Remade Horizon
Dirty Projectors Lyrics

In the backyard
Starting in the singer's own backyard

In the living room
In the place where life is lived

Residential neighborhood
In a place where people live in houses, surrounded by other people who live in houses

I've come for you
The singer is seeking someone in the residential neighborhood

In the margins
On the edges of society

Of the freeway
The busy road that represents a fast-paced, materialistic way of life

I have sat alone and wondered
The singer has taken a moment to reflect on life in this fast-paced world, realizing the person they seek is missing

Where are you?
Questioning where their partner is

Yeah I want a
The singer has a strong desire for something

Remade horizon
A new beginning, a fresh start to life with an emphasis on the future, away from the past

In the medicine
Reference to the many parts of life, such as the importance of good health and the act of getting married

In the weddings
Celebrations of love and unity

Like the cormorant in evening
Connection to nature and the darkening of the day, which could represent a time of transition

I see her silhouette
The person that the singer is seeking is like a shadow

In the market
A place where goods and services are sold

In the parking lot
A place where cars are left before entering a store or mall

In the uniform
Uniformity that represents the loss of individuality and the conformity of society

You're nowhere now
The person the singer is looking for is not present in these everyday, mundane places

Toss aside
The singer wants to discard the past

The mirrored life
Disdain for a life spent solely in the pursuit of wealth and status

Echo it out
Repeat it so that others can hear the message the singer is sending

Yeah I want a
Restate of the strong desire for a fresh start

Remade horizon
Continuation of the desire for a fresh start
