My boy, we don't see each other much
My boy, we don't see each other much

It'll take some time, but somewhere down the line

My boy, we don't see each other much

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Car Seat Headrest's song Twin Fantasy, particularly the repetition of the lines "My boy, we don't see each other much, it'll take some time, but somewhere down the line, we won't be alone," suggest a sense of longing and distance between two individuals.

1. My Boy (Twin Fantasy) 0:00

My boy, we don't see each other much
My boy, we don't see each other much
It'll take some time, but somewhere down the line
We won't be alone

2. Beach Life-In-Death 2:48

Part I
Last night I drove to Harper's Ferry and I thought about you
There were signs on the road that warned me of stop signs
The speed limit kept decreasing by ten
As we entered a town about halfway there
It was almost raining at the train station
We put our hoods on our heads at the train station
We threw rocks into the river
The river underneath the train tracks

And when the train came it was so big and powerful
When it came into the little station
I wanted to put my arms around it
But the conductor looked at me funny
So we had to say goodbye and leave
The Monopoly board still in the backseat
Took that nightmare left turn to get out of town
Ran into the decreasing speed limits again

What should I do? (Eat breakfast)
What should I do? (Eat lunch)
What should I do? (Eat dinner)
What should I do? (Go to bed)
Where can I go? (Go to the store)
Where can I go? (Apply for jobs)
Where can I go? (Go to a friend's)
Where can I go? (Go to bed)

I wrote "Beach Death" when I thought you were taken
I wrote "Beach Funeral" when I knew you were taken
I wrote "Beach Fagz"—well it wasn't about you
But it could've been, well no it couldn't have
I spent a week in Ocean City (I spent a week in Ocean City)
And came back to find you were gone (And came back to find you were gone)
I spent a week in Illinois (I spent a week in Illinois)
And came back to find you were still gone (And came back to find you were still gone)

I pretended I was drunk when I came out to my friends
I never came out to my friends
We were all on Skype
And I laughed and changed the subject
She said, "what's with this dog motif?"
I said, "do you have something against doooooooooogs?"

(That didn't happen... Oh God)

I am almost completely soulless
I am incapable of being human
I am incapable of being inhuman
I am living uncontrollably

It should be antidepression
As a friend of mine suggested
Because it's not the sadness that hurts you
It's the brain's reaction against it
It's not enough to love the unreal
I am inseparable from the impossible
I want gravity to stop for me
My soul yearns for a fugitive from the laws of nature
I want a cutscene, I want a cut from your face to my face
I want a cut, I want the next related video

I don't want to go insane
I don't want to have schizophrenia

The ocean washed over your grave
The ocean washed over your grave

Part II
Last night I dreamed he was trying to kill you
I woke up and I was trying to kill you
It's been a year since we first met
I don't know if we're boyfriends yet
Do you have any crimes that
We can use to pass the time I am
Running out of drugs to try and I
...

We said we hated humans
We wanted to be humans
We said we hated humans
We wanted to be humans

Get more groceries, get eaten
Get more groceries, get eaten
Get more groceries, get eaten

A book of Aubrey Beardsley art corrupted me in youth
And now I'm trapped inside my youth
And you're in love with late-stage youth
Thank god for the little things and, and
Fuck god that they're little things I am
Running out of prayers to sing and I
And pretty soon you'll find some nice young
Satanist with braces and one capital "o," significant Other
And you can take him home to your mother
And say "ma, this is my broTHER"

We said we hated humans
We wanted to be humans
We said we hated humans
We wanted to be humans

Get more groceries, get eaten
Get more groceries, get eaten
Get more groceries, get eaten
By the one you love
When they put their lips around you
You can feel their smile from the inside

Part III
Last night I dreamed he was trying to kill you
I woke up and I was trying to kill you
Your ears perked up, I perked up when your ears perked up
You were all looking around and I hoped it was for me
I hoped you were using your sonar systems for me

The ancients saw it coming
You can see that they tried to warn them
In the tales that they told their children
But they fell out of their heads in the morning
They said sex can be frightening
But the children were not listening
And the children cut out everything
Except for the kissing and the singing

When they finally found their home
At Walt Disney studios
And then everyone grew up
With their fundamental schemas fucked
But there are lots of fish left in the sea
There are lots of fish in business suits
That talk and walk on human feet
And visit doctors, have weak knees

Oh please let me join your cult
I'll paint my face in your colors
You have a real nice face
I had an early death

The ocean washed over your grave
The ocean washed open your grave
The ocean washed over your grave
The ocean washed open your grave
The ocean washed over your grave
(How's your face? How's your body?)
The ocean washed open your grave
The ocean washed over your grave
The ocean washed open your grave
(We're too scared to do shit!)

3. Stop Smoking 14:57

Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
And we don't want you to die
We don't want you to die
We don't want you to die
We don't want you to die
We don't want you to die
We don't want you to die
We don't want you to die

4. Sober to Death 16:24

Lovely, lovely
In your jeans, frenzy
Another movie that I didn't watch with you (Oh, oh, oh)
Another movie and I'm gonna have to move (No, no, no)
That final terror is in your house somewhere
Hiding in boxes, behind closed doorways
Out from the forest adjacent to your garage
I've seen its marks at the corner of your eyes
Nothing works
Nothing works for everyone
Good stories are bad lives
Good stories are bad lives

Take your hands off your neck and hold
On to the ghost of my body
You know that good lives make bad stories
You can text me
When punching mattresses gets old
Don't think it'll always be this way
Not comforted by anything I say
We were wrecks before we crashed into each other

Such a good idea
If it turns you on
We have breakdowns
And sometimes we don't have breakdowns
I want to hear you going psycho
If you're going psycho I wanna hear
Every conversation just ends with you screaming
Not even words, just ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahhh
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh

Take my hands off your neck and hold
Onto the ghost of your body
I know that good lives make bad stories
You can text me
When punching mattresses gets old
What if it'll always be this way
Not comforted by anything you say
We were wrecks before we crashed into each other

Don't worry, you and me won't be alone no more
(x12)

5. Nervous Young Inhumans 21:27

You should've seen my cursive back then
Every letter was above the line
My Ps and Qs raised their stems
So nothing crossed beneath
I'm a little better now

You galvanistic young boy
You galvanistic young man
You galvanistic young inhuman
You understand

Art gets what it wants and art gets what it deserves

Most people are jokes but you're so real
Most of the time that I use the word "you"
Well you know that I'm mostly singing about you

You swore you'd never use
The face that your ex invented
So let's meet up in
Uncanny valley

You galvanistic young boy
You galvanistic young man
You galvanistic young inhuman
You understand

You'll get what you want and you'll get what you deserve
You’ll get what you want and you’ll get what you deserve

Earlier in the song I used the term "galvanistic," and galvanism is the concept, uh, the obsolete scientific theory that there is a kind of electricity flowing through our bloodstreams, and that was our life force. I used the term because I came across it in, uh, Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", and that book is sort of an exploration of the theme of creating a character, of making up a person. So I used the term "galvanistic" to allude to that book as a sort of a symbol of how I, like, created you as a character. I'm pretending that I know a lot more about you than I actually do, and also to refer to the fact that I've fall—fallen in love with the characters you've created in, uh, your body of work

This is the part of the song where I start to regret writing it

6. Bodys 25:42

That's not what I meant to say at all
I mean, I'm sick of meaning, I just wanna hold you
But that's not what I wanted to say at all
I mean, I'm sick of meaning, I just wanna hold you

Is it the Chorus yet?
No, it's just the building of the verse
So when the chorus does come it'll be more rewarding.

I would speak to you in song
But you can't sing (as far as I'm aware)
Though everyone can sing (as you are well aware)
I keep so quiet it's hard to tell I'm alive
Everybody is swinging their hips
Everybody is giving the waitress tips
Everybody's dancing all of the dances
Everybody's dancing every dance now

Those are you got some nice shoulders
I'd like to put my hands around them
I'd like to put my hands around them
I have enough trouble controlling my own limbs
Stealing alcohol from our parents and grandparents
There's no devil on one shoulder and angel on the other
They're just two normal people

(These are the people that I get drunk with
These are the people that I fell in love with
These are the people that I get drunk with
These are the people that I fell in love with)

But if you keep giving me your empty hands
Man, I am tempted to say
Let's piss up another rope, boys
This one has grown old and bitter
Well, so what? So what?
We're young
We're thin (most of us)
We're alive (most of us)

Don't you realize our bodies could fall apart at any second?
I am terrified your body could fall apart at any second
You got those are some nice shoulders
I'd like to put my hands around them
I'd like to put my hands around them
We can get real horny and keep messing around
We can keep real quiet, won't be making no sounds
I'll try my best not touch your face
Next time can we please meet at my place
(We can get real messy and keep messing around
We can keep real quiet, won't be making no sounds
I'll try my best not to touch your face
Next time can we please meet at my)
And I know that I don't talk a lot
But I know that you don't care a lot
As long as we move our bodies around a lot
We'll forget that we forgot how to talk

When we dance
When we
When we dance
When we

Don't you realize our bodies could fall apart at any second?
I am terrified your body could fall apart at any second
Those are you got some nice shoulders
I'd like to put my hands around them
I'd like to put my hands around them
When we dance
When we dance
When we dance
When we dance
(We can get real messy and keep messing around
We can keep real quiet, won't be making no sounds
I'll try my best not to touch your face
Next time can we please meet at my)

7. Cute thing 32:00

I got so fucking romantic
I apologize
Lemme light your cigarette
Come visit Kansas for a week of debauchery
Songs and high fives and weird sex

Cute thing
Don't be rude, thing
Hot thing
It was nothing

God
Give me Dan Bejar's voice
And John Entwistle's stage presence
I will be your rock, God, when you're rolling the dice

I got so fucking romantic
I apologize
Lemme smoke your weed, no wait
Healthy minds make sexy bodies
Let us touch so much of ourselves together

Cute thing (cute thing)
Don't be rude, thing (don't be rude, thing)
Hot thing (hot thing)
It was nothing (it was nothing)

Dog
Give me one little chance
I can make you a man
I will be your rock, Dog (woof woof)
When you're rolling your eyes

He died in an explosion
Of mixed media and poorly written reviews
And some stammering drunk who tried to tell him how good his shit was
That is some good shit, man!
I accidentally spoke your first name aloud
Trying to make it fit in the lyrics of "Ana Ng"
Worked like a charm

We're getting old
When will we walk in each other's majestic presence?
Listen, hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say if I was John Linnell
Or trying to be John Linnell

I am love
I would sleep naked
Next to you naked
I am love
I am love
I would sleep naked
Next to you naked
I am love
I am love
Like some Stanley Kubrick porn director
Casting couples
Eyes wide shut for a reason

8. High To Death 37:22

I fell over
I fell onto the ground
I wish I was sober
I can't get up off the ground-round-round-

When I closed my eyes
And I thought I was blind
It's the middle of the night
And I'll never be alright again

And this wallpaper
Keeps going round the room
Keeps going round the room
And I follow it around the room
And I follow it around the room
And I follow it around the room

Keep smoking, I love you
Keep smoking, I love you
Keep smoking, I still love you
But I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die
I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die
I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die
I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die

(You and Jane can’t keep me in the paper anymore)

And I sat there on the steps
Considering death
There were only seconds left of the night

And I said hell is the sun
Burning forever at the center of things
A ball on fire at the center of things
A ball on fire at the center of things
A brain on fire at the center of things
A brain on fire at the center of things

And the sea isn't green
And I love this dream
But how exactly can we
Escape from behind the wall

9. Famous Prophets (Minds) 43:38

Apologies to future mes and yous
But I can't help feeling like we're through
The ripping of the tape hurts my ears
In my years, I have never seen anyone quit quite like you do

Twin bruises on my shins
From where I kicked the back of the seat in
They meant what I went through for you
But now they're fading, now they're gone

These teenage hands will never touch yours again
But I remember you
You had a body
You had hands and arms and legs and et cetera

Stuck in a body, stuck in a mind
Stuck in one body, stuck in one mind
For the rest of your life
This is the rest of your life

Why did God throw you down upon my head
Making shock yellow light emit from my nostrils
And smoke pour from my ears and my hair stand up on end
I was fried alive and now I'm target for next time

Leviathan was powerful and inevitable
(Leviathan was powerful and inevitable)
I fell in love with my fate as it crushed me to death

We gotta go back, we gotta go back
(x8)

We gotta go back-

Nacham!

Don't get too impressed
You might lose your breath
Don't predict your death
'Cause I like you the best

Don't you fall apart
You might lose my heart
You know I love your art

For three transgressions of Wurtz
And for four, I will not revoke the punishment
For three transgressions of Will
And for four, I will not revoke the punishment

For three transgressions of Wurtz
(The ocean washed over your grave)
And for four, I will not revoke the punishment
(x8)


For three transgressions of Wurtz
(The ocean washed over your grave)
And for four, I will not revoke the punishment
(The ocean washed open your grave)
For sending me an invitation
For selling yourself pardons
For three transgressions of Will
(The ocean washed over your grave)
And for four, I will not revoke the punishment
(The ocean washed open your grave)
For falling in love too hard
You'll never set foot in this town again

For three transgressions of Wurtz
(The ocean washed over your grave)
And for four, I will not revoke the punishment
(The ocean washed open your grave)
Why did you tell me to come in the first place?
Why did you tell me to come in the first place?
Why did you tell me to come in the first place?
(The ocean washed over your grave)
Why did you tell me to come in the first place?
(The ocean washed open your grave)
Why did you tell me, why did you tell me, why did you?
Why did? Why did? Why, why did ya?

He said, "Go out and stand on the mountain
Before the Lord
For the Lord is about to pass by."
Now there was a great wind
So strong that it was splitting mountains
And breaking rocks in pieces before the Lord
But the Lord was not in the wind
And after the wind an earthquake
But the Lord was not in the earthquake;
And after the earthquake a fire
But the Lord was not in the fire;
And after the fire, a sound of sheer silence

10. Twin Fantasy (Those Boys) 53:52​

I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to
I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to

The show ain't over
They'll keep on going
They'll keep on laughing
And fucking around

Off into the distance
Those two brothers
Those two lovers
And their smooth-cocked adventures

I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to
I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to

(I haven't been outside, I haven't been outside
I haven't been outside, I haven't been outside)

They just want to be one
Walk off into the sun
They're not kissing
And they're not fucking
They're just having fun

I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to
I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to

They were connected
At the back of the head
They got a conduit
Their minds are the same

They were connected
At the back of the head
They got a conduit
Their minds are the same

(I haven't been outside, I haven't been outside)

This is the part of the song where Will gives up. He dissociates himself from his own romance until it becomes just a fantasy. This is not something that could happen to him; this is something that takes place only in his mind. But he blinks now, and shakes himself awake. He has rejoined society. Come, dear children, call no more. He has only lyrics now

When I come back you'll still be here
When I come back you'll still be here
(x6)
