Feet
The Halfs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't even breathe on my own two feet.
I'm constantly trying to compete with myself.
And I see you're so good.
How'd you get to the place you can show your face?
And you've even got a smile on it.
And I need a new life.
Can you?
The lyrics to The Halfs's song Feet in 2-3 long paragraphs can be interpreted as a contemplation of one's own flaws and insecurities. The persona begins by acknowledging that they are "so bad" that they can't even "breathe on [their] own two feet." This suggests a sense of inadequacy and a feeling of being overwhelmed by their own thoughts and emotions. The persona then notes that they are constantly trying to compete with themselves, which can be seen as an indicator of a lack of self-confidence.
As the song progresses, the persona compares themselves to another person who is "so good." The persona wonders how this person is able to display confidence and grace, while they struggle with their own flaws. The persona also notes that this other person has a smile on their face, which serves as a contrast to their own feelings of defeat.
The final line of the song, "And I need a new life. Can you?" suggests that the persona is in search of a new beginning or a change of direction. They are searching for someone who can help them find a new path and move beyond their current state of mind.
