Low Budget Romance
side-b Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The walls are slowly closing in
I know someday they’ll collide
If we try to fly away
We’ll just get shot out of the sky
Stay with me until it ends
Someday we both know that it will
But I promise until then
This, my heart, is yours to fill
Dance with me in summer
Hold me close in winter too
As long as we don’t need money
We’ll do what you want to do
It don’t matter ‘cause I know you’ll teach me something new
It don’t matter I’ll be happy as long as I’m with you
My mind is like a garbage bin
I carry all my trash inside
When outside it starts to rain
That’s the place I go to hide
And if our love’s not evergreen
There’s no reason not to pretend
If we know just what we’ve seen
We can make it till the end
Dance with me in summer
Hold me close in winter too
As long as we don’t need money
We’ll do what you want to do
It don’t matter ‘cause I know you’ll teach me something new
Something new
It don’t matter I’ll be happy as long as I’m with you
Dance with me in summer
Hold me close in winter too
As long as we don’t need money
We’ll do what you want to do
It don’t matter cuz I know you’ll teach me something new

Something new
It don’t matter I’ll be happy as long as I’m with you

Overall Meaning

"Low Budget Romance" by Side-B tells a bittersweet love story of two people who live their lives without much resource but are content with each other's company. The walls are slowly closing on them, and they know that someday it will collide. However, they won't let that stop them from being together until the end. The line "If we try to fly away, we'll just get shot out of the sky" implies that they know they cannot outrun their fate, but they can make the most of what they have.


The lyrics also portray a sense of comfort and security between the two lovers. The singer promises their heart to the person they love and wouldn't mind learning new things from them. They are willing to dance, hold each other close, and take pleasure in each other's company despite the changing seasons. Even though the singer's mind is like a "garbage bin" where they carry all their worries, they come back to their love to seek shelter from the rains, seeking solace and happiness.


Line by Line Meaning

The walls are slowly closing in
I feel trapped in my current situation


I know someday they’ll collide
Eventually, everything will come crashing down


If we try to fly away
Trying to escape will only lead to failure


We’ll just get shot out of the sky
Our attempts to escape will be met with resistance


Stay with me until it ends
I need your support until the situation resolves itself


Someday we both know that it will
We are both aware that this situation won't last forever


But I promise until then
I promise to stay by your side until the end


This, my heart, is yours to fill
I am giving you my heart to hold on to


Dance with me in summer
Let's have fun and enjoy life


Hold me close in winter too
Let's stay warm and comfort each other


As long as we don’t need money
We can be happy without material possessions


We’ll do what you want to do
I am open to doing whatever makes you happy


It don’t matter ‘cause I know you’ll teach me something new
I am excited to learn from you and experience new things together


My mind is like a garbage bin
My mind is cluttered with negative and useless thoughts


I carry all my trash inside
I hold on to all of my emotional baggage


When outside it starts to rain
When life gets tough, I retreat inside myself


That’s the place I go to hide
I use my emotional baggage to protect myself


And if our love’s not evergreen
If our love doesn't last forever


There’s no reason not to pretend
We can still enjoy each other's company and pretend everything is okay


If we know just what we’ve seen
If we acknowledge the reality of our situation


We can make it till the end
We can support each other until the end


Something new
I am ready to experience new things with you


It don’t matter I’ll be happy as long as I’m with you
As long as we are together, I will be happy

no cap good af 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@jeffbelding589

What an up-lifting tune! Something we could all use a little more of in these times of mostly bad news. AJ, a former guitar student of mine, shows some chops that go far beyond our "Sunshine of Your Love" days! The rhythm section cooks like blue-flame charcoal and the vocals are sensitive as well as soaring in their range. I wish you all well in your pursuit of a piece of the indie music pie. Straight ahead, man, straight ahead!

@SideBband

Wouldn’t be where we are without you!

@jeffbelding589

@@SideBband I appreciate that...but you really took the ball and ran with it, my friend!

@tracy8535

Those shots of Ian are GIVINGGGGG

@SideBband

Almost as giving as AJ Dabbing

@1Shadowz

this actually makes me want to visit Albany instead of just driving through

@SideBband

We’ve got some upcoming shows in the area if you’re looking for an excuse to visit! We post all our dates on Instagram @sidebny so definitely check there. (We’ve got a really exciting show on Halloween that we’re prepping to announce soon! 🎃)
