A whole night,
Of talking in circles,
Searching for reasons to save us,
And keep it all painless.
All the lies you`ve had to swallow
Just to face the World tomorrow.
Blowing bubbles it`s the final straw,
They never last too long but for a moment,
There`s perfection floating through an open door,
But if you try to hold it then it turns to nothing.
Your whole world,
Can turn on a moment,
Some things can come back and haunt you,
But they`re too late to warn you.
Drinking in the dead of night,
Tobacco clouds that sting your eyes,
You`ve locked your feelings deep inside,
Growing pains that never die,
You need to sweep the picture clean,
And start to dream another dream,
And end this foggy yesterday that,
Still reminds you.
All the lies you`ve had to swollow,
Just to face the World tomorrow
What is the meaning behind Blowing Bubbles lyrics?
When we try to interpret the meaning, the Lightning Seeds' 'Blowing Bubbles' portrays the temporary existence of happiness and the internal battle with personal truths, through the use of the metaphor of bubbles. The lyrics of 'Blowing Bubbles' mostly highlight the themes of anxiety, introspection, despair, love, and anger. Besides, the song points out the necessity of lying and fighting, impermanence of joy, emotional suppression, and yearning for transformation. The lyrics exhibit the themes of emotional turmoil, deceit, and inability to cope with the situation, which could perhaps appeal to the older audience only. The repetitive use of 'blowing bubbles' and 'the final straw' indicates an aura of short-lived escapism followed by disappointment, which might be strong for the kids. Moreover, the reference to 'drinking in the dead of night' and 'tobacco clouds that sting your eyes' suggests drug use, which is a PG-13 factor.
