FAREWELL
A.R. Rahman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never really handled it well
You're drifting off and I can tell
So long I guess, farewell
The second I let go of the past
Don't let the door hit your ass
Why'd you have to do me like that
Head in the clouds, foot on the gas
And that's not even worst of all
I put a new hole in the same old wall
And I think I'd be first to fall
She likes cheap drugs and alcohol
And that's not even worst of all
I put a new hole in the same old wall
And I think I'd be first to fall
Things would've been different if we thought this through
I don't really miss her like she think I do
I'd be lying if I said I ever gave a fuck
Maybe 'cause you're wasted when you call me up
All this time wasted, think I've had enough
Had enough
Had enough
The second I let go of the past
Don't let the door hit your ass
Why'd you have to do me like that
Head in the clouds, foot on the gas
She likes cheap drugs and alcohol
And that's not even worst of all
I put a new hole in the same old wall
And I think I'd be first to fall
She likes cheap drugs and alcohol
And that's not even worst of all
I put a new hole in the same old wall
And I think I'd be first to fall
The lyrics of A.R. Rahman's Farewell reveal a sense of disappointment, frustration, and bitterness towards a certain person who seems to be drifting away. The singer seems to have been kidding himself, trying to hold on to a relationship or a situation that was not working out. The repetition of the phrase "She likes cheap drugs and alcohol" suggests that the person in question may have issues with addiction or substance abuse, which could be one of the reasons for the breakup. The singer is also blaming the other person for doing him wrong and being reckless with their lives, which ultimately led to the downfall of their relationship.
The lines "The second I let go of the past, Don't let the door hit your ass" indicate that the singer is finally ready to move on and let go of all the baggage from the past. However, the bitterness and resentment still linger, as evident from the lyrics "Why'd you have to do me like that, Head in the clouds, foot on the gas." The singer seems to be hurt and betrayed by the other person's actions and is struggling to come to terms with the reality of the situation. The lyrics suggest that the singer may have been in denial for some time, but now it's time to face the truth and say farewell to the past.
