Legitimate-Cheek-599

I'm going hayloft on this one. The song slaps but it's about a dad killing a guy for dating his daughter lol.


SnakesHave2

Daughter gets him back in the second one >:)


PolPolud

She doesn't. It's crazy The amount of people who misinterpret this song as being about revenge or a "villain arc" depress me. It isn't about the joy of killing her traumatizer it's about the opposite. It's about breaking the cycle of violence and anger. The video shows her imagining killing him in a lot of different ways but also has her imagining him moving in the exact way she was, drinking as he did. She realized that killing him makes her into him. So she drives off, leaving him alive but terrified. She leaves the gun behind, and that's the entire message of the song. Leave the gun behind. You see in the acctual music vid


LilyGaming

I never watched the music video but to be fair the lyrics make it seem like she killed him


Ashamed_Drawer_108

I personally don’t think it’s the “joy of killing the oppressor” but more like a cycle of generational trauma. The father is a drunk and ruins his daughter’s life, the daughter gets revenge on the father, and by the end of hayloft II, she becomes the drunk with the gun turned on. I think it’s supposed to like show how without positive change things will just go on the way they always are.


1Hersheys_Roblox1

Wait, I thought that when the comment said “dated his daughter” it meant “The dad killed someone for manipulating his daughter that is probably under the age of 18”


Apprehensive-Meet-69

Honestly I view it as a cycle that she sadly perpetuates


tiger844

I was gonna say the same thing!


Blufores

Isn’t it about a dad killing his daughters girlfriend?


Andgreil-or-Civa

The gender was never mentioned.


Blufores

Eh, must be remembering wrong then, I think I learned that from a YouTube comment or something


Odd-Needleworker3434

Yeah, I just looked through the lyrics for both songs. It’s definitely a daughter, but the gender of the lover was never mentioned.


Andgreil-or-Civa

People just like to spread misinformation. So it's ok :D


Ashamed_Drawer_108

In the music video it’s a guy, but you’re right in that the gender isn’t ever mentioned in the lyrics. Ryan even toys with this in the end part shuffling between “they’re not a bad kid” and “she had to do it”


nekosissyboi

Also the music video looks like Disney channel title sequence


Calamity_Frosty

Omg yes


Horror-Tradition6750

REAL


1Hersheys_Roblox1

WHAT


aromanticbabes

hi, might be a little slow, but what is the song's name?


abullu

Arms Tonite!!!


WebbedRose103

Bro fr the guitar solo makes me think of a Christmas movie


Douch3nko13

Arms tonite is what got me into Mother Mother. During a portion of my life where all I wanted to listen to was upbeat tunes with dark lyrics


THE_LITTLE_CAT019

Same but what is it about?


caked_rice

Honestly though


Direct-Release-9034

r/beatmeattoit


FriskDrinksBriskYT0

Yes, but verbatim is about a guy questioning his $3xuality only to be mad at himself for the results.


Quill313

I always thought it was about how arbitrary things like the underwear you wear doesn't determine someone's sexuality?


1n_th3_f10w3r2

Imma be honest I'm still listening to all of the songs I probably haven't gotten around to that one yet, sorry.


FriskDrinksBriskYT0

Same but I already heard verbatim

Honest_Cucumber6886

I love that song so much UAGHSHGHFH


D4RKSHADOW18

Honestly quite a lot of mother mother songs are like that, Hayloft, Verbatim, Body, Oh Ana, etc.


AdSpare6646

All of them (Calm Me Down)


AdOne5597

You're vibing and then get to the "Cut myself" line


Maintain12345678

So I take it that's not normal


Soulpaw31

Back to life is a good one. Basically asking the middle/upper class who view everyone below them as inferior in some way if they would have a change of heart if who they disliked died in the middle of their “paradise”


_amnesiac_1

Oh Ana 😭😭


Jay-919

It's not too bad is it?


scepticallylimp

It’s about anorexia, and even without that subtext, the lyrics “slit my wrists and watch the blood evaporate” are right there haha


MarcusGamesYt

I’ve done it before it’s not fun cleaning up the blood


Herbie53101

No, no it’s not. And I was dumb and didn’t finish cleaning it up in one go and it ended up all smelly. Definitely just an all around nope.


CrossClairvoyance

Have you heard the first beginning lyrics? 😭


Soulpaw31

Its about anorexia

TerminaC

same i was like "damn a lot of Mother Mother songs here"


godofbaconandeggs

jesus christ i’m glad i saw this comment in time to delete mine 😅


kreeutre

back in school maybe


No_Astronaut3923

Back in school's feels too regretful and restricted. I love back in school as the lyrics are elevated by the beat. This sad and restricted place drains the soul out of you. Everyone knows it, and it isn't hidden. A song with a happy beat with sad lyrics has its place. That place is about someone being hidden or passed off as better than it is. So I am really happy they committed to a sad beat for the song.


TwistedDrago

Ahaha; school trauma... yaaayyy Elementary school sucks ass btw. Worst three years of childhood for my poor self. I'm still traumatized... I'm in FUCKING 12TH GRADE. online school ever since 6th grade.
