PORCUPINE TREE

- Sentimental Lyrics

I never wanna be old
And I don't want dependents
It's no fun to be told
That you can't blame your parents anymore.

I'm finding it hard to hang from a star
I don't wanna be...
Never wanna be old.

Sullen and bored the kids stay
And in this way wish away each day
Stoned in the mall the kids play
And in this way wish away each day

I don't really know
If I care what is normal
And I'm not really sure
If the pills I've been taking are helping

I'm wasting my life
Hurting inside
I don't really know
And I'm not really sure...

x2
Sullen and bored the kids stay
And in this way wish away each day
Stoned in the mall the kids play
And in this way wish away each day

What is the meaning behind Sentimental lyrics?


When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the song “Sentimental” is sung by the band Porcupine Tree and it is a nostalgic reflection of the difficulties of youth, the expression of a wish to escape aging and drug reliance, and at the same time a questioning of the efficacy of those norms and medications. The constant feeling of being down and being bored, and the desire to fast forward each day symbolizes a great disenchantment as well as a yearning for something more significant in one's life. The words of the song Sentimental are the ones to mostly convey angst, musing, love loss, despair, and social critique. Besides that, the song points out the struggle between youth and boredom, identity, and fear of aging, and dependence. The lyrics suggest many tough themes including boredom, dependence, and drug use (the latter implied by 'stoned') that are possibly not appropriate for kids below 13 years. The allusions to taking pills and feeling like one's life is being wasted could be interpreted as dark subjects that require parental supervision.
