Uniform
Bad Loud Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is the plan to save us all
And we don't care how that makes you feel (repeat)
This is a slipshod plan
This is a way to feel again
And we don't care how it makes us look (repeat)
The weight of the world is new
The red skies that once were blue
When it all goes down
You will be in a cow-town
I will be waiting
Somewhere in some quiet countdown
Listen close, this is the sound
This is a faint design
This is the one to follow blind
And you don't wanna think it through (repeat)
This is a faulty plan
This is a war without an end
Keep your children in uniform (repeat)
When it all falls down
They will be in cow-town
You will be waiting
Somewhere in some penitent countdown
What comes around goes around
The weight of the world is new
The flower of doubt it blooms
The death of all that's true alive in you
The lyrics to Bad Loud's "Uniform" depict a desperate call for a plan to save humanity, despite not caring how it may make others feel or look. The song speaks to the weight of the world and how the once blue skies are now red, reminding listeners that in the end, they may be left waiting somewhere in some quiet or penitent countdown.
The lyrics suggest a sense of urgency, a need for a plan that may not be perfect but is still worth following blindly.

The flower of doubt blooms, and the death of all that's true is alive in the listener, creating a sense of despair and confusion.
Overall, "Uniform" offers a bleak but honest look at the world, acknowledging its flaws and encouraging listeners to take action and seek out a plan, even if it means sacrificing their own thoughts and beliefs.
