Standards Lyrics

This is out of body
this is out of my hands
music from the 80s
played by electronic bands, bands, bands


this is where i lose control
this is where it falls apart
gotta let a good thing go
before i take it all to heart


everybody blame the person next to you
everybody hates what they have turned into
everybody drinks too much, and so do you
if we're all this guilty, the standards must have changed


this is where i'm staying
when the glacier comes to town
i won't object to godholding
nature's reset button down


this is how to fan a flame
this is how to make a spark
watching while we ingest
just waitin for the hurt to start


everybody lies when theres a lot to lose
everybody knows what word i'm gonna use
everybody tells me what i shouldn't do
everybody can't see what i'm going through


everybody blame the person next to you
everybody hates what they have turned into
everybody drinks too much and so do you
if we're all this guilty, the standards must have changed

Cover art for Standards lyrics by Meese

This song is AWWWEEESSOOOMMMEEE!! i love the lyrics, i want to decipher them lol so here goes "This is out of body this is out of my hands music from the 80s played by electronic bands, bands, bands" he's saying that he can't fix this, it's just a mess. I don't understand the 80s reference... "this is where i lose control this is where it falls apart gotta let a good thing go before i take it all to heart" i think he's saying that now its ruined his life and that there's no turning back "everybody blame the person next to you everybody hates what they have turned into everybody drinks too much, and so do you if we're all this guilty, the standards must have changed" this part is about how people are always correcting people, and telling them they shouldn't do this or that, but in reality they do bad things too and they shouldn't tell others what to do "this is where i'm staying when the glacier comes to town i won't object to godholding nature's reset button down" again he's saying that everything is ruined and destroyed, and now everyone else has realized it too "this is how to fan a flame this is how to make a spark watching while we ingest just waitin for the hurt to start" thats my favorite part, when he's talking about the flame, i think of someone putting someone else down, and someone puts them down for putting the first person down. i just feel he's saying if you say don't do that, you shouldn't do that "everybody lies when theres a lot to lose everybody knows what word i'm gonna use everybody tells me what i shouldn't do everybody can't see what i'm going through" this part again, he's just saying that everyone does bad things, and no one is perfect, and we shouldnt tell others to stop doing things. like he says if we're all this guilty, the standards must have changed, meaning if we all do bad stuff, apparantly we do worse stuff than you, which is never true. wrong is wrong and that's what he's saying.
