Lasso
Phoenix Lyrics
Where would you go?
Not long ago
I've been thinking out loud
Why so suddenly?
Don-don-don't you know?
Don't do it
What you do
Oh, what you do to me
Forever is a long long time
Trying to follow your ideal
Oh sorry but your so called life
It is such a waste
Wear your real eyes
No you don't realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Where would you go
Where would you go
Tied up in a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
So lonely so pretty such a lack of diplomacy
You can't get out
Don't you know don't do it
What you do well you should do to me
Far-out, so far-out
Such a fall-out
Not only that you're lonely
Don't matter if you're not so well (so well)
No you're not so well
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Where would you go
Where would you go
Tied up in a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Wear your real eyes
No you don't realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too
Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way (lost your way)

"Lasso"
Where would you go
Not long ago
I’ve been thinking out loud
Was it suddenly?
Do-do-don’t you know?
Don’t do it
What you do
Oh what you do to me
Forever is a long long time
When you lost your way
Trying to follow your ideal
Oh sorry but your so-called life
It is such a waste
Wear your real eyes
No you don’t realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Where would you go
Where would you go
Tied up to a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
So lonely so pretty such a lack of diplomacy
You can’t get out
Do-don’t you know don’t do it
What you do well you should do to me
Far-out so far-out
Such a fall-out
Not only that you're lonely
Doesn't matter if you're not so well
No you're not so well
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way

[Verse 1]
Where would you go?
Not long ago, I’ve been thinking out loud
Why so suddenly? D-d-don’t you know?
Don’t do it, what you do, oh, what you do to me
Forever is a long, long time
When you’ve lost your way
Trying to follow your ideal
Oh, sorry but your so-called life
It is such a waste
[Pre-Chorus]
Wear your real eyes
No, you don’t realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes, too
[Chorus]
Where would you go, where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into, could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Where would you go, where would you go
Tied up to a lasso?
Could you run into, could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
[Verse 2]
So lonely, so pretty, such a lack of diplomacy
You can’t get out
D-don’t you know? Oh, don’t do it
What you do well, you should do to me
Far out, so far out, such a fallout
Not only that you’re lonely
Don’t matter if you’re not so well (Not so well)
No, you’re not so well
[Chorus]
Where would you go, where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into, could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Where would you go, where would you go
Tied up to a lasso?
Could you run into, could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
[Post-Chorus]
Wear your real eyes
No, you don’t realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes, too
[Outro]
Forever is a long, long time
When you’ve lost your way
Forever is a long, long time
When you’ve lost your way...

Awesong song!!!!
Where would you go?
Not long ago
I've been thinking out loud
Why so suddenly?
Don't you know?
Don't do it
What you do
Oh what you do to me
Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Trying to follow your ideal
Oh sorry but your so called life
It is such a waste
Wear your real eyes
No you don't realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
So lonely so pretty such a lack of diplomacy
You can't get out
Don't you know don't do it
What you do well you should do to me
Far-out, so far-out
Such a fall-out
Not only that you're lonely
Don't matter if you're not so well
No you're not so well
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Tomorrow is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Tomorrow is a long long time
When you've lost your way

My interpretation of the song:
Basically I think it is about having someone close to you attempt suicide, possibly "succeeding" and wanting to bring them back with this metaphorical "lasso."
The following is the lyrics and than my interpretation. This entire thing could be wrong but here ya go 😂
"Where would you go?"
-if you die
"Not long ago
I've been thinking out loud
Why so suddenly?"
-They've been asking for help for a while but when they attempted people were wondering "why so suddenly" as if they hadn't been looking for help for a while. I think the happy beat really emphasizes that things could be so wrong for someone but they seem so happy.
"Don't you know?
Don't do it
What you do
Oh what you do to me"
-don't you know how much you being gone would hurt me?
"Forever is a long long time
When you've lost your way"
-forever would be a while if you loose that person that is your rock
"Trying to follow your ideal
Oh sorry but your so called life
It is such a waste"
-bullying
"Wear your real eyes
No you don't realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too"
-think about what you are doing and what you are accepting without the eyes of your depressed thoughts
"Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?"
-I think the lasso symbolizes trying to bring someone back from the grave and the singer wishes that someone who has this "lasso" would run into them to bring back someone that was close to them
"So lonely so pretty such a lack of diplomacy
You can't get out"
-the person who attempted suicide had so many mixed thoughts and wanted to "get out" of their head
"Don't you know don't do it
What you do well you should do to me"
-I wish your burden would have been on me instead of you so you wouldn't have done it
"Far-out, so far-out
Such a fall-out
Not only that you're lonely
Don't matter if you're not so well
No you're not so well"
-your thoughts make you feel emotionally distant from other people to a point that you are lonely, but "it doesn't matter if you're not [emotionally] well"
"Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?"

"Tomorrow is a long long time
When you've lost your way
Tomorrow is a long long time
When you've lost your way"

I firmly believe that this is most under-appreciated song ever.
It's well produced, sounds good, has great instrumentals, is original, CATCHY AS FUCK, and a weird and epic mix of goofy happiness and odd bittersweet sadness. I don't care if Phoenix sucks at writing lyrics, this song is amazing.

Where would you go
Not long ago
I’ve been thinking out loud
Was it suddenly?
Do-do-don’t you know?
Don’t do it
What you do
Oh what you do to me
Forever is a long long time

Oh sorry but your so-called life

Wear your real eyes
No you don’t realize
What you say yes to
But you say yes too
Where would you go
Where would you go
With a lasso?
Could you run into
Could you run into
Could you go and run into me?
Where would you go
Where would you go
Tied up to a lasso?
Could you run into

Could you go and run into me?
So lonely so pretty such a lack of diplomacy
You can’t get out
Do-don’t you know don’t do it
What you do well you should do to me
