Imagine being trapped in an elevator that doubles as a therapist's office. "Lift" by Radiohead is Thom Yorke's existential pep talk to himself, urging him to let go of past traumas. The air conditioning smell and belly-up fish symbolize stagnation and lifelessness, while the mysterious voice is like that nagging friend who always knows what's best for you. It's time to empty your pockets—of emotional baggage, of course—and embrace the future with a lighter heart. After all, today is the first day of the rest of your days! #ExistentialCrisis #EmotionalDetox
Lift
Lyrics
This is the place
Sit down, you're safe now
You've been stuck in a lift
We've been trying to reach you, Thom
This is the place
It won't hurt ever again
The smell of air conditioning
The fish are belly up
Empty all your pockets
Because it's time to come home
This is the place
Remember me?
I'm the face you always see
You've been stuck in a lift
In the belly of a whale
At the bottom of the ocean
The smell of air conditioning
The fish are belly up
Empty all your pockets
Because it's time to come home
The smell of air conditioning
The fish are belly up
Let it go
Today is the first day
Of the rest of your days
So lighten up, squirt
