This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
It's hard to believe a liar
When she's calling out your name.
The signals are calling out so well.
You called her lover
She punished you so deep.
Her voice rings out like a beautiful melody.
I'm breaking all the angles.
I'm falling down in circles.
I am gasping for sleep.
And did you see me falling?
Like a sun down in the evening
I am so dark and weak.
So she's packing up to leave for good now.
Battlelines have been drawn out love.
And when we drive, we'll take that long way home.
And I apologize for bleeding words.
We'll pack our things up like we should
And go our way back home.
It's hard to believe to a story
That's been told so well.
All these lines are sounding the same.
Cross my fingers
Hold your breath
Suburban legend, queen of that.
I leave you with this beautiful melody.
So she's packing up to leave for good now.
Battlelines have been drawn out love.
And when we drive, we'll take that long way home.
And I apologize for bleeding words.
We'll pack our things up like we should
And go our way back home.
When she's calling out your name.
The signals are calling out so well.
You called her lover
She punished you so deep.
Her voice rings out like a beautiful melody.
I'm breaking all the angles.
I'm falling down in circles.
I am gasping for sleep.
And did you see me falling?
Like a sun down in the evening
I am so dark and weak.
So she's packing up to leave for good now.
Battlelines have been drawn out love.
And when we drive, we'll take that long way home.
And I apologize for bleeding words.
We'll pack our things up like we should
And go our way back home.
It's hard to believe to a story
That's been told so well.
All these lines are sounding the same.
Cross my fingers
Hold your breath
Suburban legend, queen of that.
I leave you with this beautiful melody.
So she's packing up to leave for good now.
Battlelines have been drawn out love.
And when we drive, we'll take that long way home.
And I apologize for bleeding words.
We'll pack our things up like we should
And go our way back home.

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Lairs and Battlelines - As i said before in a eariler song... Those relationships where you date someone.. and its just not going good at all.. but you stay with that persons.. till you both end up leaving... just my perspective on something that happened to me.. kinda just calling it quits and getting ready for that trash talk from each person that you hear from there friends after the break up.... "when you drive, youll take that long way home" well sometimes if i get upset ... ill drive around for hours... listening to music.. take a different way home... just to chill and be myself some.. During recording sessions i actually sang that Fall out Boy song in the back ground... " Im going downtown da li do li do da" sorry i dont know there lyrics.. but it sounded really cool.. but of coarse we couldnt keep it...
