1975, The - Sincerity Is Scary Lyrics






And irony is ok, I suppose, culture is to blame
You try and mask your pain in the most postmodern way
You lack substance when you say something like "oh what a shame"
It's just a self-referential way that stops you having to be human
I'm assuming you'll balloon when you remove the dirty spoon
And start consuming like a human, that's what I am assuming

I'm sure that you're not just another girl
I'm sure that you're gonna say that that was sexist
I feel like you're running out of all the things I liked you for

Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in
"I've just got one more thing to say"

And why would you believe you could control how you're perceived
When at your best you're intermediately versed in your own feelings?
Keep on putting off conceiving, it's only you that you're deceiving
Oh, don't have a child, don't cramp your style, I'll leave it

Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in
"I've just got one more thing to say"

I'm just pissed off because you pied me off
After your show when you let go
Of my hand in front of some sket
Who wanted bit on your
Nah, I'm just messing

1975, The Sincerity Is Scary Comments
  1. S.... D....

    Not a big fan of the style of this one, but the message is good

  2. F.... C....

    Where's rome?

  3. l.... p....

    This song is played during the opening chat of Terrace House Tokyo 2019-2020's

  4. e.... r....

    I LOVE THEM. BTS AND THR 1975 THE ONLY GROUP 💜 NO HATE

  5. J.... P....

    OMG WHO NOTICED THE GUY WHO HOLD THE DALMATIAN? ;)) HEHEHE LIKE IF U KNOW HIM

  6. c.... c....

    hi, at 1:30 they do a little dance move that they also kind of do in 'a change of heart' at "you used to have a face straight out of a magazine"

  7. P.... ....

    When Matty walked out the door I said 🤭
    And then when No Rome appeared and they high fived I said
    😳

  8. R.... M....

    God! This is already over a year? Time flies so fast.

  9. P.... T....

    :50 no rome?

  10. j.... r....

    I love
    it

  11. C.... �....

    LOVE YOU

  12. D.... ....

    "Kobawan Terrace House..."

  13. A.... N....

    I see no rome with a dog. Omo

  14. *.... *....

    I just noticed the man on the spacesuit was No Rome
    I am very disappointed in myself :(

  15. A.... F....

    Terrace House brought me here

  16. T.... t....

    This beat is so sick… R they influenced by J Dilia?

    T.... t....

    yes, big time. They also have a song called so far its alright which uses a direct sample of a j dilla song.

  17. �.... ....

    2:35 is this Ross?

  18. Q.... C....

    We all think about being the guy in the video. None of us are though. I see the beauty in everyone including myself. The world and I keep me from exposing that.

  19. z.... z....

    So, the "matty" before is like having more sense as to why "a change of heart" happen to matty now.

    The song started playing when matty put his headphones on his ears, so maybe all the things that happened while sincerity is scary is playing is just an imagination. It's just that when there's music, people aren't that scared to be more genuine and sincere.

  20. U.... P....

    if youre reading this...







    then you read this

  21. S.... :....

    Is it just me or was the thumbnail different when they initially uploaded this?

  22. D.... R....

    Who is here because of Terrace House? :D

  23. P.... ....

    Terrace house

  24. A.... ....

    Julia, if you're reading this I miss you. There's alot I regret even though we didnt have many moments. I always think about you when I listen to the 1975 since they were your favorite band. I remember all your stories about your mom and the Philippines. Your music taste AND perspective were amazing just like you. I should have been with you. Here's to what could have been

  25. D.... M....

    ugh i love this song

  26. J.... B....

    👍👍👍

  27. P.... W....

    I need his yellow cardigan at the start

  28. c.... m....

    It’s PVC! PogU

  29. �.... ....

    いまだに思い出。

  30. T.... S....

    I came to this video when they were still shooting it "it's not living if it's not with you " 🙄

  31. V.... L....

    Has the thumbnail changed?

  32. E.... S....

    What would have been really cool is if you could see another Matty behind the green railing. That would Connect Sincerity Is Scary to It's Not Living. I still love the idea that in the It's not Living video, Matty is watching himself do this video. Imagine if you could see him do that in this video though and if you blinked, you would miss it.

  33. N.... ....

    Anyone know if guy in the background at 0:53 is a reference to Shia Labeouf?

  34. E.... P....

    i get anxiety just seeing the title of this song- it really is

  35. M.... G....

    Damn, Matty got the football tekkers.

  36. L.... C....

    0:51 No Rome? Anyone?

  37. M.... B....

    How to learn to love jazz?.. Just listening this song!!! I love it!!!

  38. L.... C....

    Isn't anyone going to mention that he forgot to make up the bed?

  39. O.... o....

    このゆるっとした感じたまらん。

  40. H.... T....

    I WANT THE FUCKING HAT

    Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
    Because it always ends with us hating each other
    Instead of calling me out, you should be pulling me in

    Why would you believe you could control how you're perceived

  60. p.... o....

    matty always captivates me by his dancing

  61. J.... ....

    And irony is okay, I suppose
    Culture is to blame
    You try and mask your pain in the most postmodern way
    You lack substance when you say
    Something like, "Oh, what a shame"
    It's just a self-referential way
    That stops you havin' to be human
    I'm assumin' you'll balloon
    When you remove the dirty spoon
    And start consumin' like a human
    That's what I am assumin'
    I'm sure that you're not just another girl
    I'm sure that you're gonna say that that I was sexist
    I feel like you're runnin' out
    Of all the things I liked you for
    Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
    'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
    Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in
    I've just got one more thing to say
    And why would you believe you could control how you're perceived
    When at you're best you're intermediately versed in your own feelings?
    Keep on putting off conceiving

    I've just got one more thing to say
    I'm just pissed off because you pied me off
    After your show when you let go of my hand
    In front of some sket who wanted to bitch
