Disciples
Ofln - Tame Impala Lyrics

And I had no idea
What that feeling could do to you
And I could tell you changed
By the people around you
I used to take the long way
Just so I could walk past your door
I used to wait outside
But I guess I won't anymore

There's so much I wanna tell you
So much I wanna tell you

The lyrics in "Disciples" by Tame Impala are about a complicated relationship where one person is unsure and reserved while the other is outgoing and seeking validation from others. The singer is hesitant to reveal their true feelings to this person but feels comfortable doing so with them. The other person, however, has changed due to the influences around them and now walks around with an air of entitlement. The singer reminisces about simpler times when they could be themselves around this person, but now fears that if they go back to that, they will lose them.

The lyrics are introspective and reflect the internal conflict of wanting to be honest with someone but also fearing the consequences of doing so. The singer longs for the past where they could be themselves without fear of judgment or rejection. The other person has changed, and the singer struggles with accepting the new version of them. Despite this, there is still a desire to open up and communicate, as evidenced by the repeated line "so much I wanna tell you."

Overall, the song explores the complexities of human relationships and the struggles that come with trying to connect with someone when it feels like they have changed or moved on from the relationship.

Cause I was still unsure
I was hesitant and uncertain.

But it's something I'm used to
My indecisiveness is a familiar feeling.

And I can tell by your face
Your facial expression gives away your emotions.

No one's ever been rude to you
You're not used to being treated poorly.

But I can tell you things
I trust you with my deepest thoughts and secrets.

That I can't say to anyone
There are things I can only share with you.

And you came home today
You returned to your usual surroundings.

But you didn't stay very long
You left quickly and unexpectedly.

Now it's like the world owes you
You act entitled and deserving of special treatment.

Walking around like everybody should know you
You act as if you're famous and well-known.

I wanna be like we used to
I miss the way our relationship was before.

But now you're worried cause that means we'd lose you
You're afraid that being close again will push you away.

And I had no idea
I was unaware of the impact.

What that feeling could do to you
I didn't realize the effect my actions had on you.

And I could tell you changed
You're a different person now.

By the people around you
Your behavior is influenced by those you surround yourself with.

I used to take the long way
I would go out of my way.

Just so I could walk past your door
To see you and be near you.

I used to wait outside
I would wait patiently for you.

But I guess I won't anymore
I've given up on trying to see you.

There's so much I wanna tell you
I have a lot to share with you.

So much I wanna tell you
I have a lot to say but don't know how to express it.
