Intuition
Aela Kae Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was never never taught
I was never taught how to feel

I was never never taught
I was never taught how to feel

Someone told me that
Someone told me that I only steal

Someone told me that
Someone told me that I only steal

Yeah

You know the dark surrounding it
It won't get through to you

You know the dark surrounding it
It won't get through to you

There's always these feelings that
always these feelings that I hate
Always these feelings that I hate
But I really kinda want them to
I really kinda want them to stay
But I really kinda want them to
I really kinda want them to stay

You know the dark surrounding it
It won't get through to you





You know the dark surrounding it
It won't get through to you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Aela Kae’s song “Intuition” are a reflection of the internal struggle of a person who has never been taught how to feel, and therefore feels detached from their emotions. The repetition of “I was never taught how to feel” emphasizes the lack of emotional guidance this person has received, leaving them feeling lost and confused. The lyric “someone told me that I only steal” suggests that this person may have been judged or criticized for their actions without considering the underlying reasons for their behavior.


Despite the desire to keep negative emotions at bay, the person in the song acknowledges that they still want to feel them. The line “always these feelings that I hate, but I really kinda want them to stay” implies that they recognize the value in experiencing and processing their emotions, even if it’s uncomfortable. The repetition of “you know the dark surrounding it, it won’t get through to you” could be interpreted as the person reassuring themselves that they are strong enough to withstand the difficult emotions that come with self-discovery and growth.


Overall, the song conveys a message about the importance of embracing emotions and learning how to navigate them, even if it's not something that was taught to us in our upbringing.
