Up&Go Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When the application of your socially molded dreams
Leaves you naked and alseep
In the fool's gold forest
Won't you satisfy your sex hunger
of lonely starving trees?
Hollywood courtesy
Sometimes we just get way too into character
Blow up doll on the bed
Confusing costomb with flesh
The profit trees have gained their reward
She'll let anyone in just to feel
But is it better to numb our deepest desires?
When our awkward hearts solidify
We morph guilt into blame
These lyrics from Up&Go's song "Advertisement" touch on themes of disillusionment, the superficiality of society, and the search for genuine connection in a world driven by appearances.
The opening lines, "What happens next? When the application of your socially molded dreams leaves you naked and asleep," suggest that conforming to societal expectations can lead to a feeling of emptiness and disengagement. The reference to being "naked and asleep" in the fool's gold forest symbolizes vulnerability and being deceived by false promises. The lyrics question whether satisfying one's sexual desires with superficial encounters, represented by "lonely starving trees," is a valid substitute for genuine emotional connection.
The next line, "Hollywood courtesy," highlights the idea that society's obsession with image and fame can perpetuate a superficiality that hinders authentic connections and prevents deeper understanding. The lyrics imply that there might be a hidden, more genuine world beneath the surface of this sugar-coated society, one that is often overlooked or dismissed.
The following lines, "Sometimes we just get way too into character. Blow up doll on the bed, confusing costume with flesh," suggest that people often lose touch with their true selves while trying to fit into predefined roles or identities. The metaphor of a blow-up doll on a bed underscores the artificiality and emptiness that can result from prioritizing appearances over substance. The reference to confusing a costume with flesh emphasizes the disconnect between external presentation and internal reality.
The final lines, "The profit trees have gained their reward. She'll let anyone in just to feel. But is it better to numb our deepest desires? When our awkward hearts solidify, we morph guilt into blame," address the consequences of prioritizing material gain and instant gratification over authentic emotional fulfillment. The phrase "profit trees" suggests that those who prioritize money or superficial success have achieved their goals but may still feel empty and disconnected. The lyrics question whether it is better to suppress or numb our true desires in order to fit societal expectations. The reference to turning guilt into blame acknowledges the tendency to deflect responsibility onto others when our own emotional needs are unfulfilled.
Overall, these lyrics explore the dissatisfaction and disconnection that can arise from prioritizing societal expectations and superficial desires over genuine connection and fulfillment. They call attention to the need to dig beneath surface-level appearances and explore the depths of our true desires and emotions in order to find true satisfaction and understanding.
