Every Single Thing

Homeshake's 'Every Single Thing' delves into the complexities of feeling disconnected and out of touch with one's surroundings and relationships. The song's lyrics reflect a sense of internal conflict and distraction, where the protagonist finds it difficult to focus on the present moment and the people around them. The repeated line, 'I was dreaming as you spoke and not listenin' to you,' highlights a recurring theme of mental absence and the struggle to stay engaged in conversations and interactions.

The song also touches on the ease with which the protagonist falls into behaviors they know they shouldn't engage in, suggesting a sense of helplessness or inevitability. This is encapsulated in the line, 'Every single thing that I shouldn't do seems to come so natural.' This could be interpreted as a commentary on the human tendency to gravitate towards self-destructive habits or thoughts, even when aware of their negative impact.

Additionally, the lyrics explore the idea of seeking comfort and ease in the face of this disconnection. The question, 'Is there anything you need? Make you feel more comfortable, put your mind at ease,' suggests a desire to find solace or a way to bridge the gap between the protagonist and their surroundings. However, the repeated refrain of 'Every single thing' underscores the overwhelming nature of these thoughts and the difficulty in finding a resolution. Homeshake's mellow, introspective musical style complements the lyrical themes, creating a reflective and somewhat melancholic atmosphere that resonates with listeners who may have experienced similar feelings of disconnection and distraction.
