Come Outside
Ty Segall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't try to hide, you come inside
Do you spend your time inside your mind?
Are you finding time to
So come along and carry on, and come with me, one day we'll go, oh
Won't you come inside? Hey, I won't mind
So come along and carry on, and come with me, one day we'll go, oh
In Ty Segall's song Come Outside, the lyrics ask someone to come inside without any hesitation. The singer asks this person if they usually spend their time inside their mind, possibly indicating they are lost in thought or troubled by something. The singer seems to be trying to get this person out of their head and into the present moment by inviting them to come inside with him.
The repeated line, "so come along and carry on, and come with me, one day we'll go, oh," suggests that the singer wants to take this person on an adventure, but first they need to come out of their headspace and join him. The use of the word "hide" could also suggest an escape from reality or a need to forget about their troubles for a while.
Overall, the lyrics of Come Outside seem to be a call for the listener to let go of their worries and join the singer on a journey outside of their mind. It's a simple message, but one that is often necessary in times of stress or anxiety.
