Jason Mraz: Details In The Fabric Meaning

Details In The Fabric Lyrics

Calm down

Deep breaths

And get yourself dressed instead

Of running around

And pulling all your threads saying

Breaking yourself up



If it's a broken part replace it

If it's a broken arm then brace it

If it's a broken...

   This is purely my interpretation and probably isn't how this song was intended but it works for me.
   
   I've suffered with depression and anxiety for a long time. Most people that are acquainted with me think this just means I'm a bit sad sometimes. I get worked up about little things, brood on tiny details, worry myself about them and stress out completely. I wish I could help the way I am but I can't, if it was that easy I'd just pull myself together and stop feeling this way.
   
   This song sounds like somebody put together all the things my partner and my best friend say to me regularly and made a song out of them. The best bit is it's right. As long as I know who I am and I'm true to myself things always get better in the end.

   It's about advise of a friend.
   
   "Calm down
   Deep breaths
   And get yourself dressed instead
   Of running around
   And pulling on your threads
   And breaking yourself up"
   
   She's being overwhelmed by negative thoughts. Focusing on small negative things.
   
   "If it's a broken part, replace it
   If it's a broken arm, then brace it
   If it's a broken heart, then face it
   
   And hold your own
   Know your name
   And go your own way
   Hold your own
   Know your name
   And go your own way"
   
   Coz she is overwhelmed by her negative thinking on small details, she decided to copy other. Coz she think that they are perfect. so she said hold your own and know your name.
   
   "Hang on
   Help is on the way
   And stay strong
   I'm doing everything"
   
   
   
   Hold your own
   Know your name
   And go your own way
   Hold your own
   Know your name
   And go your own way
   
   And everything, everything will be fine
   Everything
   
   Are the details in the fabric
   Are the things that make you panic
   Are your thoughts results of static cling?
   
   Are the things that make you blow
   Hell, no reason, go on and scream
   If you're shocked it's just the fault
   Of faulty manufacturing.
   
   Everything will be fine
   Everything in no time at all
   Everything
   
   Hold your own
   And know your name
   And go your own way
   
   Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
   Are the things that make you panic
   Are your thoughts results of static cling? (Go your own way)
   
   Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
   Are the things that make you panic (Go your own way)
   Is it Mother Nature's sewing machine?
   
   Are the things that make you blow (Hold your own, know your name)
   Hell no reason go on and scream
   If you're shocked it's just the fault (Go your own way)
   Of faulty manufacturing
   
   Everything will be fine
   Everything in no time at all
   Hearts will hold

   I think it means that no matter what you believe in, how you act, who you love, and more. Just be you.

   To me this song is basically telling A story, A story on how to move on from this "situation" May It be A break up of, A loss of something with great value or meaning, And is telling you the ways to recover from this loss, Whatever it may be,And to hold in. Rather than hold on, In the song it's basically urging you to maintain your dignity and Pride and not let the situation get the best of you, And if you just put your mind to it..You can move on, From anything.No matter what the circumstances..You can make it through.

   the begining is about someone who is getting worked up about something that might not necessicarily be a big deal. it's saying to focus on other things besides your anger. the next part talks about how to fix the problem thats bugging the person by doing the simple thing to fix it and fend for themselves because theyre strong enough. the person helping them is trying their best to help them. the chorus is about how people focus on the little details and get all worked up for little pointless things. everything will be fine.
   my best guy friend told me to look up this song when i got upset once. now i love it.
