Blind
Alpines Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's something that is taking hold
In the brightness, can't focus,
I'm losing sign of all control
You got me breaking all the rules,
one of us is gonna lose
And everytime you come closer,
You're the one I choose
You got me so blind,
I'm losing all my senses
Got me this time,
I've never been this reckless
I've been so blind, so blind
I've been so blind, so blind
In this moment, eyes open,
Everything I know has changed
I'm spinning, lost in you,
There's something that I can't explain
You got me breaking all the rules,
one of us is gonna lose
And everytime you come closer,
You're the one I choose
You got me so blind,
I'm losing all my senses
Got me this time,
I've never been this reckless
I've been so blind, so blind
I've been so blind, so blind
Gotta get you out of my mind,
I throw it all away
I've never been so blind,
Under your spell baby
Gotta get you out of my mind,
I throw it all away
I've never been so blind,
Under your spell baby
You got me so blind,
I'm losing all my senses
Got me this time,
I've never been this reckless
I've been so blind, so blind
I've been so blind, so blind
I've been so blind (gotta get you out of my mind), so blind, oh
I've been so blind
Gotta get you out of my mind, I've never been so blind
The lyrics to Alpines' song Blind are an expression of being overwhelmed by a powerful attraction or infatuation with someone that is causing the singer to lose their sense of self-control. The lyrics convey a sense of being helpless to resist the powerful force that is drawing the singer towards the other person. The song speaks to the feeling of being blinded by love, willingly losing control to the other person, and admitting the inability to break free from their spell.
The song begins with describing the feeling of being pulled in two different directions, with the singer’s emotions fluctuating between a high and low. They feel something taking hold of them, but they can't focus on it because it's too bright, and they're losing their sense of control. They admit that one of them is going to lose, but every time they're close to the person, they choose to continue down this path, even though they're losing themselves.
The second verse describes that the singer has surrendered to the attraction and is now lost in the other person. Everything they know has changed, and they are spinning, unable to explain what is happening to them. As the chorus repeats, "You got me so blind, I'm losing all my senses, Got me this time, I've never been this reckless," the singer admits that they are under the other person's spell and attempts to break free from it. However, they admit they've never felt so blinded as they try to come to terms with their emotions.
Overall, Blind is an intriguing and emotive song that captures the surrender to infatuation and the overwhelming feelings of being blinded by love.
