Catchy hooks are built of tight drumming, sleepy bass lines, rhythmic guitar, accented by the occassional tasty chop or solo, and glossy and varied keyboard elements, all cinched in by perfect vocal arrangements and performances which display experienced use of range, style and technique. The more-than-adept musicianship is carried home by deceptively simple yet convicting and relateable lyrics, which manage to bring a smirk to your face one moment, only to melt it off the next; sarcasm, anguish, humor and hard-earned wisdom all play off each other seamlessly.

Me & Everyone I Know
House Of Fools Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Will somebody
Come and rescue me
Take me to the other side
Of this town
Where we all run free

Someone come and rescue me
Open up my eyes somebody

Try convincing me
Tell me that there's another sight
Where we all see what we want to see
'Cause I'm dying to believe

I'll keep listening
Yeah, I'll be listening
This time I think I'm over my head
I don't think, I'll ever make it out
No, no, no

I've fallen further over the years
There's really not that much I care about
Oh I'm falling down and it shows
That I'm not alone
It's me and everyone that I know

How many times
Will we come undone
It doesn't seem so long ago
We never wanted to be alone
Fill me, fill me again

I'll be listening
Yeah, I'll be listening
This time I think, I'm over my head
I don't think, I'll ever make it out
No, no, no

I've fallen farther over the years
I can't think of anything I really care about
I've fallen down and it shows

I am not alone
It's me and everyone I know

Overall Meaning

The song "Me & Everyone I Know" by House of Fools highlights the feeling of being lost and needing help to find one's way. The first verse starts with a plea for someone to rescue the singer and take him to the other side of town where he can be free. He is looking for a new perspective on life, and he wants someone to convince him that there is hope and a brighter future. The chorus expresses the singer's determination to keep listening and trying to find a way out of his troubles. However, the second verse indicates that he has been struggling for a while now and has fallen farther down the hole. He can't think of anything he cares about and feels alone, but he realizes that he is not the only one who feels this way. In the end, he shares his struggles with "everyone he knows," hoping to find some comfort in their shared experiences.

Overall, the song is about searching for hope in dark times and realizing that we are not alone in our struggles. It is a reminder that we need each other to get through the tough times and that there is always a reason to keep going. The song's melody is upbeat and catchy, which contrasts with the lyrics' somber message, creating a powerful emotional effect.
