Fracture
Slumberjack Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All I say, all I do is bring you down
Honestly, can we get back to the start
I just hate this feeling now
It's easier when we start
It's better with the lights off
Please just steal my trust
Trying to rebuild this
Just take it as it comes
There is always something that pulls me on
When it's all done can we begin
Need to feel like you're still on my side
Just take it as it comes
When I'm alone
I can feel you still on me
Skin to skin
I know you feel this chemistry
Honestly, can we get back to the start
I just hate this feeling now
It's easier when we start
It's better with the lights off
Please just steal my trust
Don't go overthinking
Trying to rebuild this
Just take it as it comes
There is always something that pulls me on
When it's all done can we begin
Need to feel like you're still on my side
Just take it as it comes
There is always something that pulls me on
When it's all done can we begin
Need to feel like you're still on my side
The lyrics of Slumberjack's "Fracture" explore themes of insecurity, regret and the desire to go back to the beginning of a relationship. The opening lines of the song express the disappointment and sadness of a relationship that has gone sour despite the best efforts of both partners. The singer is unable to shake off the feeling that they are to blame for the relationship's decline and wishes they could turn back the clock to the point where everything was going well.
The chorus of the song provides a sense of hope and optimism, suggesting that the couple can still find a way to make things work. The lyrics encourage the listener to take things one step at a time and not to overanalyse things. They imply that the key to rebuilding the relationship lies in developing trust and maintaining a sense of optimism, even in the face of setbacks.
As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges the need for physical intimacy in their relationship, but also expresses a lingering emotional attachment to their partner. Ultimately, the song reflects the complexity of human relationships, capturing the ambiguities, tensions, and contradictions that can arise between two people who are deeply connected to one another.
