Legs Away Lyrics

Cover art for Legs Away lyrics by Mother Mother

I have to say that after listening to this album for quite some time, this song has stuck out to be my favourite.

The first part of the song obviously talks about the feeling of being lost, and being unsure of where the next destination is or even should be.

The second part with the old man and the truck just screams rape, but that is besides the point. Symbolically, the artist is trying to say that when you are lost and unsure, kinda just stuck at that halfway point, it often helps to side with another, and finish the journey together. The old man in the truck also does not "have much to do today", suggesting that both he and the narrator are in the same situation, so by cooperation they can both help each other out.

The chorus is relatively straightforward, talking about how he wishes he could stop his journey, but is unable to.
