Holing Out
Yuck Lyrics

The song "Holing Out" by the indie rock band Yuck seems to be about feeling disconnected from someone or something that the singer once felt close to, but can no longer connect with. The repetition of the line "Everybody says they can't get through to you" suggests a sense of frustration and helplessness in trying to reach out to this person or idea. The phrase "you're just a point of view" implies a certain level of detachment and lack of understanding, as if this person or idea is so different from the singer that they cannot fully comprehend it.

The second half of the song seems to reflect on memories of being with this person or idea that was once close but now seems distant. The line "All the times with you, wake me up tomorrow" implies a sense of nostalgia or longing for those past moments. The repetition of the phrase "I'm holing out for you" suggests that the singer is holding on to the hope that they can reconnect with this person or idea, even if it seems unlikely.

The reference to "uncle Joseph" and "pushing a pencil through" is a bit unclear in its meaning, but seems to suggest a desire for clarity or understanding, and perhaps a frustration with the limitations of language or communication. Overall, the song creates a sense of melancholy and longing, with a hint of frustration and confusion.
