MILK
Prang Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Day time
Going out of my mind
Blurred lines
Tightening up to unwind
New sights
Never wrong but not right
The only way to take
The chance but not the break
Guess that's what they say
They only like it their way
I guess that's what they say
No time
For all you put to one side
Grey skies
Somehow you see the bright side
It's no lie
Never thought we'd get to that line
Now you've got to wait
The chance but not the break
You see the riddle and you never see the shot
But I think we did too little when you say we did a lot
And I wait here in the middle like I never was forgot
But we both know it's not the time
We know it's not the time
For what they say
They only like things their way
I guess that's what they say
They only like things their way
I'm fine
Making moves in time
Going on, going strong, going on too long
Day time
Put on hold to my mind
The only way to take
The chance but not the break
How wide
How much air in that sky
How bright
How unfair and how kind
How to lie, how do I
How to lose or to find
How do I
How do I
You see the riddle and you never see the shot
But I think we did too little when you say we did a lot
And I wait here in the middle like it never was forgot
But we both know it's not the time
We know it's not the time
For what they say
They only like things their way
I guess that's what they say
They only like things their way
You see the riddle and you never see the shot
But I think we did too little when you say we did a lot
And I wait here in the middle like it never was forgot
But we both know it's not the time
We know it's not the time
You see the riddle and you never see the shot
But I think we did too little when you say we did a lot
And I wait here in the middle like it never was forgot
But we both know it's not the time
We know it's not the time
For what they say
They only like things their way




I guess that's what they say
They only like things their way, yeah

Overall Meaning

The song Milk by Prang is a melancholic ballad about being stuck in a mindset that is not necessarily the right one, but that you can't escape from. The opening lines "Day time, going out of my mind, blurred lines, tightening up to unwind" suggest that the singer is feeling trapped in their own head, unsure of what direction to take in life. The following lines "New sights, never wrong but not right, the only way to take the chance but not the break" suggest that there may be an opportunity for change, but it's hard to tell whether it's the right one.


As the song continues, the singer acknowledges that "they only like it their way", perhaps referring to societal expectations or the pressure to conform. They express a sense of feeling caught in between, waiting for the right time to make a move but unsure of when that will be. The repeated phrase "you see the riddle and you never see the shot" reinforces this theme of feeling stuck in indecision.


The song's refrain, "we know it's not the time, for what they say, they only like things their way", captures the frustration of feeling boxed in by others' expectations. Despite the uncertainty and frustration, the singer seems determined to keep moving forward, "going on, going strong, going on too long". The song ultimately ends on a note of ambiguity - while the singer is still unsure of how to proceed, they seem optimistic about the possibilities that lie ahead.
