#Poladroid imagine dragons update
How much do you think I update my Instagram account with the hope that I look cool to the outside world? I’ll give you a hint: it’s a lot.
On those days when we feel like we don’t measure up, we can sing along to this verse.Īll my life I’ve been livin’ in the fast laneĬan’t slow down, I’m a rollin’ freight trane It seems he either feels too much or too little. Reynolds is labeling himself with not-too-flattering descriptors. We all have those days when we feel less than. The playful tune, however, doesn’t subtract what Reynolds is singing about. The instrumentation is almost puerile, with hand-clapping and a toy piano. The shows he puts on every night are just that – a show.įrom their sophomore album “Smoke + Mirrors,” “Polaroid” is a jaunty tune that sings absent-mindedly about our hero’s shortcomings. He’s lived most of his life with an autoimmune disease that can cause some pretty serious pain. But even though he’s a pretty well known pop star, he has his own struggles. No one’s ever is.ĭay Twenty-Eight: Polaroid – Imagine Dragonsĭan Reynolds looks like he has it together (I mean, have you SEEN him?) He’s got a great band that’s been in the mainstream for the last six years or so, and they fill arenas on every tour.
And when they tell me I have my life together, I’m flabbergasted, because it’s simply not true. I could argue, however, that people might look at my life and see that too. I don’t exactly remember what it was, but it was something along the lines of “you can’t see the whole picture.” Even after that, I was jealous. “You have such a cool life,” I said, with the cry emoji. After a particularly stunning photoshoot, I replied to her Instagram story. Everyone wanted to hear what she had to say.īut I didn’t know everything.
Her life seemed so good. Everyone wanted to be her friend. You bet your biscuits I got extremely jealous. She was always announcing exciting things on Facebook, sharing gorgeous photoshoots on Instagram, and seemed to have five times more influence at our university than I did. But I didn’t know her well enough to be the judge of that. I used to have a friend who seemed to live a charmed life. It’s not glamorous at all.īut we like to make it look glamorous. The stress of paying bills on time, of getting to work on time, maintaining friendships, relationships, trying to remember what you need to buy at the grocery store. But people don’t always know what goes on behind all that. On the outside, I might look like I have it together. I haven’t had my life together since 2006. I looked at them like, seriously? I was not the person who had their life together. Not that long ago, a friend of mine asked how I had my life together so well. it can't fix you're faults.Sometimes people take selfies to feel popular. It doesn't make you feel like less of a failure. Love is not what you'd hoped it would be. They are never good enough for themselves but they work on it constantly. Perfection is probably what this person strives for but there's always a step up.always something more they want. Who tends to be a bit more planned out and "perfect". I think when he refers to person B, "the pay raise always a touch out of view." He's describing someone he loves. They live for the moment but also feel a lot of guilt and disappointment with themselves and their behavior.which probably causes them to act more recklessly. They live kind of fast paced.without much thought. Person A is someone who feels like a destructive force. If person B was a painting they'd be the mother fucking Mona Lisa. Person A "the color of boom" and person B "the opera always on time and in tune" If person A were a painting they would be some odd emotional abstract thing, splattered on a large canvas. To me this song describes two people who are in love. All my life, I've been living in the fast laneĬan't slow down, I'm a rolling freight train
