/DJS\ Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I'm walking down the street
As I'm stepping to the beat
I think about everything that you said to me.

And how could you be so cold.
And how could this love oh-oh.
And I blame you.
Don't know what else to do.

As I'm walking down the street.
As I'm stepping to the beat.
I think about everything that you said to me.

And how could you be so cold.
And how could this love oh-oh
And I blame you.
Don't know what else to do.

As I'm walking down the street.
As I'm stepping to the beat.
I think about everything that you said to me.

And how could you be so cold.
And how could this love oh-oh.
And I blame you.
Don't know what else to do.

No one else… (x10)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to /DJS's song "Beat" are an expression of frustration and disappointment in a past relationship. The singer is walking down the street, listening to the beat of their own footsteps, and reflecting on everything their ex-partner had said to them. The repetition of the phrase "As I'm walking down the street / As I'm stepping to the beat" emphasizes the singer's thought process, as if they are lost in their own world and trying to figure out how things went wrong.

The chorus, "And how could you be so cold / And how could this love oh-oh / And I blame you / Don't know what else to do" captures the singer's feelings of hurt and betrayal. Despite their attempts to make the relationship work, their partner was "cold" and ultimately the love they shared didn't last. The repetition of "And how could" gives a sense of disbelief and shock at the situation.

The final line, "No one else" repeated ten times, could be interpreted as a declaration that the singer is not interested in pursuing another relationship at this point. They are still processing their emotions and trying to make sense of what has happened.

Overall, "Beat" is a poignant reflection on the pain of a failed relationship and the struggles of moving on.
