Details In The Fabric Lyrics

Calm down

Deep breaths

And get yourself dressed instead

Of running around

And pulling all your threads saying

Breaking yourself up



If it's a broken part replace it

If it's a broken arm then brace it

If it's a broken...

    This is purely my interpretation and probably isn't how this song was intended but it works for me.

    I've suffered with depression and anxiety for a long time. Most people that are acquainted with me think this just means I'm a bit sad sometimes. I get worked up about little things, brood on tiny details, worry myself about them and stress out completely. I wish I could help the way I am but I can't, if it was that easy I'd just pull myself together and stop feeling this way.

    This song sounds like somebody put together all the things my partner and my best friend say to me regularly and made a song out of them. The best bit is it's right. As long as I know who I am and I'm true to myself things always get better in the end.

    It's about advise of a friend.

    "Calm down
    Deep breaths
    And get yourself dressed instead
    Of running around
    And pulling on your threads
    And breaking yourself up"

    She's being overwhelmed by negative thoughts. Focusing on small negative things.

    "If it's a broken part, replace it
    If it's a broken arm, then brace it
    If it's a broken heart, then face it

    And hold your own
    Know your name
    And go your own way
    Hold your own
    Know your name
    And go your own way"

    Coz she is overwhelmed by her negative thinking on small details, she decided to copy other. Coz she think that they are perfect. so she said hold your own and know your name.

    "Hang on
    Help is on the way
    And stay strong
    I'm doing everything"



    Hold your own
    Know your name
    And go your own way
    Hold your own
    Know your name
    And go your own way

    And everything, everything will be fine
    Everything

    Are the details in the fabric
    Are the things that make you panic
    Are your thoughts results of static cling?

    Are the things that make you blow
    Hell, no reason, go on and scream
    If you're shocked it's just the fault
    Of faulty manufacturing.

    Everything will be fine
    Everything in no time at all
    Everything

    Hold your own
    And know your name
    And go your own way

    Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
    Are the things that make you panic
    Are your thoughts results of static cling? (Go your own way)

    Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
    Are the things that make you panic (Go your own way)
    Is it Mother Nature's sewing machine?

    Are the things that make you blow (Hold your own, know your name)
    Hell no reason go on and scream
    If you're shocked it's just the fault (Go your own way)
    Of faulty manufacturing

    Everything will be fine
    Everything in no time at all
    Hearts will hold

    I think it means that no matter what you believe in, how you act, who you love, and more. Just be you.

    my interpration is that his friend's house he was living in just burnt down so he was trying to make his friend feel better.

    To me this song is basically telling A story, A story on how to move on from this "situation" May It be A break up of, A loss of something with great value or meaning, And is telling you the ways to recover from this loss, Whatever it may be,And to hold in. Rather than hold on, In the song it's basically urging you to maintain your dignity and Pride and not let the situation get the best of you, And if you just put your mind to it..You can move on, From anything.No matter what the circumstances..You can make it through.

    the begining is about someone who is getting worked up about something that might not necessicarily be a big deal. it's saying to focus on other things besides your anger. the next part talks about how to fix the problem thats bugging the person by doing the simple thing to fix it and fend for themselves because theyre strong enough. the person helping them is trying their best to help them. the chorus is about how people focus on the little details and get all worked up for little pointless things. everything will be fine.
    my best guy friend told me to look up this song when i got upset once. now i love it.
