Feels Like Trouble

The Technicolors' song 'Feels Like Trouble' delves into the complexities of a relationship that is both alluring and fraught with uncertainty. The lyrics paint a picture of a connection that is mystifying and intense, yet inherently unstable. The opening lines, 'Met you on a Friday mystified / Heard you found the world / But where's the prize for me?' suggest a sense of wonder and curiosity, but also a feeling of being left out or unfulfilled. This sets the tone for a relationship that is both captivating and elusive.

The recurring theme of light and darkness throughout the song serves as a metaphor for clarity and confusion within the relationship. Lines like 'I've only ever seen the light / The space that lies between your eyes / And me' highlight the emotional distance and the struggle to truly understand one another. The chorus, 'We're not dressed to belong / We're not meant to move on / You can't take me along / But I know that you wanna,' encapsulates the tension between wanting to stay together and the realization that they might not be meant for each other.

The song also explores the idea of taking risks and stepping out of one's comfort zone. The lines 'I played safe for too long / I'm not meant to move on / I wanna feel you all wrong / Until it feels like trouble' suggest a desire to embrace the chaos and uncertainty of the relationship, even if it leads to trouble. This reflects a yearning for a deeper, more authentic connection, despite the potential for emotional turmoil. The Technicolors use vivid imagery and emotional depth to convey the bittersweet nature of a relationship that is both magnetic and precarious.
