Creature
It looks sad Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got some things to do
But I don't want to do 'em
I got some things to say
I will never say 'em to your face
I lost my lungs,
I don't really need 'em
I lost my heart,
I don't really need it anymore
I am in love with somebody
And guess what? It's not you
It's not you
You are in love with somebody
Yea, you love yourself so well
Love yourself so well
(?) and sweaty palms
Black water and half-clear lungs
And I know I'm not going home
Broken bottles and dirty dishes
Acid (?) in your kitchen
You know I'm not going home
I am in love with somebody
And guess what? It's not you
It's not you
You are love with somebody
Yea, you love yourself so well
Love yourself so well
There's someone else
They love them well
Someone else
They love them.
I got some things to do
But I don't want to do 'em
I got some things to say
I will never say 'em to your face
I got some things to do
But I don't want to do 'em
I got some things to say
I will never say 'em to your face
To your face
There's someone else
They love them well




This is someone else
They love them.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to It Looks Sad's song "Creature" convey a sense of detachment and disconnection from oneself and one's surroundings. The opening lines suggest a lack of motivation or willingness to engage with the world, while the lines "I lost my lungs, I don't really need 'em / I lost my heart, I don't really need it anymore" imply a deliberate shedding of emotional baggage. The refrain of "I am in love with somebody / And guess what? It's not you" adds to the theme of distance, as the singer acknowledges a separate bond while rejecting a potential or past connection with the addressee. The second verse continues this sense of isolation with images of physical discomfort ("Black water and half-clear lungs") and the refrain of "You love yourself so well" contrasting with the singer's distance from self and others.


Overall, "Creature" seems to be exploring the idea of being cut off from one's own emotions and relationships, and the ways in which people cope with that separation. The repeated lines of "There's someone else / They love them well" provide a sort of resolution, suggesting that the singer has come to terms with their own sense of disconnection and recognizes the value in others' self-love and attachment.
