Solo
ALSOU / АЛСУ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Staring at your picture from midnight till noon
Counting the hours, counting the days
You know that i miss you in a million ways
[Chorus]
Now I wait in the cold
and this is getting old
Take me off this ride
When you see me in the hall
I look at the wall
By my actions you should know
I'm going solo
My friends tried to tell me, I didn't want to listen
'cause I'm the kind of person gotta find out on my own
I gave you my heart, you tore it apart
Now I'm coming back strong,I knew it was wrong
[Chorus]
The lyrics of ALSOU's "Solo" depict the inner turmoil of someone who's been let down by a loved one. The artist expresses her feelings of loneliness and heartache in a candid way. She states that she's sitting alone in her room, counting down the days and hours until she can see her loved one again. She looks at his picture, but it only reminds her of his absence. ALSOU feels a million ways about him but mostly misses him.
The chorus of the song is the singer pleading to leave behind the games and deceit and be free of the wrongs done to her. She is feeling trapped, and waiting in the cold is getting old. By her actions, she wants him to know that she's done with their relationship and is instead going solo.
As the song progresses, ALSOU talks about how her friends had tried to warn her about him, but she refused to listen, convinced that she needed to find out on her own. She gave her love to him, and he betrayed her, and now, she's trying to come back stronger.
Overall, the song is a poignant reminder of how the actions of the people we love can leave us wounded and alone but also how we can recover, pick ourselves up and move on.

I'm sitting alone here in my room
I am physically present in my own room without company
Staring at your picture from midnight till noon
I am constantly gazing at an image of you for extended periods of time
Counting the hours, counting the days
I am keeping track of the passage of time with the use of a numerical system
You know that i miss you in a million ways
I feel an absence of your presence and it affects me immensely
Now I wait in the cold
I find myself isolated and alone in a frigid atmosphere
And this is getting old
I find myself frustrated by the sameness of my current situation
No more stories, no more lies
I will not tolerate any false information or deceitful behavior
Take me off this ride
I desire an end to this stressful and tumultuous situation
When you see me in the hall
If and when I appear in the hallway
I look at the wall
I direct my gaze towards the adjacent surface rather than engage with you
By my actions you should know
Based on my body language and behavior, it should be clear to you
I'm going solo
I am choosing to be alone and independent in this circumstance
My friends tried to tell me, I didn't want to listen
My associates attempted to provide me with advice or input, but I declined to heed it
'cause I'm the kind of person gotta find out on my own
I possess a personality that requires me to experience and learn from situations firsthand
I gave you my heart, you tore it apart
I entrusted you with deep emotions and vulnerability, and you subsequently wounded me
Now I'm coming back strong,I knew it was wrong
I am returning from this painful experience stronger than before, having recognized the errors in my prior choices

Есть какая-то магия в этой песне. Я до сих пор считаю ее лучшим треком от России на Евровидении.
