The Neighbourhood – Sweater Weather lyrics

The Neighbourhood – Sweater Weather lyrics

[Verse 1]
All I am is a man
I want the world in my hands
I hate the beach
But I stand in California with my toes in the sand
Use the sleeves off my sweater
Lets have an adventure
Heads in the clouds but my gravity's centered
Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
You in those little high waisted shorts
Oh

[Pre-Chorus]
She knows what I think about
And what I think about
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirts, no blouse
Just us to find out
Nothing that I really wanna tell you about no

[Chorus]
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

[Verse 2]
And if I may just take your breath away
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides our minds
To move to a place so far away
The goosebumps start raise
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
And then I watched your face
Put my finger on your tongue
Cause you love the taste yeah
These hearts adore
All of the other beats heart is for
Inside this place is warm
Outside it starts to pour

[Pre-Chorus]
Coming down
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I really wanna tell you about
No no no

[Chorus]
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
Hold

[Bridge]
Whoa, whoa...
Whoa, whoa... whoa
Whoa, whoa... (x2)

[Chorus]
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

It's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

And it's too cold, it's too cold
The holes of my sweater...

So far, I've analyzed a fraction of the song, but I haven't made an official account, but here it is:.

“I hate the beach.
But I stand in California with my toes in the sand”
Given the fact that in the previous lyric, "I want the world in my hands", where he stated he wanted to overpower everybody and how he desired to be the main influencer of all actions, this could be quite ironic since he has to tolerate what has been provided for him and what is out of his control.
It sort of juxtaposes what he just said, I guess, and instead of controlling everything, he has to keep his head low and adapt to what he strongly dislikes. So, you can say he does not have much power over his life as he would prefer and he's bounded to that lifestyle.

“Heads in the clouds but my gravity's centered”
He sees what he wants to, creating goals way too far from his reach in a self-created reality (or what he was told the world would be before he set out for his own life and career), unlike the real world. "but my gravity's centred" shows how unfair he feels his expectations and ambitions are, and grieving on the lies he was told as he was told when he was younger, feeling pity for himself. It symbolizes how unbalanced both his aspirations and potential really are.
This could also link to the connection between "I want the world in my hands" and "I hate the beach but I stand in California with my toes in the sand." because he dreams to become large, powerful and overall someone memorable, yet this world offers so little and limits him to the life he has right now - suffering in a sort of way.

"All I am is a man, I want the world in my hands" Whenever this man wants something he can't control himself from taking it.
"Use the sleeves off my sweater, Let's have an adventure, Heads in the clouds but my gravity's centered" He is asking a girl if she wants to have sex and he isn't listening to her whether she says yes or no.
"She knows what I think about" She is fully aware that he wants to have sex.
"One love, two mouths, One love, one house" He loves her, but she doesn't love him. Its only one love.
"I don't mind if there's not much to say" He doesn't care that she is telling him no.
"The goosebumps start raise, The minute that my left hand meets your waist, And then I watched your face" She is starting to get scared because he is attempting to force her to have sex.
"Inside this place is warm, Outside it starts to pour" She has no means of escaping from him because the conditions outside are too bad.
"Sweater Weather" is a song that can easily be associated with rape and forced sex.
