Demonstration
husband&wife Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The days are gone,
So i begin
To make an excuse for all of my friends and this appetite.
The days are long,
So i commit myself to the spiteful revenge of this appetite.

And all you want to hold onto
Are the brights and shines of this world
And the only ones i want to belong to.

The fastest cars,
And fastest girls are making plans with
Their friends on the front lawn to crash here tonight.
The brightest lights and last goodbyes resonate down the halls where the
Company keeps you from sleep tonight.





I didn't leave, but i feel so far away

Overall Meaning

The above lyrics come from Husband&wife's song "Demonstration". The song talks about the feeling of being left behind by one's friends who are enjoying extravagant lifestyles with fast cars, fast girls, and bright lights. The singer begins to make excuses for their friends and their own "appetite" for this lifestyle. They commit themselves to the "spiteful revenge" of their appetite but at the same time, they feel like they don't belong to this world of fast cars and parties.


The chorus talks about the desire to hold onto the "brights and shines of this world" but the singer only wants to belong to a select few. The second verse is a continuation of the scene with the singer watching their friends making plans to party while they are left alone feeling distant and forgotten. The line "I didn't leave, but I feel so far away" is a powerful way of expressing the feeling of being alone even when physically present. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and a search for meaning in a world where extravagant lifestyles seem to be the norm.
