This Town
Her Majesty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

the sooner the better
but later than expected
arriving,the weather
and I just can't forget her

I'm trying I'm trying
but I'm sure its just denying
the fact that its all set
and I can't change nothing

this town is wearing me out
this town is wearing you out
this town is wearing us out
that's what this town is all about
that's what this town is all about

the sooner the better
happily ever after
no,there are no regrets here
if just time would move faster

I'm dying I'm trying
but I'm sure its all denying
tha fact that its all set
and I won't change nothing

this town is wearing me out
this town is wearing you out
this town is wearing us out
that's what this town is all about
that's what this town is all about

this town is wearing me out




this town is wearing you out
this town is wearing us out

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "This Town" by Her Majesty's describe the feeling of being stuck in a town that is no longer fulfilling or exciting. The singer wants things to change and to move on to something better, but feels as though they are unable to do so. The lines "the sooner the better but later than expected" and "happily ever after, no there are no regrets here/if just time would move faster" showcase this desire for change and impatience with the current situation.


Despite this desire for change, the singer also seems resigned to the fact that they are unable to do anything to change their circumstances. The lines "I'm trying, I'm trying but I'm sure it's just denying/the fact that it's all set and I can't change nothing" and "I'm dying, I'm trying but I'm sure it's all denying/the fact that it's all set and I won't change nothing" show a sense of hopelessness and defeat in the face of the town's stagnation.


Overall, "This Town" reflects the frustration and restlessness that can come with feeling trapped in a place that no longer provides fulfillment or opportunities for growth.

If anyone has hard time getting a hold of their songs, get at me.
Would be a shame if they were completely forgotten.
