Out of Place
Ourlives Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the small things that I have
The feeling that I get from your eyes
Is that something's out of place
My fear grows deeper each time
But my heart will find a way
I know you'll figure it out
I know you'll figure it out someway, it out someway
I know you'll figure it out someday, it out someday
I know you'll figure it out
Think of you as night in the sky
Watching out all the time
The fear grows deeper each time
I miss you but things can't stay
Feels greatly out of place
That's why I won't follow you back
I know you'll figure it out someway, it out someway
I know you'll figure it out someday, it out someday
I know you'll figure it out
I know you'll figure it out someway, it out someway
I know you'll figure it out someday, it out someday
I know you'll figure it out
The lyrics of Ourlives's song Out Of Place depict a complicated emotional state where the singer is torn between feelings of love and fear. The opening lines express the confusion that the singer is experiencing as they look at the sky and consider all the small things that they have. The next lines reveal that the singer is with someone whose eyes are making them feel that something is out of place. This could indicate that there is a problem in the relationship or perhaps the singer is concerned that they are not in the right place in their life.
The chorus of the song is a message of hope and encouragement directed toward the person who the singer is addressing. The singer believes that this person will eventually figure things out and solve the problem, but it is not clear if the singer is referring to the relationship or more broadly to life in general. The verse, "Think of you as night in the sky, watching out all the time, the fear grows deeper each time" suggests that perhaps the relationship has ended or that the singer is afraid that it will end.
Overall, the lyrics of "Out of Place" suggest a sense of confusion and uncertainty in the face of a difficult situation, but with a message of hope that things will eventually work out.
