Guts
Aidan Alexander Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So kiss your gun and shoot me dead already, I'm so fucking bored
I know I'm messing with your head
I know you think about what I do when I'm in bed and I'm bored
I see you try and try and try
Thinking of me so late at night
I don't mean to be impolite
You miss me
While I'm indifferent
Oh, you don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
I know that apathy is dead
So kiss your gun and shoot me dead already, I'm so fucking bored
I know I'm messing with your head
I know you think about what I do when I'm in bed and I'm bored
This shit is nothing but a crime
Nothing's as good as in my mind
Oh, you miss me
While I'm indifferent
You miss me
While I'm indifferent
Oh, you don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
I know that apathy is dead
So kiss your gun and shoot me dead already, I'm so fucking bored
I know I'm messing with your head
I know you think about what I do when I'm in bed and I'm bored
You don't got the guts
You don't got the guts
The lyrics to Aidan Alexander's song "Guts" delve into the theme of apathy and boredom. The first few lines of the song express the sense of boredom and indifference that the singer feels. He is so uninterested in life that he doesn't even flinch at the idea of someone shooting him. The next few lyrics reveal that the singer is aware of the effect he has on someone he knows, and it seems like he uses this as a way to keep his life interesting. He knows that this person thinks of him late at night and wants to turn off the lights but doesn't have the guts to do so.
The chorus highlights the fact that the singer is indifferent to the situation even though the other person misses him. He tells the other person that they don't have the guts to act on their feelings, implying that they're weak and unable to do anything about it. The next set of lyrics further emphasize the singer's feelings of detachment and boredom with life. He believes that nothing in reality can compare to his imagination, which is more fulfilling and exciting.
Overall, "Guts" explores the darker sides of apathy and boredom, portraying a protagonist who feels numb to life and the people around him. The song suggests that the singer uses the inability of others to act on their impulses as a way to keep himself entertained.
