    @crystalbethseizetheday8669 3 года назад +2847

    My interpretation: dodie at the beginning is delivering messages. Not only were they unanswered, but trying to send them was getting so difficult (sitting still with a brain on fire) she does some of it blindfolded (eyes closed isn’t helping). She had to send these messages, she wants to. But it’s so difficult, no responses, she cuts her hand, falls under the weight of her messages and what she wants to express.
    I believe the song is about realising you have dated a pattern of partners who perhaps aren’t artistic or on the same intellectual plain as you are. They don’t want to talk about deep things, you do. You feel you can’t share you thoughts (I don’t think they get me dear) but you tried to make him/her ‘bloom’. And it ends up feeling like you’re the one with the problem.
    I believe at the end when she gets the uniform that’s her accepting exactly who she is and confidently goes about delivering her messages exactly as she wants without all the issues. She’s able to see herself differently, as a strong person who will indeed send her messages out all over the world as loud as she wants, and perhaps is realising she would need a partner to be as loud and unapologetic as herself.
    Great song, great video. LOVE this new era of Dodie. Gone is the yellow and the soprano uke. Dodie has clearly studied music a great deal and I’m super proud of the talented woman she has become. Her self awareness and journey are pretty amazing really.

    • @isaniart

    • @iradandekar8341
      @iradandekar8341 3 года назад +95

      I also interpretted it as she having to try really hard to send these messages. She was unable to do it efficiently at first, but now she understands how and works towards it (literaly, works- in the video) and then she can do it way better when she finally delivers the messages and accepts it even if its unanswered (like you mentioned). At the end, she feels lighter, like a weight has been lifted off her, and she starts floating.

    As someone with ADHD, this song encompasses the feeling of RSD (Rejection Sensitivity Disorder) where if i perceive any form of rejection from someone I care about I immediately overthink and get immense anxiety. If someone I care about who usually opens up to me suddenly shut down around me I would probably sense myself into a spiral like the lyrics of this song

    So the symbolism could be, that we think we can only "deliver" when we're doing so perfectly. Constantly striving for perfection, but in the end, what we needed to release ourself and give ourself fully to others, was already there.
    She could've put on that uniform in the beginning, she still did what she needed to do, self restraint is harsh.
    Just my own interpretation.

    As someone who struggles with compulsively trying to meet the needs of my partners, this song hits. To me, the meaning is literal, and when people are quiet and I can't read their vibe, I blame myself for doing something wrong and hate myself - even when I didn't do anything wrong and everything's actually fine. Thanks dodie. I feel seen. I don't think I can help it, but I'm working on being kinder to myself.

    [Verse 1]
    Could it be different? Did I ruin the day?
    Oh, do you look angry? Oh, what did I say?
    Filling in the gaps, build a problem that
    Neither of us needs, something wrong with me (Mmh-mmh-mmh)
    I'm getting desperate, losing my mind
    Oh, how do we get here, every time?
    One will fold their arms, one will do the dance
    Really is no need, something wrong with me
    [Pre-Chorus]
    No, I don't think I can help it (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!)
    (Nope)
    [Chorus]
    Oh, so illogical, I'm not magical, I can't read your mind
    But how can you not hear the whole conversation?
    I have, sitting still with a brain on fire
    I know, it's a me-thing
    Eyes closed - isn't helping?
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    [Verse 2]
    Look at you sideways, playing a game
    Oh, what if I laugh now, think I'm insane
    Filling in the gaps, build a problem that
    Neither of us needs, something wrong with me
    Pushing a boundary, something to prove
    Strong expectation, you already lose
    Oh, one will fold their arms, one will do the dance
    Really is no need, something wrong with me
    [Pre-Chorus]
    No, I don't think I can help it (K)
    [Chorus]
    Oh, so illogical, I'm not magical, I can't read your mind (Read your mind)
    But how can you not hear the whole conversation?
    I have, sitting still with a brain on fire (Brain on fire)
    I know, it's a me-thing
    Eyes closed - isn't helping?
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    [Bridge]
    Give me a mystery
    Maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones
    Oh, something here must be done
    I'm hoping I'm ready here
    Don't think they get me, dear
    I'm only proving how
    I'm only worth losing now
    Give me a mystery, maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones, something here must be done
    I'm hoping I'm ready here, don't think they get me, dear
    (When you go quiet, I hate myself)
    Don't think they get me, dear
    (No I don't...)
    Give me a mystery, maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones, something that must be done
    I'm hoping I'm ready here, don't think they get me, dear
    (When you go quiet, I hate myself)
    Don't think they get me, dear

    As an autistic person, I relate to the lyrics so much. I find it almost impossible to read social cues. Unless people say what they're feeling or what I need to do for them,I have a very hard time.
    One of the things I hate the most is when people get upset or go silent over something I did without explaining why it hurt them. Because since I rarely know how others feel about things, I'm clueless about my supposed wrongdoings. In that little window of silence,I hate myself more than the usual amount.

    As someone who is usually "the one who goes quiet" but has also occasionally been the "I hate myself" in one of these kinds of dynamics, this song really resonates. The whole idea of building a problem that isn't there, racking your brain trying to parse clues and signs that don't actually exist. My understanding of the video is that it's just about working on more effective, direct communication and how developing that interpersonal skill can be a way to lift yourself out of that anxious place of cyclical thinking (as represented by her elevating out of the dark, dusty post office and into the light at the end). Wonderful song + video.

    For me, this song is about overcoming struggles with mental health. Dodie has to practice being a good postwoman over and over again and it's difficult work. She fails a few times but eventually, she gets to the part where she is able to let go of the letters (maybe a representation of her thoughts) and sees the light at the end. I know there are lots of interpretations of this and I think it's beautiful that Dodie has been able to relate to so many through her music in so many ways!

    Lyrics!!
    Could it be different?
    Did I ruin the day?
    Oh do you look angry?
    Oh what did I say?
    Filling in the gaps
    Build a problem that
    Neither of us need
    Something wrong with me
    I'm getting desperate
    Losing my mind
    Oh how do we get here
    Every time?
    One will fold their arms
    One will do the dance
    Really is no need
    Something wrong with me
    No, I don't think
    I can help it
    (No)
    Oh so illogical
    I'm not magical
    I can't read your mind
    But how can you not hear
    The whole conversation I have sitting still with a brain on fire?
    I know it's a me thing
    Eyes closed isn't helping
    When you go quiet I hate myself
    When you go quiet I hate myself
    Look at you sideways
    Playing a game
    Oh what if I laugh now?
    I think I'm insane
    Filling in the gaps
    Build a problem that
    Neither of us need
    Something wrong with me
    Pushing a boundary
    Something to prove
    Strong expectation
    You already lose
    Oh one will fold their arms
    One will do the dance
    Really is no need
    Something wrong with me
    No, I don't think
    I can help it
    Oh so illogical
    I'm not magical
    I can't read your mind
    But how can you not hear
    The whole conversation I have sitting still with a brain on fire?
    I know it's a me thing
    Eyes closed isn't helping
    When you go quiet I hate myself
    When you go quiet I hate myself
    Give me a mystery
    Maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones
    Oh something here must be done
    I'm open and ready here
    I don't think they get me, dear
    I'm only proving how
    I'm only worth losing now
    Give me a mystery
    Maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones
    Something here must be done
    I'm open and ready here
    I don't think they get me, dear
    (When you go quiet I hate myself)
    I don't think they get me, dear
    Give me a mystery
    Maybe they'll bloom for me

      @@catvalentine4317 not at all! I didn’t mean to make people who are quiet guilty in anyway, I myself can be quiet a lot of the time and I completely understand the sentiment of not fully expressing yourself because you feel that your own feelings are not as important. I always seem to blame myself both ways, whether I’m being loud or quiet, my main issue being the fact that I overthink everything 😅 but I am also trying to improve on voicing my thoughts since I now know that I have people who want to hear them and I’m sure you do too! Sorry if this was presumptuous or invasive but best of luck to you in your journey to opening up😊

    As someone with anxiety dating someone with bipolar depression who has days where he goes nearly nonverbal, I hard relate to "When you go quiet, I hate myself."

    I have several half theories as to the meanings of things in this video.
    Sorting through mail = trying to sort out nonverbal "messages" from the other
    Trying to get better at sending the mail = trying to get better at expressing the conversations that swirl in your mind "on fire"
    The fact that she does get better and is in uniform at the end may represent her feeling that she's gotten better at communicating in relationships or at sorting through her thoughts that lead to her hating herself based on the silence of someone who matters to her.
    Ooh I think the intense physical training is representative of intense mental training because of having something like social anxiety. Or even just insecurity.

      And it’s such a ridiculous overreaction to posting letters to train for it Rocky style. So she is overthinking it to the point of it being silly because she wants everything to be exactly right. She overanalyses everything and feels like everyone’s happiness depends on her. That’s how I interpret it!

    One element of the postal service training I think is interesting is that from an outside perspective, it seems like a job that doesn't require a lot of effort, or at least the amount of effort that dodie is putting in during the video. And I think this means that the job choice is partly to emphasize that the average person does not look for these problems within their day to day to life or job. (Also many other interpretations and layers to it of course!)

    Lyrics!!
    Could it be different?
    Did I ruin the day?
    Oh, do you look angry?
    Oh, what did I say!?
    Filling in the gaps
    Build a problem that
    Neither of us needs
    Something wrong with me
    (Mmm-mmm-mmm)
    I'm getting desperate
    Losing my mind
    Oh, how do we get here
    Every time?
    One will fold their arms
    One will do the dance
    Really is no need;
    Something wrong with me
    No, I don't think
    I can help it
    (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!)
    (Nope)
    Oh, so illogical
    I'm not magical - I can't read your mind!
    But how can you not hear the whole conversation
    I have, sitting still with a brain on fire?
    I know - it's a me thing
    Eyes closed - isn't helping?
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    Look at you sideways
    Playing a game
    Oh what if I laugh now
    Think I'm insane
    Filling in the gaps
    Build a problem that
    Neither of us needs
    Something wrong with me
    Pushing a boundary
    Something to prove
    Strong expectation
    You already lose
    Oh, one will fold their arms
    One will do the dance
    Really is no need;
    Something wrong with me
    No, I don't think
    I can help it
    (K)
    Oh, so illogical
    I'm not magical - I can't read your mind!
    But how can you not hear the whole conversation
    I have, sitting still with a brain on fire?
    I know - it's a me thing
    Eyes closed - isn't helping?
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    When you go quiet, I hate myself
    Give me a mystery
    Maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones
    Oh, something that must be done
    I'm hoping I'm ready here
    Don't think they get me, dear
    I'm only proving how
    The moment we're losing now
    Give me a mystery
    Maybe they'll bloom for me
    It's always the quiet ones
    Something that must be done
    I'm hoping I'm ready here
    Don't think they get me, dear
    (When you go quiet, I hate myself)

  • @randomgirl2173
    @randomgirl2173 3 года назад +5

    Letters are a physical representation of people talking. The fact dodie is delivering letters could be a reference to her speaking and not receiving letters herself (not having a reply). This is definitely a push, but it seems like she gets better at delivering her letters (words) as the video and time progress. This is because she is starting to understand her fault (finding anxiety in other peoples silence) and has started to accept and explain it better. In writing this song we can see dodie is aware and therefore able to talk about the fault easier.
