Dirtbag
Psycraft Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It′s a little bit hard to understand
But i only wanna be a modern man
Just thinking about the one that got away
Nobody wanna give me heart away
It seems you've mistaken me for someone who cares
I′m just a dirt bag under the weather and overrated
It seems you've mistaken me for someone who cares
I'm just a dirt bag under the weather and overrated
Living underground taking it to the scene
Making money not knowing what it means
I′m a liar set shit on fire
Take your time talking down to all your friends
Living with the little dogs and elephants
It′s hard to find it but i don't mind it
It seems you′ve mistaken me for someone who cares
I'm just a dirt bag under the weather and overrated
It seems you′ve mistaken me for someone who cares
I'm just a dirt bag under the weather and overrated
Hitching a ride with the bugs and the flies and I′m on my own
Hitching a ride with the bugs and the flies and I'm on my own




Hitching a ride with the bugs and the flies and I'm on my own
Hitching a ride with the bugs and the flies and I′m on my own

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Psycraft's "Dirtbag" are about the struggles of being a modern man and feeling misunderstood. The singer laments about a lost love and the difficulty in finding someone who will give him their heart. He asserts that he is not who people think he is and that he is just a dirtbag. He describes his life as living underground, taking it to the scene and making money without knowing what it means. The singer goes on to say that he is a liar who sets things on fire, and that he takes his time talking down to all his friends. Despite his tough exterior, he admits that it's hard to find it, but he doesn't mind it.


The final verse is about the singer hitching a ride with bugs and flies, feeling alone and on his own. The lyrics suggest a sense of isolation and a yearning for something more. The repetition of the line "It seems you've mistaken me for someone who cares/I'm just a dirtbag under the weather and overrated" reinforces the idea that the singer is misunderstood and struggling to find his place in the world.
