SOS
Behind The Scenes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Watching the world we live in
We try to talk but noone hears
And every single day you must see
That we're so lonesome here

And so we start catching a glance
But every wew is made full of indifference
So wake up stop believing those lies
Some kind of strangers here

And in the rain I was starting to send my SOS
There's no release I'm lust calling for help so please
We're all by force here I'm calling out my SOS
The people passing by seem so grey
I can perceive each single face
And when they began to speak
I don't know them by name

Watching the world we live in
We try to talk but noone hears the silence
And every single day you must see
We are so lonesome here
And in the rain I was starting to send my SOS
And in the rain I was starting to send my SOS
We're all by force here we're loosing grounds
We're all by force here I'm calling out my SOS





There's no release and I'm calling for help, so please

Overall Meaning

The lyrics describe the struggle to communicate and connect with others, despite the constant attempt to do so. The band highlights the loneliness and isolation that can come from trying to reach out to others and the desperation that can result from feeling ignored.


Through the use of vivid imagery, such as the rain and grey faces of passersby, the band creates a sense of sadness and despair. The constant repetition of the phrase "calling out my SOS" adds to the urgency and hopelessness that the singer feels. The lines "We're all by force here, we're losing ground" sound like a cry for help, as the singer feels like they are being forced to live in a world that is hostile and unfriendly.


Overall, the song "SOS" is a poignant and emotive portrayal of the isolation and loneliness that can come from trying to connect with others in a world that often seems indifferent.

That man is above all
He gave the music another meaning
I always look at my playlist
Look at his songs
Get sad
But
Remember how amazing he lived
And how much people love him
He never died in out hearts
