Flair
Josh Rouse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You want me to, I will
The older I get, I spill blame
And I lived there six months
The past is all I'm driven for
I'm driven for

And I can't recall a name
Faces are the same to me
The same you see
And I would fake it for you
There's no where near the truth to say
The truth to say

Silly simple lies
They made a human being
Out of you
And I can sympathize
I've always been the one that's there with you
Don't
Lose that
Flair
Don't (and I can sympathize)
Lose that (I've always been the one that's there)
Flair (for you)
If you want me to, I will (flair)
Flair
Flair




Flair
Want me to

Overall Meaning

In Josh Rouse's song Flair, the lyrics seem to speak about a person who is struggling with memories of the past and trying to move forward. The opening lines of "You want me to, I will" suggest a willingness to please and accommodate others, even if it means sacrificing one's own needs or desires. The following line "The older I get, I spill blame" could be referring to a sense of regret or guilt about past actions. It could also suggest a tendency to blame oneself for things that may not be entirely one's fault.


The next lines "And I lived there six months, the past is all I'm driven for, I'm driven for" seem to reinforce the theme of dwelling on the past. The reference to living somewhere for six months could suggest a temporary residence or a period of transition. However, the focus on the past is all-consuming for the singer, indicating an inability to move on from certain memories or experiences.


The lines "And I can't recall a name, faces are the same to me, the same you see" could suggest a feeling of detachment or disconnection from others. The inability to recall names or differentiate between faces could imply a sense of isolation or loneliness. The subsequent lines "And I would fake it for you, there's nowhere near the truth to say, the truth to say" could suggest a desire to please others even if it means being dishonest or insincere. It could also indicate a difficulty in expressing one's true feelings or emotions.


The refrain of "Don't lose that flair" seems to be a message of encouragement or support to someone else. The lines "Silly simple lies, they made a human being out of you, and I can sympathize, I've always been the one that's there with you" suggest empathy and understanding for the struggles of another person. The final repetition of "Flair" seems to suggest a repetition of the message of support and encouragement from the refrain.
