The song discusses the futility of trying to chase after nostalgic interests or to keep everything you like the same. You can “chase down” the past but ultimately things will end up changing. Even you, yourself will end up different so your best bet is just accepting change and learning to live with it.
@@flamangoYTpretty good i have more than a decade of art experiance which is cool but im still writing it which isnt something im use to, i have a google doc of a good 75 ish pages tho so im hoping to start soon this is an idea ive been sitting on for about 6 years
I love that line, "Commonplace things seem to have great significance" I couldn't remember which song quoted that though, and it took me a few tries to find it. Guess you could say I had to chase it down.
I am conflicted: I love this band so much, and it saddens me that they're not really popular, however; I want to keep them all for myself 💞💞 they don't have a single bad song
Lyrics Common place things seem to have great significance Hi Turn around your life or we'll change Without your consent Without your okay It happened again I woke up today And everything changed All my friends and all my family Suddenly don't understand me Understand I'm not the man they think I am Try chasin' it down Try chasin' it down Try chasin' it down It don't wanna be found It don't wanna be found It don't wanna be found Favorite day but favorite waitress Favorite place It's up in flames, it's up for sale It doesn't matter anyhow Like any thing that tasted sweet It only tastes that way About a week Before at best Gone bittersweet Try chasin' it down Try chasin' it down Try chasin' it down It don't wanna be found It don't wanna be found It don't wanna be found Abigail, oh baby girl You had a name that said itself But funny, how'd the name get changed About the time you find your singer sayin' it Sayin' it Sayin' it Sayin' it We had a thing so lovely Took every last part of me But funny, once you're into it We all encompass things just as a part of it Part of it Part of it Part of it Try to get back there Try to get back there Try to get back there Try to get back there It's a one shot deal One shot deal It's a one shot deal Turn around your life or we'll change Without your consent Without your okay All my friends and all my family Suddenly don't understand me Understand I'm not the man they think I am Oh, where'd it go?

I feel like maybe this song could be about someone who is having a hard time figuring out their sexual orientation and/or gender identity. They "change without your consent" The speaker "Tr[ies] chasin' it down" But "It don't wanna be found" Also, one day, the speaker wakes up and "everything changed" Also significant: "Like any thing that tasted sweet It only tastes that way About a week" There ya go
nice catch! the "Abigail, oh baby girl / You had a name that said itself / But funny, how'd the name get changed / About the time you find your sick of sayin' it" could also refer to a trans person starting to dislike their deadname
I just discovered them the other day and I have been physically unable to listen to anyone/anything else since!!!! I'm not complaining though, I love it.

Comments under this video say "Abigail, oh baby girl". TH-cam Music's lyrics say "Abigail, play Miguel". I hear "Abigail, oh baby 'gail". I'm confused which it is.
I know this song isn’t about being trans, but honestly it’s an anthem to me. Mainly because a lot of the nostalgia message speaks to me in the way that things aren’t the same, and old memories lose their relevance as time goes on. Especially with family. My family keeps chasing the old me, when I’ve grown and my identity has grown with me. Changing. Everything is always changing, and nostalgia will always exist in every part of everyone. We all have to acknowledge that things will never be the same, but we’re allowed to cherish those old memories.
Wait is it me or is this song about transidentity ? With the name change, the family who doesn't understand... That's... That's so cool ! My aro heart was happy after The Knack but the trans folks' one must be thrilled !
Just saw these guys on a whim last night and was blown away. What a fucking performance. These guys are rock stars.

Common place things seem to have great significance
Hi
Turn around your life or we'll change
Without your consent
Without your okay
It happened again
I woke up today
And everything changed
All my friends and all my family
Suddenly don't understand me
Understand I'm not the man they think I am
Try chasin' it down
Try chasin' it down
Try chasin' it down
It don't wanna be found
It don't wanna be found
It don't wanna be found
Favorite day but favorite waitress
Favorite place
It's up in flames, it's up for sale
It doesn't matter anyhow
Like any thing that tasted sweet
It only tastes that way
About a week
Before at best
Gone bittersweet
Try chasin' it down
Try chasin' it down
Try chasin' it down
It don't wanna be found
It don't wanna be found
It don't wanna be found
Abigail, oh baby girl
You had a name that said itself
But funny, how'd the name get changed
About the time you find your singer sayin' it
Sayin' it
Sayin' it
Sayin' it
We had a thing so lovely
Took every last part of me
But funny, once you're into it
We all encompass things just as a part of it
Part of it
Part of it
Part of it
Try to get back there
Try to get back there
Try to get back there
Try to get back there
It's a one shot deal
One shot deal
It's a one shot deal
Turn around your life or we'll change
Without your consent
Without your okay
All my friends and all my family
Suddenly don't understand me
Understand I'm not the man they think I am
Oh, where'd it go?

Oh, where'd it go?
Oh
Oh, try chasin' it down (Oh, where'd it go?)
Try chasin' it down (Oh, where'd it go?)

I'm pretty sure it's "Turn around, your life will change"

They "change without your consent"
The speaker "Tr[ies] chasin' it down"
But "It don't wanna be found"
Also, one day, the speaker wakes up and "everything changed"
Also significant: "Like any thing that tasted sweet
It only tastes that way
About a week"
There ya go
i think its pretty mutch everything someone want to hide for the scare of rejection
I thought it was about rape
nice catch! the "Abigail, oh baby girl
/ You had a name that said itself /
But funny, how'd the name get changed
/ About the time you find your sick of sayin' it" could also refer to a trans person starting to dislike their deadname
i really like this interpretation
"Suddenly my family doesn't understand me
Doesn't understand I'm not the man they think I am"
honestly my favourite mother mother song
damn i used to be a huge fan of this band eight years ago. Feel good to rediscover this album after all this time !
If anyone thinks they like the lyrics, go listen to the album "touch up" it's great
I just discovered them the other day and I have been physically unable to listen to anyone/anything else since!!!! I'm not complaining though, I love it.
Just stumbled on this while listening to Crystal Castles. I'm glad I did not regret it. I have new tunes to enjoy.
I did the opposite aha no regrets!

People whom only know this song through Hayloft make me sad.... I mean Hayloft is pretty good but they have other songs !!
Ha if only I had an idea what the lyrics mean
I think it means trying to stay in the past rather than move on with your life because you were happier back then than you are now.
