Wet Blanket
METZ Lyrics

The lyrics of Metz's song "Wet Blanket" seems to talk about the aftermath of a night of heavy drinking and partying. The first few lines suggest that the singer is lying on the floor, likely due to being too drunk or intoxicated to stand up. The second line, "I wish you would stop the room from spinning 'round," shows that the singer is so disoriented that they desire external intervention to help them through the situation. The third line, "Your eyes are burning and there's nothing I can do about it," exemplifies how the singer can sense judgment (possibly from their partner) and is helpless in dealing with it.

The lyrics of the song then shift towards a plea from the singer, who is waiting in the dark, likely in a state of vulnerability or desperation. They cannot hold the emotions inside any longer and implore their partner to give them what they need. However, with "my patience is wearing thin," the singer seems to be teetering on the brink of losing control, and they cannot afford to wait for much longer. The repetition of "you'll never be the same" in both verses could be interpreted as a warning of the aftermath of doing something rash, such as cheating or lying. The song's title, "Wet Blanket," is likely a metaphor for the feeling of being hindered from doing what you want or the feeling of depression that can come in the aftermath of intoxication.
