Get Lost
Troubled Hubble Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And we're not going to give up that easy
Where will you go when this day is over
I don't know
There is so much anger behind your beauty
There's so much beauty behind your anger
And what comes out is like
In my favorite season
Know that you and I will one day, one day
Get lost, get lost
And are things the way you want them to be
No, they aren't
And they never are it seems
I'm on the phone
You're on the moon
We're in each other's bedroom
But this can't go on, this can't exist
When you've got two hearts
That won't wanna live with the other one
You get out of here now
You can do it, escape and face your fear
Get lost, get lost and you get lost
You get lost and you get lost…
You fight the freeze
And cut down trees
In your cities of conformities
And if I cooperate nerve
If I cooperative with the traffic officer
If I cooperative with the roads
I'll never, ever get lost
The lyrics to Troubled Hubble's song "Get Lost" is a reflection of the complexity of relationships. The opening of the song is a statement of defiance- "What we have here is you and me, and we're not going to give up that easy." It is apparent that the relationship had been in trouble, and it has reached a point where either party could walk away, but they choose not to. There is a hint of uncertainty, "Where will you go when this day is over? I don't know." Even though they appear to have each other's backs, there is no certainty about the future.
The following couple of lines are an expression of the conflicting emotions in the relationship- the beauty and the anger. It is like the tide pushing and pulling, leaving behind an aftermath of pain- "There's so much anger behind your beauty, There's so much beauty behind your anger." The lines that follow demonstrate the need for a change- something has to give. The metaphor of Bloody feet on a sandy beach in my favorite season means that the current state of the relationship brings more pain than pleasure in the midst of the person's preferred season. It is an indication that though they are hanging on, they know it is a matter of time before they get lost.
The song's overall mood is one of melancholy, bordering on bitter resignation, which is a common theme in most of Troubled Hubble's music. It is an honest reflection of the human condition - the joys, the heartaches, and the struggles. In the face of the complexities of living, the song encourages people to "get lost" to escape reality and live a carefree life- just for a moment.

I'll never, ever get lost
If I continue along a predictable path, I'll never truly find myself.
