Matt Maltese's introspective lyrics encapsulate the universal search for meaning and fulfillment in life. The recurring desire to both embrace and reject various roles—be it a person of significance or insignificance, a darling or a fraud—speaks to the conflicting aspirations and anxieties inherent in human existence. The repeated lines, "I keep on looking for something that isn't there," poignantly highlight the elusive nature of true contentment. This phrase suggests a continuous, almost futile quest for an unattainable ideal, underlined by the various dichotomous aspirations Maltese expresses throughout the song. Ultimately, the narrative reflects a deep existential longing, navigating through societal expectations and personal desires. #ExistentialSearch #InnerConflict
Looking
Lyrics
I wanna be a person, I wanna be apart
I wanna do things in the back of your car
I wanna be nothing, wanna be a star
I wanna find a reason to get up at all
I keep on looking for something that isn't there
I keep on looking for something that isn't there
I wanna be a darling, I wanna be a fraud
I wanna take my head out of the oven
I wanna be a terror, I wanna be stoned
I wanna be more than a guy on the couch
I keep on looking for something that isn't there
I keep on looking for something that isn't there
I keep on looking for something that isn't there
I keep on looking
