      Hell, I'm surprised they're as popular as they are. I'd never heard of them until Reddit brought me here, never once on the radio or in an ad or anything, but yet they have millions of views - just like a lot of of the bands I hear regularly on the radio. They deserve the popularity though, they're so damn amazing! I've been missing out for years.

    I'm not your nervous feeling
    Each time we say goodnight
    You picture buildings burning to the ground
    From the basement to the streetlight
    I'm not your drinking problem
    A hole is in the sky
    It's not your heart that you've been thinkin of
    Just the feeling like you're gonna die
    All you know how to do is
    Shake shake
    Keep your body still, keep your body still
    All you do is
    Shake shake shake
    Keep your body still, keep your body still
    I'm not your paranoia
    When someone's at the door
    Virgin fires calling out the throat of a body rising through the floor
    I'm not your fortune teller
    I'm not your spinning bed
    I'm never like you
    Uncomfortable too
    This is starting to fuck with my head
    All you know how to do is
    Shake shake
    Keep your body still, keep your body still
    All you do is
    Shake shake shake
    Keep your body still, keep your body still
    Don't you realize you're fine
    Oh can't you see that you're fine
    And know that you're still alive
    You know that you're still alive
    Oh don't you know you're alive
    Don't you know you're alive
    Burning in the sky

      from the basement *in the streetlight. the streetlight's basement, somehow?
      the buildings are burning to the ground from the fire started above? somehow? it's supposed to be like an illusion or like an impossible object, that later echoes in the second verse about the "virgin fires out the throat of a body rising through the floor"
      a torus. in the dude's mind, from the top out, and bottom out, because all he knows how to do is shake shake shake.

    This song will always remind me of moving out of NYC. All I think about when I hear it is how if I ever return, everything is going to be different. People will have grown and moved on without me, forgotten I ever existed, and how that terrifies me. But mostly, that even though I've found a love that compelled me to move out of the city, there is still that one person there that makes me think 'What if?'

    @chridzy3939 6 лет назад +1

    I always viewed this song as someone trying to comfort a loved one who suffered with anxiety, and not fully being able to understand why they go through what they do. It doesn’t have a lack of sympathy but feels frustrated with not being able to allow them to see reason. I’ve had friends with mental health problems and although the worst thing to do is to tell them to snap out of it it’s hard sometimes to watch them suffer and not have them see from your perspective that it will be ok and that they don’t need to struggle. It sounds ignorant, as I have struggled with patches of anxiety myself and knew I was unreachable to many in that period. To me this song captures that sense of not being able to get through and help someone the way you want to. Even bough from your eyes it may seem simple, it is impossible to see in an anxious state. It also captures how draining it can be deal with someone struggling with mental health problems (which isn’t to blame the victim, it’s just a fact in the same way it is draining to deal with someone with the flu. We will always do it, but it can be emotionally and physically exhausting.) i like that, because it’s imperfect, and I know we all go through times where we just wish our loved ones could stop suffering, just like that. I don’t think it is what the song is about, I’ve heard many say they think it’s someone who has anxiety and is trying to rationalise with themselves, which is also very probable and something I have done myself.

    To me, this song is a direct message about what is intuition, helpful and what isn't. She's speaking it out plain as day as she usually does as poetic as it comes out. Phantogram is magical & human all at once.

    Phantogram think are worthy heirs and successors of the style of music that created bands like Cocteau Twins or IR and other bands like that during the nineties. Of course Phantogram have achieved their own wonderful style.

    I don't know if it's overthinking, but I believe this song is about depression and suicide. It fits with Sarah Barthel story: her sister committed suicide and during a concert she admitted that most of their songs are about her. The girl is blonde and looks a lot like her sister.
    The cube looks like the ghost of depression itself. It has a mantel because that represents an human being, a voice (or death itself) who judges and talks with her. She tried to make contact but she hurts herself (blood on finger), she didn't realize what it is going on yet. Once she tried to focus it, the cube falls into "water" (in her subconscious) and became deeper. So depression came to life again with a black mantel. Behind the girl there are 3 other people (3 is a multiple meanings number, in my opinion they could represent the fear of time she leaves behind herself, made of "past", "present" and "future"). Now comes the rope. She is trapped now. In the car death drives, on right there is the fear of "present time" because she is still alive but she is going to kill herself far from home and when she looks at that figure she is really frightened because she has fear to do it but now she cannot stop the process. This could have been a dream, but she wakes up in a bed in the center of the bedroom (not with a side at wall, that makes her feel anxious and like still dreaming). In fact she is floating and she is drived away. She tried to take control again on depression, embrancing the cube, trying to accepting it, but it has grown too much. Next she is again in car and she get confused when she watches herself outside running in "alternative way", "alive" in a way she is not drived out and she can go where she wants. That's the part in the song that says: "why don't you know you're alive". She is her alternative herself. She faced the cube depression that now is huge and enormous. She is determinated now. She focuses on it and clenches her fist, this action represents courage and strenght. So she manages to destroy the cube and with it all the 3 masked fears fade out. Then she returns home and she finally can take the cube because it is part of herself but she can control it again. Last, with cube in her hand she turns the head to you (who watch the videoclip right now) warning you about that story. Sorry for my bad English und multiple fails. I hope someone else got the same meaning out of this videoclip and that I'm not totally crazy.
    That's, plus, how I have read the lyrics:
    "I'm not your nervous feeling
    Each time we say goodnight" (she has fear of the night and she has fear to be alone)
    "All I have to do is shake, shake" (she has to awake from this nightmare and feel alive again)
    "Keep your body still" (don't hurt yourself, don't kill yourself)
    "I'm not your paranoia
    When someone's at the door" (I can't hurt you like your social anxiety does, please trust me)
    "There's a fast calling out of a throat of a body rising through the floor" (this looks like someone dying)
    "I'm not your fortune teller
    I'm not your spirit guide" (I cannot give you a way out)
    "I'm never like you" (I can't feel what you feel)
    "Uncomfortable to
    This is starting to fuck with my head" (and that makes me so mad, this drives me crazy)
    "All I have to do is shake shake" (I must remember to feel alive)
    "Don't you realize you're fine
    Or can't you see that you're fine
    And you know you're still alive
    You know that you're still alive
    Why don't you know you're alive
    Why don't you know you're alive "(why can't you believe me that it can be all ok?)

      THE SONG IS ABOUT SELF SABOTAGE AND ESCAPISM. IT IS HOW MANY KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AND TAKE THE ROAD OF VICTIMHOOD TO NOT ADDRESS THE THINGS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED. THE LYRICS ARE ALL ABOUT THE FEARS AND DOUBTS WE ALL HAVE AND HOW WE SHOULD NOT BE CO-DEPENDANT ON THOSE. THE SONG IS ABOUT BEING GROUNDED AND STILL IN YOUR MIND AND IN YOUR BODY.
