Loose Change
Alanna Matty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And if you ever felt the same, well
Would you be too afraid to say it?
And if I ever told you why I
Could not say goodbye, I
Wouldn′t even try, I'd
Just give myself away

And if you ever felt the same, well
Would you be too afraid to say
Or would you just run away with me
If I told ′bout the days that we could spend together

And why must I stay the same
While everyone around me changes?
Is it expected of me to be that much better?
Better
Whoa-oa

Did you ever lose your brain, I say
Did you ever feel a change in you?
Did you ever want to know your place?
Did you ever want to feel displaced?
Did you ever want to know your face?
Did you ever want to be disgraced?
Did you ever want to run?
Did you run?

And why must I stay the same
While everyone around me changes?
Is it expected of me to be that much better?
Better

I've got
One more thing I've got to say to you
Give me a chance, I′ve got to have a few
And can you help me now?
Can you help me now?
′Cause I gotta know
Why must I stay the same
While everyone around me changes?
Why must I stay the same
While everyone else can change?

And why must I stay the same
While everyone around me (no, I have)
Changes? (changed, and if you felt)
Is it expected of me to be (the same, oh)
That much better? (Would you run)
Better (away with me, and)

And why must I stay the same
While everyone around me changes?
Is it expected of me to be that much better? (Oh, would you run away)

Oh, would you run away with me?
Oh, would you run away with me?
Oh, would you run away with me?
Oh, would you run away with me? (Oh, would you run)
Oh, would you run away with me? (Away)
Oh, would you run away with me? (Would you run away)




Oh, would
Oh, would you run away?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Alanna Matty's song "Loose Change" seem to express the singer's desire for companionship and connection, while also exploring the complexity of personal growth and change. The song raises questions about the fear of vulnerability and the struggle to maintain self-identity in the face of societal expectations.


The first verse starts with a rhetorical question, "And if you ever felt the same, well / Would you be too afraid to say it?" which seems to suggest that the singer (Matty) is struggling to express herself to others. She then goes on to say that even if she did share her feelings, she wouldn't try to keep anything back, but "just give [her]self away." This line suggests that the singer is tired of holding back her emotions and wants to be vulnerable with others.


In the next verse, the singer asks another rhetorical question, "And why must I stay the same / While everyone around me changes?" This line suggests that the singer is feeling frustrated with her lack of personal growth, while those around her are changing and evolving. She then asks if it is expected of her to be better than she is, implying that she feels pressure to conform to certain societal expectations.


The chorus is repeated several times throughout the song, with the lyric "Why must I stay the same / While everyone around me changes?" serving as the central theme. The song seems to suggest that change is difficult, but necessary for personal growth and fulfillment.
