Acustic
Living Room Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The day that I saw so clear yerterday
Today just turned into the blackest sky
Full fill with bunch of fake things
That always make me hurt...
Crying alone in the darkness
The only way that I could do...

Cause I forgot when I started to smile
Only tears that I can feel right now
You broke my heart into pieces. . alone!!
When I start to runaway,
From this fact that I got now
I face this deep edge, fall inside
I'm full with scars, hurt and fragile
I can' hide it from my eyes...
You hurt me again and again!
Now you say that you love me too...
That it doesn't seen like what you do
See in my heart
You never gonna see
Love anymore
Don't be sad
If I leave you
Someday all alone

Can you understand me?
Can you know what I want?




Can you feel this pain inside?
Can you see that I love you?!!

Overall Meaning

"Acustic" by Living Room is a song that beautifully captures the pain of a love that has been broken. The song begins with the singer reminiscing about the past where everything was clear to him. However, now, things have turned around and he finds himself in a place where he is surrounded by fake things that hurt him. He is left crying alone in the darkness as it is the only way he can cope. He remembers his past smiles only to realize that at present, all he feels is tears. The singer acknowledges that the person he loves has broken his heart and left him alone to deal with the consequences.


As the song progresses, the singer dives deeper into the pain he is feeling. He is fragile, hurt, and full of scars that he cannot hide. He is at the edge of a deep abyss, and he falls inside it. The pain inflicted on him by his lover seems to only be getting worse. The singer appears to be at his breaking point and questions if his lover still loves him. He begs his lover to try to understand his pain and love him in return. He decides to take a step back and leave his lover - he says that someday he will be alone, but he does not want his lover to be sad.

The day that I saw so clear yerterday
I once had a clear vision of my life, but it now seems like a distant memory


Today just turned into the blackest sky
My present is filled with darkness, and I cannot see a way out


Full fill with bunch of fake things
My life is filled with superficial things that give me no happiness


That always make me hurt...
These things only bring me pain and sadness


Crying alone in the darkness
I am consumed by sadness and have no one to turn to


The only way that I could do...
I am forced to cry alone and deal with my pain by myself


Cause I forgot when I started to smile
I can't remember a time when I felt truly happy


Only tears that I can feel right now
All I can feel at this moment is sadness and tears


You broke my heart into pieces. . alone!!
You hurt me deeply, and I am left to pick up the pieces of my shattered heart by myself


When I start to runaway,
Sometimes I try to escape from my pain


From this fact that I got now
But the reality of my situation always catches up to me


I face this deep edge, fall inside
I feel like I am teetering on the edge of a dangerous precipice


I'm full with scars, hurt and fragile
I am deeply wounded and vulnerable


I can' hide it from my eyes...
I can't help but see the evidence of my pain in my own reflection


You hurt me again and again!
You continue to cause me pain and I am tired of it


Now you say that you love me too...
You claim to love me, but your actions don't reflect that


That it doesn't seen like what you do
Your words and actions are not aligned


See in my heart
If you truly knew me, you would understand


You never gonna see
But you will never truly understand or see who I am


Love anymore
I have lost my ability to love and trust


Don't be sad
Don't feel sorrow or regret for what you've done


If I leave you
If I decide to walk away from this relationship


Someday all alone
I will be on my own, but it's better than being constantly hurt


Can you understand me?
Do you really know who I am and what I'm going through?


Can you know what I want?
Do you even care about my wants and needs?


Can you feel this pain inside?
Do you understand the depth of my emotional pain?


Can you see that I love you?!!
Despite everything, I still love you and hope that you can see that

Andrew, the high ceiling and large volumetric cubes of the space suggest a cloud type treatment could yield significant benefits in both freq and time domains.

Plus, a simple diy cloud system can include inexpensive LED indirect perimeter up-lighting ... transforming the ambience with it's warm soft glow.

Indirect, diffuse, up-lighting is second only to natural light in aesthetic appeal.

Food for thought.

(I get it, you're at a stopping point.
Simply like to point out there's diverging opinions in sidewall treatment approaches. However, there's universal acceptance to acoustic advantages to ceiling cloud treatment).

Killer content btw

I watched cheap audio man's video the other day and yes, I also use the house plants to help with correction.

@powerguymark

Acoustically what did the wood slats do to your overall sound?
It looks great by the way.

@vicXsan

Used some vevlet curtains on a empty wall to remove reflection, looked horrible but worked perfectly. Could have been nicely done if I could bother at the time tho.

@PetraKann

PowerGuy: I believe the main reason for installing wooden slats in a listening area is to reduce reverberant noise.
Not sure how effective this acoustic treatment is as a bass trap. But it would certainly dampen reflections snd reverberating noise.
Design is critical. Slat spacing, thickness, shape, location, spacing from rear wall or ceiling and type of wood used will determine how effective this acoustic treatment is.
Just installing slats without design considerations can make the acoustics in a room worse

@@powerguymark It adds some diffusion to offset the absorption of high frequencies.

We put on an acoustic painting. Meaning the canvas is sound transparent, the frame offers space behind the canvas and that space contains acoustic absorption material.

@chinmeysway

They donā€™t work much bc paint and canvas is not absorptive

@Monsux

I just love how you two handle acoustic problems with a good visual/interior design. This is a rare thing and the house looks stunning. Your new content is so good and something that people will watch years later when they try to solve the same things. I'm all about making the interior design as good/functional as possible and creating DIY solutions for the audio that also goes together with the interior elements. For example, custom acoustic panels with smooth design art fabric on the top can make an ugly thing into something people always compliment. Not even a single person has ever guessed two of my massive elements are diffusers/absorbers... They think it's just art.

@audiophil5042

True. Design is also one thing that this hobby kind of lacks. It would be easier for an average younger person to get into if speakers and equipment were designed to go together with (modern) decoration. Most audiophile equipments are designed and sold by older men. There's a massive market for the younger generation with money to spend. I have seen zero big streamers with sponsored hi-fi speakers or headphones and they use audio devices 8h+ every day.
