Teardrops
The Carbonfools Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He’s the one I am scared of
Scary in the mirror
In real life
Scary in my dreams
Scary hold me tight
That’s me
That’s who I am
So much pain
Lot’s of drops
Teardrops
Teardrops falling
Teardrops falling
Teardrops fallin’
Drops falling from the skies
I wonder while I am walking
I wonder while I am walking
Why it rains inside
Teardrops fallin’ from the skies
Drops fallin’
Drops fallin’ from the skies
I wonder where I am going
I wonder where I am going
When it rains inside
Without curtains and screens
How would my house look
Odd means,
Most likely
I always wanted to be odd folks
Eyes can’t see clearly
We need your mind
Not just barely
Knock knock who’s there
Open it up
That ain’t a theory
My truth without my lies
Clowns without laugh
Ballers without baskets
Humans without caskets
Love ain’t that painful
Let’s play with the cats
Kids
The playlist will be endless
Till you find your own (miss)
Alone with your bones
Bones in the caskets
Bones in the caskets
Ballers without baskets
Teardrops falling
Teardrops fallin’
Drops falling from the skies
I wonder while I am walking
I wonder where I am walking
Why it rains inside
Teardrops fallin’ from the skies
Drops fallin’
Drops fallin’ from the skies
I wonder where I am going
I wonder where I am going
When it rains inside
In "Teardrops" by The Carbonfools, the lyrics depict a sense of fear and uncertainty that the singer experiences both internally and externally. The mention of "Dr. white socks in black shoes" suggests the presence of a figure that instills fear, possibly representing an authoritative or intimidating force in the singer's life. This fear is reflected in the mirror and in their dreams, which highlights its deep-rooted impact on their psyche.
The repetition of the line "That’s me, that’s who I am" speaks to the notion that the singer recognizes this fear as a part of their identity, suggesting that it has the potential to break free and cause chaos. The pain they feel is visualized as teardrops, symbolizing emotional distress and turmoil. The repeated chorus lines "Teardrops falling, drops falling from the skies" emphasize the intense emotional weight the singer carries, as they walk and wonder about their purpose and destination.
The lyrics also touch on the desire to be different or "odd" ("I always wanted to be odd folks"), expressing a longing to deviate from the mundane and ordinary. The line "Eyes can’t see clearly, we need your mind, not just barely" suggests that true understanding and empathy require more than just surface-level observation. It invites the listener to be open-minded and to look beyond appearances to truly comprehend the depth of human experiences.
Overall, "Teardrops" explores themes of fear, pain, and the search for meaning amidst uncertainty. It delves into the dualities of the human condition, such as laughter without clowns, success without fulfillment, and love without pain. Ultimately, it urges the listener to embrace their unique journey and continue seeking their own truth.
