This is not your typical motorik beat kraut album; rather it sounds more like a breezy take on Love or Beau Brummels. The way that songs like “Willoweed” and “Paisley” flow seamlessly into one another, it is easy to see how listeners will become entranced by this new, dream-like world that The Holydrug Couple have created. These two stand-out tracks, as well as “Follow Your Way” really exemplify the growth of this band and signify the new direction they’re headed in.
I'll Only Say This
The Holydrug Couple Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just like a couple of times, yeah
Forget about I've just said
Everyone thinks they know
What they're talking about
'Cause I didn't want to hear them
And I know that
I'd like to be away
You're getting older
A man in a dream said
Do whatever you want...
TO
DO
Ahhhh
Uuhhh
And living
Resting on a bed made of screens
Anywhere that you can find it
You know you can't hide, survive
It'll bring you down
Forgive them for everything
Everyone thinks that you just wanna take a look on whatever they are
Don't fail on your fantasies
And in the end
A man in a dream will say
Do whatever you want...
TO
DO
Ahhhh
Uuhhh
Ahhhh
Uuhhh see less
The Holydrug Couple's song "I'll Only Say This" is a dreamy and introspective track that alludes to the idea of escaping reality and following one's inner desires, even if it means going against the norms and expectations of society. The opening lines of the song, "I'll only say this, just like a couple of times, forget about I've just said," suggest a hesitance to fully express oneself and a fear of judgment from others. However, the following lines, "Everyone thinks they know what they're talking about 'cause I didn't want to hear them, and I know that I'd like to be away," indicate a desire to break free from the opinions and expectations of others and embark on a journey of self-discovery.
The lyrics further explore themes of detachment and introspection in the lines, "Living, resting on a bed made of screens, anywhere that you can find it, you know you can't hide, survive, it'll bring you down." Here, the screen metaphor can be interpreted as a reflection of the modern age's rampant technological advancements and the need to detach oneself from constant stimulation to find true fulfillment. The song's final lines, "A man in a dream said, do whatever you want to do," reiterate the importance of following one's inner desires and passions, regardless of external expectations or limitations.
