Disarray
Code 4-15 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out on the street its pissing rain
Ignore the laughter and the blame
And every time you get up on your feet
They’re gonna try to knock you down
And every day with a heavier heart
You pick yourself up off the ground

They’re calling you a fool
Cuz you’re breaking all the rules
Hitting the smoke and missing school
Bury your misery

Social rhetoric and broken binds
The forsaken burdens of a solitary mind
Uncertainties surround your head and they don’t lie
You take in the world through jaded eyes but they don’t cry

They’re calling you a fool
Cuz you’re breaking all the rules
Hitting the smoke and missing school
Bury your misery
You’re out there on your own
You been drinking all alone
And now you’re never coming home
To face the disarray





They stuff their pockets with more than they can hold
A fool’s good fortune is never worth its weight in gold

Overall Meaning

In "Disarray" by Code 4-15, the lyrics paint a picture of a person who is facing adversity and trying to overcome it. The first verse describes being out on the street in bad weather, and despite people laughing and blaming, the person keeps getting up when knocked down. The chorus repeats the theme of being called a fool for not following the rules, and burying the misery with smoking and missing school. The second verse introduces the idea of social rhetoric and broken binds, suggesting that the person feels isolated and burdened by their own mind. Despite this, they see the world through jaded eyes and refuse to cry. Again, the chorus emphasizes the sense of being on one's own and never coming home to face the disarray. The final line of the song is a commentary on the greed of others who stuff their pockets with more than they can hold, suggesting that sometimes being considered a fool is better than chasing riches that are not worth it.


The lyrics of "Disarray" are relatable to many people who have faced difficult times and felt like outcasts. The repeated motif of being called a fool for breaking the rules could be interpreted as a criticism of societal norms that do not allow for individuality or creativity. The idea of burying one's misery through smoking and missing school suggests a coping mechanism that is not healthy, but might be the only option in certain circumstances. The line "you take in the world through jaded eyes but they don't cry" is particularly poignant, as it conveys a sense of disillusionment and resignation but also a strong will to persevere.

Out on the street its pissing rain
Rain is pouring down outside


Ignore the laughter and the blame
Don't pay attention to those who criticize you


And every time you get up on your feet
Every time you try to recover


They’re gonna try to knock you down
People will want to bring you down


And every day with a heavier heart
Every day that passes is harder than the last


You pick yourself up off the ground
You try to get back on your feet


They’re calling you a fool
People are mocking you


Cuz you’re breaking all the rules
Because you're going against what's expected of you


Hitting the smoke and missing school
Using drugs and skipping classes


Bury your misery
Try to hide your sadness


Social rhetoric and broken binds
Empty words and lost connections


The forsaken burdens of a solitary mind
The heavy weight on your mind when you feel alone


Uncertainties surround your head and they don’t lie
You're surrounded by doubts and fears that are real


You take in the world through jaded eyes but they don’t cry
You view the world with cynicism, but you don't let it show


You’re out there on your own
You're alone in your struggles


You been drinking all alone
You've been drowning your sorrows in alcohol


And now you’re never coming home
You won't be able to return to how things used to be


To face the disarray
To confront the chaos and turmoil in your life


They stuff their pockets with more than they can hold
They're greedy and take more than they need


A fool’s good fortune is never worth its weight in gold
Luck that's based on foolish behavior isn't truly valuable
