Someone Like Me
Aviators Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm feeling like a photograph
Life never changes but it goes by fast
Far too fast for me to catch
They tell me I'm too insecure, that
I should believe in myself more
If only it was as easy as that

Sometimes I just feel like
A stranger in my life
Sometimes I don't feel right at all
I may be lonely
But maybe I'm supposed to be 'cuz
No one's there to hear me when I call

Things get complicated
So I've watched and waited
For the moment I'll find
Someone like me
I feel so underrated
Some just leave me frustrated
Feels like I'll never find
Someone like me

My wings feel broken but they work fine
I guess confidence never was mine
A harsh word can leave me stunned
Some say I'm unique and others strange
Some say I'm just living up to my name
But I can't be the only one

Sometimes I just feel like
A stranger in my life
Sometimes I don't feel right at all
I may be lonely
But maybe I'm supposed to be cuz'
No one's there to hear me when I call

Things get complicated
So I've watched and waited
For the moment I'll find
Someone like me
I feel so underrated
Some just leave me frustrated
Feels like I'll never find
Someone like me

Just when I thought I was all alone
You came and showed me I'm not on my own
I'm not that different, you've made me see
I've finally found someone like me

Things get complicated
So I watched and waited
For the moment I'll find
Someone like me
I feel so underrated
Some just leave me frustrated
Maybe I've finally found
Someone like me

Things get complicated
So I've watched and waited
For the moment I'll find
Someone like me
I feel so underrated
Some just leave me frustrated
Feels like I'll never find
Someone like me





Someone like me

Overall Meaning

The song "Someone Like Me" by Aviators is an introspective piece that explores the feeling of loneliness and isolation, despite the constant rush and chaos of life. The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling with self-confidence and often feels like a stranger in their own life, even as they desperately search for someone who can understand and relate to them.


The opening lines of the song, "I'm feeling like a photograph/Life never changes but it goes by fast," set the theme and tone of the song. The lyrics imply that life is fleeting and mundane, and the singer feels like they are stuck in this monotonous cycle, unable to break free or find a sense of purpose. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer is searching for someone who is like them, someone who can understand and connect with them in a meaningful way.


The second verse suggests that the singer's struggle with self-confidence is not just an internal battle, but one that is exacerbated by the opinions and judgments of others. The lyrics imply that the singer is often criticized for being too insecure and that they are constantly trying to believe in themselves more. However, this is easier said than done, and the singer feels like they are trapped in a cycle of self-doubt and loneliness.


The final chorus of the song provides a glimmer of hope as the singer suggests that they have finally found "someone like me." This line implies that the singer has found someone who understands them and can relate to their struggles, providing a sense of validation and belonging that was previously missing.


Overall, "Someone Like Me" is a powerful song that explores the universal human experience of loneliness and isolation. The lyrics are relatable and heartfelt, and the melody and instrumentation add to the emotional impact of the song.

Gotta admit, this one hits pretty close to home.

@TheCraftingBrony

@TheCraftingBrony

TheCraftingBrony well for me too :)

@Seiena

@pseudesthesie

It's so close to home it's like I'm playing it on YouTube inside my house. Wait....

@Kyuubi879

This song. Where do i begin?

When I was 12, I had some some feelings that made this song strike home. I remember sitting on my laptop listening to this, and having my head down thinking about how or why i wasn't able to come out to people as much as others had. these were just times i didn't know myself.

I'm 17 now, and im way past that phase, but im still very thankful for how powerful this song was to me back then. it definitely meant a lot. but every blue moon i come to listen to this, i get some flashbacks from back then. i don't take my emotions for granted when it comes from music. Thanks.

I'm not a Brony but aviators is awesome. So is mandopony and the living tombstone. Your type of music that you sing or listen to doesn't define exactly who you are. Just enjoy what you do.

@papasquat1235

no you bro

@mattlatorre9084

+Papasquat123 (Logan Willard) That's how good some of this brony music can be. You don't have to be a brony to relate to it. I feel like this in particular is one of those songs that, if you didn't know the true inspiration behind the lyrics, you would never suspect is about My Little Pony because it's written in a way that allows anyone to appreciate it.
