Everything You Do
Good Shoes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything you say
Always ends up turning out the same
Sometimes I, I find I, I see things, another way entirely
Couldn't you see?
Couldn't you do?
The lyrics to Good Shoes's song "Everything You Do" reflect the singer's frustration with a person in their life who always seems to end up in the same situations or repeating the same actions. The opening lines powerfully convey this sense of monotony, as the singer observes that everything this person does and says always turns out the same. It's clear that this repetition is weighing on the singer, who then admits that sometimes they do try to see things from a different perspective, but ultimately they remain stuck in the same patterns.
The frustration the singer feels towards this person is further emphasized in the chorus when they ask, "Couldn't you see? Couldn't you do? Something more than they did for you." Here we see that the singer not only wants this person to break free from their repetitive cycles, but they also want them to take action and do something different altogether. It seems as though the singer has grown tired of watching this person stay stagnant, and now wants to challenge them to break the cycle and try something new.
Overall, the lyrics to "Everything You Do" express a desire for change and growth, as well as a frustration with those who seem unwilling or unable to break free from their own limitations.
