Then It All Goes Away

Dayglow's song 'Then It All Goes Away' delves into the complexities of trust and communication within a relationship. The lyrics reflect a sense of confusion and doubt, as the narrator grapples with the inconsistency between words and actions. The repeated lines, 'I know the things that you’ve been talking about, and sometimes I can’t ever believe what you say,' highlight the struggle to reconcile what is being said with what is being felt. This dissonance creates a feeling of unease and suspicion, suggesting that something is amiss despite reassurances to the contrary.

The song captures the cyclical nature of these doubts, as the narrator notes, 'Even though we’ve been circling around it since forever, and forever.' This line emphasizes the repetitive and unresolved nature of their concerns, indicating that these issues have been lingering for a long time. The phrase 'Then it all goes away' serves as a poignant reminder of the transient nature of these moments of clarity and connection. Just as quickly as the narrator perceives a problem, it seems to vanish, leaving them in a state of uncertainty once more.

Dayglow, known for his indie-pop sound, often explores themes of introspection and emotional complexity in his music. 'Then It All Goes Away' is no exception, blending upbeat melodies with introspective lyrics to create a song that is both catchy and thought-provoking. The juxtaposition of the lively instrumentation with the weighty subject matter underscores the tension between outward appearances and inner turmoil, making the song resonate on multiple levels.
