Oneonta
Beeshop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I used to be where I was supposed to be
I never walked too far away from home
Well, I was wrong
(I was wrong, I was wrong, I was motherfunkin' wrong)
I used to be afraid of what was outside
And now I'm all about skies and galaxies
Well, I've got a song that you just can't sing along
Back to Oneonta
'Cause if we hang to the melodies
We may not get through in one piece
And it hurts and it hurts
If we get lost in poetry
We'll write out sins so beautifully
But they're not they're not!
And it turned out that I don't feel that good
Being on the place I wanna be
And every time I hear you say you love me
I ask 'why me? Why me?'
(I was wrong, I was wrong, I was motherfunkin' wrong)
That's why I've always been scared of those mirrors
I think that I would not survive the view
I spilled away just what I've tried to hide all over you
Now you don't know what to do
'Cause if we hang to the melodies
We may not get through in one piece
And it hurts and it hurts
If we get lost in poetry
We'll write out sins so beautifully, but they're not
They're not!
And I got lost
I've got so lost
Back to Oneonta
The lyrics to Beeshop's song "Oneonta" tell a story of a journey of self-discovery and reflection. The singer reminisces about their past and how they used to always stay within their comfort zone and not venture far from home. However, they now embrace the beauty and wonder of the world around them and have let go of their fear. The singer also struggles with feeling worthy of love and acceptance, expressing doubt in their worthiness of being loved. The refrain "Back to Oneonta" represents a return to a place of familiarity and comfort, but also perhaps implies a return to past ways of thinking and being.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of art and its power to express emotions, but also the danger of getting lost in the beauty of poetry and music and not facing the harsh realities of life. The singer expresses the fear of losing themselves in the beauty and forgetting the truth of their experiences. The line "If we get lost in poetry, we'll write out sins so beautifully, but they're not" emphasizes this idea.
Overall, the lyrics to "Oneonta" speak to the universal human experiences of self-doubt, fear, growth, and the power of art to express emotions but also to mask them.

I remember it used to be different
I used to be where I was supposed to be
I never walked too far away from home
Well, I was wrong
(I was wrong, I was wrong, I was motherfunkin' wrong)
I used to be afraid of what was outside
And now I'm all about skies and galaxies
I haven't got a thing to prove where I have been
Well, I've got a song that you just can't sing along
