Things
The Sh-Booms Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Shut up)
Everything seems to be going
Too fast for me
And I'm not quite sure how I feel about it
At first I thought the time was slowing
I couldn't figure out, to my surprise
All the things I thought were fine, were not
I don't know where I think I'm going
But I hope it's good, I hope there's something better
Cause once my doubts had started showing
I couldn't figure out where I should go
All the things I thought were fine, were not
And all the things I tried to find, were lost
And all the things I wasn't sure about
Anymore
You know I really miss the summer
Because it's warm and it is beautiful
This new season's such a bummer
I'm always down and in the ground
All the things I thought were fine, were not
And all the things I tried to find, were lost
And all the things I couldn't live without
Were already gone
So now I must go
Now I must go
The lyrics in The Sh-Booms's song "Things" reflect a sense of uncertainty and confusion in the face of rapid changes and challenges. The song begins with the singer expressing a feeling of being overwhelmed by the speed of life and feeling unsure about their emotions and circumstances. Despite initially feeling that time was slowing down, they soon realize that what they once believed to be stable and comforting is actually in a state of disarray.
The singer struggles to make sense of their feelings and direction in life, not knowing where they are headed but hoping for a positive outcome. As doubts and uncertainties start to surface, they feel lost in trying to navigate through the changes and uncertainties. The realization that things they thought were fine are not, and the things they sought to find are elusive, adds to their sense of disorientation and introspection.
The mention of missing the warmth and beauty of summer suggests a longing for a simpler and happier time, contrasting with the somber and disappointing nature of the current season. The shift in seasons seems to mirror the singer's mood, as they describe feeling down and defeated. The repeated refrain of things not being as they seemed and being lost underscores a theme of disillusionment and the struggle to come to terms with unexpected challenges and losses.
In the final lines, the singer acknowledges the need to move forward despite the uncertainty and difficulties they face. The decision to "go" reflects a sense of determination and resilience in the face of adversity. Overall, the lyrics of "Things" convey a poignant reflection on navigating through uncertainty, disappointment, and the constant flux of life, while holding onto hope for a brighter future.

At first I thought the time was slowing
Initially, I perceived my circumstances as relaxing and unhurried.
I couldn't figure out, to my surprise
To my astonishment, I realized I was mistaken.
All the things I thought were fine, were not
Everything I believed to be okay was actually problematic.

I don't know where I think I'm going
I am unsure of my direction in life.
But I hope it's good, I hope there's something better

Cause once my doubts had started showing
Once my uncertainties became evident,
I couldn't figure out where I should go
I found it challenging to determine my path forward.
All the things I thought were fine, were not
Once again, I confront the reality that my assumptions were wrong.
And all the things I tried to find, were lost
My search for clarity and purpose has been unsuccessful.
And all the things I wasn't sure about
The uncertainties I carried with me
Anymore
have accumulated and weigh heavily on me.
You know I really miss the summer
I find myself longing for the warmth and joy of summer days.
Because it's warm and it is beautiful
It signifies comfort and aesthetic pleasure.
This new season's such a bummer
The current time feels disappointing and disheartening.
I'm always down and in the ground
I often feel depressed and overwhelmed.
All the things I thought were fine, were not
Once again, I face the realization that my previous assessments were flawed.
And all the things I tried to find, were lost
My continuous searching yields nothing of substance.
And all the things I couldn't live without
The essentials I once deemed irreplaceable
Were already gone
have already left my life.
So now I must go
Thus, I feel compelled to move on.
Now I must go
It is time for me to take my leave and seek a new path.
