Do people realize this song is ironic? It's about lying to yourself trying to stay calm, like the sheeps at the doors of the slaughterhouse. Modest Mouse is actually a super bleak band.
I’ve been struggling with emotional pain for the past couple months and doing things to myself that nobody should do. Yesterday my girlfriend called me and told me that one of my best friends died. He killed himself. This was one of our favorite songs, and he introduced it to me. I wish he had listened to the message but it feels good to hear it again and I think that what he did made me realize that I need help. If you read this, which probably nobody will, thanks for your time, have a great day, if you feel that feeling please tell someone, and God bless you.
A few years back i was stuck in my home town in GA, ended up losing where I was staying, the girl I was seeing and my job in the span of two days. Ended up getting a pack on craigslist and went off to hitchhike to CO. Had a friend drop me off on the side of the road out in the boonies and I started my long walk. After the first bend this song came on my head phones and I remember just crying my eyes out, feeling the weight of those past years slide off of me and all the potential of a new adventure in front of me. This song always hits me hard.
the way i describe this song to people is by saying: "it's like that one part of a song that everyone agrees is the best part. but it's like the whole song."
I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well, he just drove off - sometimes life's okay
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, ah what did I say?
Well, you just laughed it off and it was all okay
And we'll all float on okay
And we'll all float on okay
And we'll all float on okay
And we'll all float on anyway, well
A fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam
It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand
Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work it way to all them plans
We both got fired on, exactly, the same day
Well, we'll float on, good news is on the way
And we'll all float on okay
And we'll all float on okay
And we'll all float on okay
And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Now don't you worry we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on alright
Don't worry we'll all float on
Alright, Already
And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on alright
Don't worry even if things end up a bit
Too heavy we'll all float on alright
Already, we'll all float on alright
Already, we'll all float on okay
Don't worry, even if things get heavy
We'll all float on alright
Already, we'll all float on
(Alright!)
Now don't you worry, we'll all float on
(Alright!)
We'll all float on
The comments on this video are pretty ironic, people remembering their past, how they originally found this song. About better times, but this song is actually about moving on after bad things and how we all just move on after all bad things. "Floating on."
We all have our troubles, but we will all float on okay, don't you worry. Even if things end up a bit heavy, we will all float on.
At least that's how I interpret it.
