EVERYTHING EVERYTHING
- Duet LyricsDo you feel left behind?
Like there's something not right?
I don't think I've been connected
But of all the dead volcanos on Earth you just happened to retch
And roll
Through mine
There were fistfuls of hair 'round the foot of my chair
And acres of screens before me
But breathing out I swear you were real
You were there
You were there
You were there
For a while
But I don't know what's real and what's going on
And I don't wanna be here when the sky is gone
(I just can't keep up with it, I)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
(Nothing's good, there's something more)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
It was somewhere to wink
It was slipped in my drink
A necropolis for the taking
But all the cities fall into war and there's nothing but knives
And fears
And forks
Seems the more I find out, the more I'm sure I'll be killed
And baby I get the feeling, there's somewhere dark and noble yet
And it's here (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin')
And it's here (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin')
And it's here for a while (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin')
(I-I, I-I)
But I don't know what's real and what's going on
And I don't wanna be here when the sky is gone
(I just can't keep up with it, I)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
(Nothing's good, there's something more)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
But I can hear them plunderin' the streets at night
You never shoulda told them what you had inside
And I don't want my children in an endless race
And I don't wanna wait to see what else they take
(So far I'm in love with you, I'm)
And all that matters now is that we don't let go
(And I can tell they're watching for it)
And you can be my wonder in my town of woe
(Time to let the genie out)
If it's gonna happen let it happen now
If it's gonna happen let it happen now!
Like there's something not right?
I don't think I've been connected
But of all the dead volcanos on Earth you just happened to retch
And roll
Through mine
There were fistfuls of hair 'round the foot of my chair
And acres of screens before me
But breathing out I swear you were real
You were there
You were there
You were there
For a while
But I don't know what's real and what's going on
And I don't wanna be here when the sky is gone
(I just can't keep up with it, I)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
(Nothing's good, there's something more)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
It was somewhere to wink
It was slipped in my drink
A necropolis for the taking
But all the cities fall into war and there's nothing but knives
And fears
And forks
Seems the more I find out, the more I'm sure I'll be killed
And baby I get the feeling, there's somewhere dark and noble yet
And it's here (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin')
And it's here for a while (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin')
(I-I, I-I)
But I don't know what's real and what's going on
And I don't wanna be here when the sky is gone
(I just can't keep up with it, I)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
(Nothing's good, there's something more)
I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired
But I can hear them plunderin' the streets at night
You never shoulda told them what you had inside
And I don't want my children in an endless race
And I don't wanna wait to see what else they take
(So far I'm in love with you, I'm)
And all that matters now is that we don't let go
(And I can tell they're watching for it)
And you can be my wonder in my town of woe
(Time to let the genie out)
If it's gonna happen let it happen now
If it's gonna happen let it happen now!
Facts about Duet
✔️
Duet is written by Jeremy Joseph Pritchard, Alexander Kaines Robertshaw, Jonathan Joseph Higgs, Michael David Spearman.
✔️
It is first released on January 11, 2013 as part of Everything Everything's album "Arc" which includes 13 tracks in total. This song is the 3rd track on this album.
✔️
When we try to understand the message behind it, the song 'Duet' by Everything Everything portrays the disorientation and chaos of the contemporary world by means of metaphors such as 'dead volcanos' and 'necropolis' that give the impression of doom and the confusion between reality and fantasy. The main emotional states in the lyrics of the Duet are mainly angst, despair, reflection, heartbreak, and anger. However, through the song, one can also see the light that's connected to the disconnection and confusion themes; the loss of reality is intertwined with fear and danger, desperation with urgency and hope and support. The lyrics are filled with strong themes and images, some being violent ('knives and fears and forks'), some related to drug use ('slipped in my drink'), while others portray a state of despair and chaos. All these factors together, along with the mature and complex nature of the content, justify a PG-13 rating as a warning for parents about non-suitable nature for the younger audience.
