Silversun Pickups - It Doesn't Matter Why Lyrics
You hear us come and go
We know
You wonder if we're not alone
We're alone
You think about us all the time
Because it doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
We're just... known
You wanna read our minds
We know
Is it better on the other side
No
Will it help you sleep at night
And it doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
Should you stay or go
Go
Feeling like you're on your own
Unknown
Will we ever leave you alone
No
And it doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
And if it all goes right, you'll see in our eyes
We've finally made it out alive
Will you wait for a sign
It's time to have some peace of mind
Wait
You're on your own and in your eyes
You finally see we've all gone blind
Have we all gone blind
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known

They look like the nurses from silent hill.... And robin Williams is the lead singer....
Chel sent me here
FANTASTIC..well done...!!!!!
this is a great band, no doubt
is that the black kid from AP BIO??? Thats GOTTA be him lmao.
Carnavas was good, but this is pretty horrible. They've consistently gotten worse with every new release.
keep getting caught dancing to this at work lol
Any other OT's here for the proprioceptive stimuli?
Are they on acid or am I
I'm hearing these songs on loop. Please keep making such awesome music :-)
Silent Hill meets Gap commercial
If Roxette made a sound 2019 😎
Planet Fitness brought me here
Of course the song is amazing, but I really enjoyed the video. Something about the expressions and movements are captivating.
just saw them today in florida.. I AM SO SORRY, I DEFFO EXPECTED SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT. so disappointed...
I saw them there too and I thought they were great O: What were you expecting?
This video could’ve been just skinny goth kid and singing Jesus man , and it would have been great.
Welcome to NHL20!
And this is best music in game.
Best song on NHL 20 by a mile
Every time this song came on the radio at my shop, I would lose a few brain cells. Wasn't bad to listen to the first time, but seeing as it played 2-4 times a day, it got very *very* annoying....
I got a hug from the girl July 20TH because I saw them in concert and my friend got her to come over
incredibly underrated band
Its ROXETTE plagueatte
Y'all need to come to ATL again!!!
Nice music. Video don't like
NHL 20 brought me here. Great song. Cheers boys!
This is on NHL 20?? That's sick! It's odd this is the first year since 2014 I didn't buy NHL on release date... how is it??
Best game ever lol I say that because I love hockey but its also the best one EA has made to date in my opinion. I love it. Happy holidays everyone. Merry Christmas hohoho
Who knows who is she? 3:35
A banda mais viciante da minha playlist, essa e Straw Man são incríveis, me remetem os anos 80 e me trazem uma sensação que poucas bandas atuais e com mais sucesso produzem.
*I'm panicking and I'm not in the disco* okay
absolute great song....terrible video plus : the radio version is so much better
Did anyone else here this on NHL 20?
2:48 is the goods
Chel 20 🥶
Decent tune, fucking dogshit music video. Come to to think of it, I think that describes every decent tune from the last ten years!
There Back...yes! My Favorite Band. Let's Go!!!!
Don't look now but Silversun Pickups are BAAAAAAACCCCCCCKKKKKK , the new cd rocks
Just Epic of the tone of life.
Круто. Приезжайте в Минск)
After you realize Google, Apple, Facebook, and Amazon know you better than your therapist.
Brilliant song... but the video... hmmm...
They’ve done it again! :-)
NHL 20 anyone?
This band has some epic videos.
This isn’t one of them
PS4 NHL 20 SENT ME HERE!!!!!!!!!!
delightful, tks!
We need more music like this.
I here this song first time on NHL 20. Very nice. Greetings from Germany.
This music video is much better with eyes closed :D
Here from NHL 20! Nice sound 👍
I've been with them this band since the very beginning. Not Lazy Eye beginning, Carnavas beginning. Not many of us have, and I commend you on your excellent taste in music, I really agree with all the comments about his voice and the band continually getting better! Their sound keeps evolving and changing, unlike so many other bands who just repeat whatever worked for them in the past. And yes they are progressively
expanding into deeper realms of the universe...
Absolutely amazing! I love how their sound is constantly evolving and changing, each album just gets better and better <3
It doesn't matter why, we're known
Interpretation
At first I thought it was just a stylised weird choreographed video but after many watches I’ve realised It actually syncs surprisingly well with the lyrical themes.
The lyrics primarily concern themselves with the idea of disconnection in modern social connections. Perhaps Alluding to social media- continuing the theme from their earlier song “Connection” (from Better Nature).
Social media has kinda given us this view into other people’s lives while making us feel more alone:
“Feeling like you’re on your own - oh no”
“Is it greener on the other side? - No”
“will it help you sleep at night? -it won’t”
“It doesn’t matter why we’re known, we’re just known”
Ie. everyone is known to everyone but nobody truly connects with one and other.
The people start out opening their eyes and then try to connect with one and other, poking each other or attempting to embrace.
There’s also others on their own trying to move freely and finding themselves stuck, moving rigidly at the start in an uncomfortable way.
^ This movement is quite metaphoric of how we move through life, trying to form meaningful connections when technology creates uncomfortable barriers.
Some stare at their own hands, as if trying to make sense of themselves.
Towards the end with the lyrics
“And if it all goes right, you’ll see in our eyes”
We see people starting to transcend the disconnection: with smiles, fun dances and embraces made between people. This is a nice kind of watershed moment.
“Your on your own, and in your eyes - you finally see we’ve all gone blind!”
“Have we all gone blind?”
Then as this bridge ends we see some people blink as if they have realised some truth or reset their approach to how to connect ... while others lapse or remain disconnect from one and other, seemingly entranced.
As the song ends Brian puts his hand to his chest, a sort of way to say he hopes we take to heart the message.
Only song I can stand on NHL 20
Love the way they build their songs up..constantly getting bigger as the song goes on. Unreal band!
Love this clip
It looks like there's a Spencer Moore (Dan Decker in A.P. Bio) sighting in this music video and no one has mentioned it. What a shame.
Worst Gap ad ever.
I dont think i will ever comprehend why I love this this video so much
It captivates me every time I watch it
Came here from NHL20. People like this? Lol
I like. That's why I'm here
@vtt355 its only bad because of the rhyming of the same sound over and over again. Otherwise its decent
amazing, guys!
when finally they release another one amazing song, you was waiting for... and than Tool knocks on your door....
Greatest Song ever !
Toe Tapper
... wow...
That crazy ass hook provokes so many emotions that are UNMATCHED
It's a cross between going into a session with the bag, writing code, playing the drums, and planting flowers. I can dig it.
Any one else thing the best part of the song is that sound at 00:06?
good song stupid video
ooookay... that's enough free drugs
Great band!
masterpiece of a musicvideo! i like that very much!
Nhl20 brought me here. Awsome song.
It doesn't matter why we're just dumb... we're just dumb!!
tom petty and the heartbreakers – runnin’ down a dream cover?
gente de radio doble9
Most complete/strongest song of 2019 by far... FREAKING AWSOME!!!
3:35 I just wanna know who she is
The only reason why i know this song is because it plays over and over again at my work over the speaker 🙄
NHL20 brought me here.
You hear us come and go
We know
You wonder if we're not alone
We're alone
You think about us all the time
Don't
Because it doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
We're just known
You want to read our minds
We know
Is it better on the other side
No
Will it help you sleep at night?
It won't
And it doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
Should you stay or go?
Go!
Felling like you're on your own
Oh no!
Will we ever leave you alone?
No!
And it doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
And if it all goes right
Seen in your eyes
Finally made it out alive
Will you wait for a sign?
Still do have some piece of mind
Wait!
You let your love go
And in your eyes
We finally see we've all been blind
And we've all gone blind
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
It doesn't matter why we're known
We're just known
Who’s here because of NHL 2020? Lollll
Plastic music...
Bad vocalist's voice...
Pure shit
I make you fan and am happy.
Because I listen to such a wonderful music
From a Japanese fan
Fantastica ;)
This is cool!
From a great song in Lazy Eye to a lazy video for a great song.
2019 everyone, where people dance like they’re having seizers while at the same time high as fuck, as well as lyrics that make hardly any sense and makes it feel like this song is on repeat. It’s not gonna matter why they’re know because no one will really remember this song.
Amazing!!!
This song is sick. Who the fuck gave it a thumbs down?🤪🤪🤪🤪. Love this
This is awful
Reminds me of Royal We
It doesn't matter why we're gnomes, we're just gnomes.
it's a nice day for a...white wedding...
Sorry but every time this song comes on in the car I have to skip. Gives me a headache..
Best album since Swoon!
Awesome work, guys!
