Pop Song
Tani Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are not the love of my life, but you are close
This wasn´t the best trip, but it was close
All this time we were making pop songs
Or love songs, popcorn songs
Was life just a big pop song?

Overall Meaning

In Tani's song "Pop Song", the lyrics convey a sense of compromise and settling for what's close enough. Tani acknowledges that the person they are with is not the love of their life, but they are close enough to fill that void. The line "This wasn't the best trip, but it was close" further highlights this idea of settling for something that isn't perfect but is good enough.

The chorus suggests a sense of disillusionment with life's experiences, as Tani questions whether everything is just a big pop song. The reference to pop songs, love songs, and even popcorn songs is an interesting juxtaposition that ties into this theme of settling for something that's easy and accessible rather than seeking out deeper emotions and experiences.
