...And The Hangnails Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When we start to fight and you play your stupid games,
The frustration sets in and I just can't think straight.
I know that tomorrow will bring a new day.
We'll be friends 'till the end, but it won't last that long.
What is there to fear, when tomorrow brings a new day?
Don't let the sun go down on your anger.
When morning brings the sun, I feel better than before.
Though last night went all wrong, I can't dwell upon that.

If we can't work it out then I will take the blame.

We'll be right where we were, another fight's all the same.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Yours" by ...And The Hangnails speaks about a relationship that has its challenges and disagreements. The opening line talks about the frustration that sets in during an argument with someone who plays games. This can be a strain on the relationship and cause the singer to feel mentally blocked. However, the singer knows that tomorrow is a new day and the relationship can still be saved. Even if there are fights, the relationship between these two people will not last forever, which shows a sense of hopelessness.

The lyrics also take on a hopeful tone when it talks about not being afraid of the next day as it brings opportunities to start anew. The sun rising symbolizes a new beginning, and it's something to be happy about. The second verse continues with this sense of hopefulness where the singer talks about feeling better in the morning, despite the previous night going wrong. The singer is trying not to dwell on the fights that have happened and is willing to take the blame if a resolution can't be reached. The song ends with the suggestion that the trajectory of the relationship will remain the same regardless of whether or not arguments are resolved, indicating a certain resignation on the part of the singer.

Overall, the lyrics of the song convey the inherent tension of a relationship's ups and downs. There's a sense of hope mixed in with uncertainty that characterizes the struggles of communication and understanding between two people.
