Friends
Little Sea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In check
Time to let go
Ruby red lipstick
Smoke rises like a signal
Stealing half of the day just to spend at night
Stealing hearts when the break under UV lights
Talk
Talk
Talk
I've got friends
Who have got friends
Talkin bout the weekend
We make plans
Just to make plans
But we never keep them
I've got friends
Who have got friends
Talkin bout the weekend
We make plans
Just to make plans
But we never keep them
How you dress I'm impressed
But you acting like you don't care
ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooo-oooh
Is your smile out of style
Just like the brands that you don't wear
ooo-oo-oo-oo-ooo-oooh
Stealing half of the day just to spend at night
Hey! Hey!
Stealing hearts when the break under UV lights
Cause their lungs are full of awkward
Cough
Cough
Coughs
I've got friends
Who have got friends
Talkin bout the weekend
We make plans
Just to make plans
But we never keep them
I've got friends
Who have got friends
Talkin bout the weekend
We make plans
Just to make plans
But we never keep them
So go and tell all your friends
Lonely is the latest trend
So go and tell all your friends
Lonely is the latest trend
So go and tell all your friends
Lonely is the latest trend
So go and tell all your friends
I've got friends
Who have got friends
Talkin bout the weekend
We make plans
Just to make plans
But we never keep them
I've got friends
Who have got friends
Talkin bout the weekend
We make plans
Just to make plans
But we never keep them
So go and tell all your friends
(I've got friends, who have got friends, talking bout the weekend)
Lonely is the latest trend
So go all tell all your friends
(We make plans, just to make plans, but we never keep them)
Lonely is the latest trend
So go all tell all your friends
The song "Friends" by Little Sea is a song about the superficiality of social relationships and the desire to fit in with a certain crowd. The first verse describes someone dressed in a particular style and trying to impress others but ultimately just blending in with everyone else. The second verse talks about stealing half of the day just to spend time at night and stealing hearts in a shallow way under UV lights. The chorus talks about the futile planning of social events that never actually happen and the sad truth that loneliness has become a trend.
The lyrics go deeper to address the fact that people are just so busy making plans and trying to fit in with each other that they forget about actually connecting on a meaningful level. The song seems to be urging people to break out of their superficiality and to reconnect with each other on a deeper level.
Overall, the song is a sad commentary on the state of modern relationships and the vast emptiness that can sometimes be hidden underneath the surface.
