Count Me Out
Seether Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Perfume don't smell like daisies
I'm feeling insecure
And everybody's aging
Cause no one wins that war
I've got that nagging feeling
I'll die from painful cause
Don't feel like anybody
Could love me anymore

So tell me, have you really got it figured out?
I want it all
You can't remember what it's really all about
I wanted more
If this is all there is then you can count me out
I want it all
Just another whisper trying to be a shout
I'm more

Stone walls and echos fading
White lines and open sores
Smile for the camera baby
Accept your false awards
Douse me in milk and honey
I have become a bore
It feels like everybody
Keeps taking more and more

So tell me, have you really got it figured out?
I want it all
You can't remember what it's really all about
I wanted more
If this is all there is then you can count me out
I want it all
Just another whisper trying to be a shout
I'm more

So tell me, have you really got it figured out?
I want it all
You can't remember what it's really all about
I wanted more
If this is all there is then you can count me out
I want it all
Just another whisper trying to be a shout
I'm more

I
Can't
Bring

Overall Meaning

The song "Count Me Out" by Seether talks about the feeling of insecurity and fears of growing older. The first verse describes a feeling of insignificance towards the world and a fear of death. The second verse refers to seeking attention through social media, only to be disappointed by the false rewards and the constant need for more attention. The chorus talks about the desire for something more, something greater than the mundane life people are currently living.


The lyrics show a sense of longing for something beyond the mundane routine of life, and the fear of settling for less. The reference to aging and death, as well as the false values society has normalized, reinforces the message that there is more to life than material possessions.


Overall, "Count Me Out" is a song about being human, with flaws, doubts and fears, but also about dreaming bigger and not settling for less than what one truly desires.

Perfume don't smell like daisies
Things are never as they seem


I'm feeling insecure
My confidence has waned


And everybody's aging
Everyone is growing old


Cause no one wins that war

I feel alone


Could love me anymore
No one cares about me

Memories fading away


White lines and open sores
Drugs and hurt

Everyone seems to
