Meaning of "Soberland" by Hinds

The lyrics of "Soberland" seem to depict a sense of alienation and discomfort in a social setting where one feels disconnected from those around them. The narrator seems to be addressing someone who is putting on a facade to fit in, and while they are waiting for someone who appreciates them for who they truly are, they seem to be surrounded by people with whom they have to pretend to get along. The constant reference to "strangers that surround you" suggests a feeling of being out of place or surrounded by insincerity. The repetition of the question "How am I supposed to..." reflects the internal struggle of trying to navigate this social dynamic and maintain authenticity. The mention of "soberland" at the end could symbolize a state of clarity or sobriety in contrast to the superficiality and artificiality of the social interactions described throughout the song.
