03. Figure It Out
Royal Blood Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nothing here to see
Just a kid like me
Trying to cuss and see
Trying to figure it out

Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
And still I'm here
Trying to figure it out

Getting hard to sleep
But it is in my dreams
But it's killing me
To try and figure it out

Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
And still I'm here
Trying to figure it out

I'll let it go 'cause I won't see you later
And I'm not allowed to talk it out
I said I'll come, I'll promise I won't show
But I see you trying to figure it out
I promise you, I'll take a bet on you
But you didn't know I planned it out
I said I'll go, yeah, I won't see you later
And I'm not allowed to figure it out

Nothing here to see
Just a kid like me
Trying to cuss and see
Trying to figure it out

Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
And still I'm here
Trying to figure it out

I'll let it go 'cause I won't see you later
And I'm not allowed to talk it out
I said I'll come, I'll promise I won't show
But I see you trying to figure it out
I promise you, I'll take a bet on you
But you didn't know I planned it out




I said I'll go, yeah, I won't see you later
And I'm not allowed to figure it out

Nothing here to see
There is no spectacle here


Just a kid like me
I am just a young person


Trying to cuss and see
Attempting to speak coarsely and observe


Trying to figure it out
Struggling to understand something


Nothing better to do
No more interesting activities available to engage in


When I'm stuck on you
When I cannot stop thinking about you


And still I'm here
Despite this, I remain in this situation


Getting hard to sleep
Finding it difficult to fall asleep


But it is in my dreams
The issue causing this is present in my dreams


But it's killing me
This struggle is causing me great distress


To try and figure it out
As I try to comprehend it

I said I will leave and not see you again in the near future


And I'm not allowed to figure it out
I am not allowed to comprehend this myself

Nothing here to see
Just a kid like me
Trying to cut some teeth
Trying to figure it out

Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
I'm still in here trying to figure it out

Getting hard to sleep
Blood is in my dreams
Love is killing me
Trying to figure it out

Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
I'm still in here trying to figure it out

I'll let it go, cause I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to talk it out
I said I'd go, put myself on show
But I'm still trying to figure it out

I broke my shoe, tripped and fell on you
But you didn't know I planned it out
I said I'd go, yeah I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to figure it out

Nothing here to see
Just a kid like me
Trying to cut some teeth
Trying to figure it out

Nothing better to do
When I'm stuck on you
I'm still in here trying to figure it out

I'll let it go, cause I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to talk it out
I said I'd go, put myself on show
But I'm still trying to figure it out

I broke my shoe, tripped and fell on you
But you didn't know I planned it out
I said I'd go, yeah I won't see you later
And we're not allowed to figure it out

Unbelieveable that the guitar is actually a bass...

@wkcchampion

Listen to Think for yourself by The Beatles. This kind of fuzz bass sound was already with us in 1965.

@andreasua5719

Actually is both things, he made this special instrument which plays as the same time bass and guitar, plus he sings...

@sebastianbruzzone4731

@Harvey Tomlinson No, it isn't

@schana96

@@andreasua5719 The bass isn't special, he just uses a combination of pedals, splitters and guitar - as well as - bass amps.
