Your Backyard
Thomas And The Evil Computer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I forgot your backyard
One more time. I'm done
I forgot your backyard
One more time. I'm done

There's no planned attack
There's no turning back
When the fuse ignites
We must fight, fight, fight!

I forgot your backyard
One more time. I'm done

Forgot your backyard for the last time





I forgot your backyard
One more time. I'm done

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Thomas and the Evil Computer's song "Your Backyard" appear to convey a sense of regret and missed opportunities. The repeated line "I forgot your backyard, one more time. I'm done" suggests a theme of forgetfulness or neglect, with the singer acknowledging a recurring mistake or oversight. The act of forgetting someone's backyard can symbolize a lack of attention or care towards a specific aspect of a relationship or connection.


The subsequent lines "There's no planned attack, there's no turning back, when the fuse ignites, we must fight, fight, fight!" introduce a sense of urgency and conflict. The imagery of a fuse igniting and the call to fight suggest a sudden escalation or confrontation that cannot be avoided. This shift in tone may indicate a realization of consequences or a need to confront the consequences of neglect or oversight.


The repetition of the phrase "I forgot your backyard, one more time. I'm done" reinforces a sense of finality and resolution. The singer seems to be acknowledging their mistake for the last time, indicating a decision to no longer repeat the same error. This could be interpreted as a moment of introspection and personal growth, where the singer recognizes the need to address their neglect and take responsibility for their actions.


Overall, these lyrics can be seen as a reflection on accountability, memory, and the consequences of neglect in relationships. The metaphor of forgetting a backyard serves as a poignant symbol for overlooking or neglecting important aspects of a connection, and the call to "fight, fight, fight!" suggests a readiness to confront and overcome challenges. The repetition of the refrain underscores a sense of finality and closure, as the singer moves towards acknowledging their mistake and making a conscious effort to rectify it.
