Untitled
Oddly Shrugs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Catch me when I fall
You don't know who we are
Wonder who you call
You're driving alone
You're hearing my song
Decide to be stong
Be right or be wrong
Be who you are
Just be who you are
The last thing that I saw
Catch me when I fall
You don't know who we are
Wonder who you call
You're driving alone
You're hearing my song
Decide to be stong
Be right or be wrong
Be who you are
Just be who you are
The lyrics of Oddly Shrugs' song Untitled seem to be centered around personal identity and staying true to oneself. The opening lines, "The last thing that I saw, catch me when I fall" may evoke a fleeting image of someone falling, but it could also be metaphorical. It could mean that the singer is in a vulnerable state, unsure of what will happen next, and perhaps reaching out for someone who can help them. This is then followed by "You don't know who we are, wonder who you call," which suggests a sense of ambiguity or anonymity, and potentially the fear of being misunderstood or judged.
The subsequent verses carry a similar theme of personal struggle and self-discovery. "You're driving alone, you're hearing my song," indicates that the singer is on their own journey, but with the comfort of music. It encourages the listener to "be strong, be right or be wrong," emphasizing the importance of standing up for oneself and holding onto one's convictions. The line "Be who you are, just be who you are" further emphasizes the importance of individuality and authenticity, and the message seems to be one of self-acceptance and personal growth.
Overall, Untitled seems to be a melancholic yet empowering track that encourages listeners to stay true to themselves in the face of internal and external struggles. The repetitive nature of the lyrics and simple melody reinforce the song's message of perseverance and endurance in the face of adversity.
