Muzz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I escape but I'm still a patient there
In the house of incurable wildness
My mistake is hanging in mid air
I escape but I'm still a vagrant there
In the house of incurable wildness
It ain't angels, it ain't angels
I'm saying, "gonna make them fall to their knees
On this you can rely"
We'll make them bleed again, amen
It ain't angels, it ain't angels
Oh, la, la, la
Sentiment, our love is aching
Scars replaced upon the face of stardom
We made our star dancing beneath this very sky
I'm saying, "gonna make them fall to their knees
On this, you can rely"
We made our star dancing beneath this very sky
Gonna make them fall to their knees
On this you can rely
Everything like it used to be
I want everything like it used to be
The song Everything Like It Used To Be by Muzz is an introspective ballad about the regret and struggle of letting go of past mistakes. The opening lines "My mistakes are hanging in mid air, I escape but I'm still a patient there" set the tone for the entire song, depicting the singer's desperation to be free from the past. The idea of being a patient in the "House of incurable wildness" further highlights the chaotic state of mind the singer is in.
The lyrics then shift to a reminiscence of better times, with the line "We made our star dancing beneath this very sky". The singer yearns for the past and wishes to make things right by saying "Gonna make them fall to their knees, on this you can rely". However, the singer also acknowledges that the past cannot be changed, as seen in the line "Sentiment, our love is aching, scars replaced upon the face of stardom".
The repetition of "It ain't angels, it ain't angels" throughout the song serves as a reminder that there is no divine intervention or easy way out of the singer's predicament. The chorus is a plea to restore everything back to how it used to be, a wish that is unfortunately unattainable.
Overall, Everything Like It Used To Be is a beautiful and hauntingly honest song about coming to terms with past mistakes and the difficult process of moving forward.

My mistakes are hanging in mid air
I am haunted by my past mistakes and I can't escape them
I escape but I'm still a patient there
Although I try to run away from my mistakes, I am still stuck in the same place as if I am a prisoner of them
In the house of incurable wildness
My mistakes have led me to a place of chaos and madness where there seems to be no cure for my problems
My mistake is hanging in mid air
I am constantly reminded of my mistake and it feels as if it is hanging over me and won't go away
I escape but I'm still a vagrant there
I try to leave the situation behind but it still follows me like a homeless wanderer
It ain't angels, it ain't angels
The situation I am in is far from perfect or heavenly
We made our star dancing beneath this very sky
We used to have big dreams and ambitions under this same sky
I'm saying, 'gonna make them fall to their knees On this you can rely'
I am determined to achieve my goals and make everyone who doubted me or didn't believe in me fall to their knees in awe
We'll make them bleed again, amen
We will not give up and continue to push ourselves until we succeed, no matter what it takes
It ain't angels, it ain't angels Oh, la, la, la
Our journey is anything but easy or perfect, but we won't let that stop us
Sentiment, our love is aching
Our love is still strong but it hurts to see how much we have lost along the way
Scars replaced upon the face of stardom
Our passion and ambition have left us with many scars, but we wear them like badges of honor
Everything like it used to be
I want to go back to a time when everything was easier, before I made my mistakes and things became complicated
I want everything like it used to be
I long for the past when things were simpler and I didn't have to deal with the consequences of my actions
