Figure It Out
Royal Blood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just a kid like me
Trying to cut some teeth
Trying to figure it out
Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
I'm still in here trying to figure it out
Getting hard to sleep
Blood is in my dreams
Love is killing me
Trying to figure it out
Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
I'm still in here trying to figure it out
I let it go, 'cause I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to talk it out
I said I'd go, put myself on show
But I'm still trying to figure it out
I broke my shoe, tripped and fell on you
But you didn't know I planned it out
I said I'd go, yeah, I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to figure it out, oh
Nothing here to see
Just a kid like me
Trying to cut some teeth
Trying to figure it out
Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
I'm still in here trying to figure it out
I let it go, 'cause I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to talk it out
I said I'd go, put myself on show
But I'm still trying to figure it out
I broke my shoe, tripped and fell on you
But you didn't know I planned it out
I said I'd go, yeah I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to figure it out
Yeah
The lyrics to Royal Blood's "Figure It Out" are about a person who is struggling to navigate their feelings for someone they are infatuated with.

Throughout the song, the singer expresses their frustration with the object of their affection, describing them as a source of both heartache and inspiration. The lyrics touch on themes like unrequited love, longing, and the struggle to find one's identity and purpose.
The chorus is particularly powerful, repeating the phrase "trying to figure it out" as a kind of mantra.
