that is exactly what i wouldve typed
I don't think this sing is about girls, or relationships at all. It's about the breakdown if a friendship "It's my care for pursuing our friendship responsibly"
this song is brilliant and chronic future's best song off the album
This song can have many meanings. The band probaly wanted it that way. "The bomb" can be several things. I do think the song is giving the message that all lies come undone eventually.
My song ends with this(and then the slow part):
"Well yeah a change in character is great And if it's what you need to say It's probably what I need to hear"
If you need to say something, say it, don't lie.
i never really tried to understand what it means, because then i get too into it. i just listen and enjoy the song. this is by far one of the best on the cd
If you think about it, it could be related to WWI. At least in a metaphorical sense.
Shell shock is what soldiers in that war got after so much battle and shooting and stuff.
Bomb dropping, ripped apart inside, etc.
I see what you mean but i think what he's feeling is worse than shellshock and that is what he's comparing it too. having gone through this for the past three days i would know. when you lose the one you love, you're ripped apart inside and it kinda feels like you've had a bomb dropped on you

changing character is great LOVE That line its a sick song amazing band live its about dealing with alot of different problems i think its from a 3rd person perspective like just think this when you hear the song: when someone says they know how you feel you get angry and yell
and the sweet lullibuy at the end its so nice
