Panic Room
Au/Ra & CamelPhat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hell raising, hair raising
I'm ready for the worst
So frightening, face whitening
Fear that you can't reverse

My phone has no signal
It's making my skin crawl
The silence is so loud

The lights spark and flicker
With monsters much bigger
Than I can control now

Welcome to the panic room
Where all your darkest fears are gonna come for you, come for you
Welcome to the panic room
You'll know I wasn't joking when you see them too, see them too
Welcome to the panic room

Welcome to the panic room

Still waiting, hands shaking
Maybe the coast will clear
But these voices, these strange noises
They followed me in here

My phone has no signal
It's making my skin crawl
The silence is so loud
The lights spark and flicker
With monsters much bigger
Than I can control now

Welcome to the panic room
Where all your darkest fears are gonna come for you, come for you
Welcome to the panic room
You'll know I wasn't joking when you see them too, see them too

Welcome to the panic room

Welcome to the panic room

There's no crying wolves now
'Cause the truth has settled in
Hiding under goose down
For your nightmare to begin





Welcome to the panic room

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Au/Ra & CamelPhat's "Panic Room" convey a sense of fear and vulnerability. The singer is in a precarious situation, unsure of what will happen next. The opening lines suggest the singer is bracing themselves for the worst and the fear is so intense that it's visibly affecting them. The description of the noises and events in the room demonstrate the unknown and unpredictable nature of the situation. The repetition of 'welcome to the panic room' serves to emphasize the feeling of entrapment, as though the singer is trapped in their own head with no escape.


The reference to the phone signal not working serves to indicate a sense of isolation and desperation, further strengthening the feeling of anxiety. The singer is left alone with their fears and no way of reaching out to others for help. The imagery of monsters and strange sounds suggests the singer is experiencing a heightened sense of paranoia - everything around them is perceived as a threat.


The overall effect is a sense of profound unease and recognition of the unseen dangers that lurk in the darkness, both physical and psychological. The message conveyed in the lyrics speaks to the universal human experience of confronting fears and anxieties that terrify us, either real or imagined.

At this point, there is no fake crying or pretending that everything is okay. The truth about the situation has set in, and I'm hiding under the covers, waiting for my nightmares to come to life.
