Fingers
It looks sad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been sleepwalking, I′m falling again
I felt your fingers touch my skin
Your fingers touched my skin
I'm glad you feel it
That's why I tell you all the time
I tell you that you′re right
I felt your hands on my neck
I felt the knife go in
You cut me up inside
So I spewed out all I know
Don′t worry I've done yeah I′ve done this all before
Oh my head where you taking me again
Where you taking me again
Will you be there in the end
Will you take me there again
I must be daydreaming again
Your fingers touched my skin
I'm daydreaming again
Yeah I′m glad you feel it
I'm daydreaming again
Your fingers touched my skin
You′re coming home again
I'm glad you feel it
You're in my arms again
Your fingers touched my skin
I′m daydreaming again
Your fingers touched my skin
I′m daydreaming again.
The song "Fingers" by It Looks Sad is a hauntingly beautiful representation of the emotions that come with being consumed by a daydream. The lyrics describe the feeling of being lost in thought, and not being able to distinguish between reality and imagination. The song also portrays the experience of being in a relationship that is both emotionally and physically distressing, where the singer has lost all sense of control over their own desires and actions. The line "I felt your fingers touch my skin" is particularly powerful, as it indicates that the singer has lost all sense of personal boundaries and is completely consumed by their feelings for the other person. The line "I felt the knife go in" also suggests a reference to self-harm or psychological pain, adding to the perceptible sadness of the song.
Overall, the song seems to be about the struggle to find balance between our innermost desires and the reality of the world around us. It is a deeply introspective and emotional journey that is beautifully conveyed through its lyrics and melody.

@r_howell9995
this band is very underrated. they deserve to be a lot more popular than they are
@franciscorafael1256
R_Howell I couldn't agree more
@closetfrerardway7698
R_Howell Yeah but then again it's special because the fan base is so small.
@barbie7811
That's how most good bands are.
@maridel3112
R_Howell i agree!
@iandt1367
" It's special because the fanbase is small".
2018 and still getting to read this "underground syndrome" bullshit.
The music is good because it's good, not because it's unpopular or popular.
@nickink60
