'Helvetica' is about the fear of being stuck in your hometown. Its the fear of not moving up in life and being stuck working a menial job, in a town you hate, with people you can't relate to.

lyrics

All congealed and strewn together
Uncuffed bird cut off your feathers
And live like everyone else
Live like everyone else

Your jet black hair is just as tangled
And I'm stuck in an uncomfortable angle
Just like everyone else
Wish that I was someone else

Helvetica
Run me up the tree
Of humanity

Hear the howling every evening
Same damn dog and neighbors screaming
Just wish it could end
Just like everyone else

Dad says "Son go be a leader"
The path's been laid you're just a feeder
Just like everyone else
Wish that I was someone else

Helvetica
Run me up the tree
Of humanity
