In this emotionally charged track, Hands Like Houses delve into the struggles of being misunderstood and the longing for connection. The lyrics explore a deep sense of frustration from the narrator's repeated attempts to show their true self to someone who fails to understand their perspective. Despite the narrator’s efforts to bridge the gap, they are met with indifference and confusion, leading to feelings of time wasted and internal conflict. The repetition of "all for nothing" emphasizes the perceived futility of their struggles. The song conveys the pain of changing oneself in search of acceptance and the hope that if only they could find the right approach, the other person might finally see their point of view. Ultimately, it reflects on the universal struggle for validation and understanding from important figures in our lives.
Perspectives
Lyrics
Be honest with yourself
Do you see in your reflection someone else
You're fogging up the glass, and looking for direction
So close you can't see past
I'll make amends, I'll make believe
I'll make my mind, I'll make you see
I'll take a chance, I'll take a moment
All for nothing
All my life
I tried letting you inside to
See the world through my eyes
And all I see (is time I've wasted)
All my life you thought that
I've lost my mind
If I could just get it right
Then You might see
You just don't get it
(You just don't get it)
The lights left on all night
The locks have all been changed
While I'm inside
And I'm beating down the door
Knuckles bloody broken raw
Tried to take these walls and turn them inside out
It's all for nothing
All my life
I tried letting you inside to
See the world through my eyes
And all I see (is time I've wasted)
All my life you thought that
I've lost my mind
If I could just get it right
Then You might see
You just don't get it
(You just don't get it)
I'll make amends, I'll make believe
I'll make my mind, I'll make you see
I'll take a chance, I'll take a moment
Let it out and let go
It's all for nothing!
(It's all for nothing)
All my life
I tried letting you inside
All my life
I tried letting you inside to
See the world through my eyes
And all I see (is time I've wasted)
All my life you thought that
I've lost my mind
If I could just get it right
Then You might see
You just don't get it
(You just don't get it)
You just don't get it (You just don't get it)
It's all for nothing
(You just don't get it)
