Lyrics for There Goes My Outfit as interpreted by 735513

There Goes My Outfit Lyrics
All right, all right already you got me
Broke inside and took it all away
Had a speech prepared and everything
Tapped phone calls from God

And now I've found a new connection
Being bored is really such a chore
Some of us out here don't know shit
Some of us don't even want to know

Clearly this is my life
There goes, there goes, there goes my outfit
And I was only trying to help
I was only trying to help

Just admit, I've got you by the lapels
They trashed me over over and again
You stood there and you said nothing
That's what shattered my heart to bits

Clearly this isn't my life
I'm in the dirt and in the gutter
I've got mud and blood all over my face
Clearly this isn't my life
There goes, there goes, there goes, there goes my outfit
And I was only trying to help

Clearly this isn't my life
Clearly this can't be my life

I feel this song is about a relationship. Im going to say an intimate/significant other type not just a friendship.

Anyways, I think outfit is a metaphor for the persons reputation. "There goes, there goes, there goes my outfit" There goes my reputation..

That is why he says, "I'm in the dirt and in the gutter
I've got mud and blood all over my face" because the person has not defended the other and their ego/reputation (outfit) is tarnished.

Maybe I am reading into in too much haha

anyhow, they are broken because the person they love and are with has not defended them and it just broke their heart and they do not understand why. They know they are in this situation but at the same time can not believe it. Did noo see it coming.
If I am even a bit correct

This really is an amazing song. I see it as he is talking about a girl who has just ended their relationship and he can't understand why and he can't accept it. "You stood there and you said nothing
That's what shattered my heart to bits", thats what happened and then he says "I'm in the dirt and in the gutter", so he's depressed and feeling alone. He keeps saying "clearly this isn't my life" and it's like he's denying the whole thing, and its so hard for him to accept because he loved her.

i don't know... thats just what i see
