Room
Bilmuri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel so damn cold
The heater gave out a hundred miles ago
Slept in the backseat, with nowhere to go
I've been out here for days now
No closer to home
All my friends
Happy for me
I memorized the inside of my old room
All of the things that still remind me of you
And all the mistakes I ever made in my youth
Kept in a box I can't bring myself to lose
I heard you say: "You'll be okay
They're better off without me"
So I lay here in the dark
Ignoring all my friends
And since I'm doing better
Even though I'm a mess
Do I cross your mind
Like you would through mine?
I memorized the inside of my old room
And how good it felt to fall asleep next to you
Then I woke up in the backseat alone
Snow hits the window and whispers: "Go home"
The lyrics to Bilmuri's song "Room" tell the story of a person who feels lost and alone, driving aimlessly through the cold, with no real direction or destination in mind. They're surrounded by reminders of the past - memories of a former love, mistakes they've made, and a sense of disconnect from the people in their life who once promised to support them. As the song progresses, the singer becomes increasingly introspective, pondering whether they still hold significance in the life of the person they once loved, and whether that person ever thinks of them in the same way.
The opening line of the song, "Is anyone out there?", sets the stage for the feelings of isolation and alienation that the singer is experiencing. They feel "cold" and disconnected from the world around them, embodying a sense of aimlessness that many people can relate to when they feel lost or directionless. The line "I've been out here for days now, no closer to home" highlights the sense of stagnation that the singer is feeling, even as they continue to move forward - this can be read as a metaphor for the internal struggle of trying to find one's way in life.
The second half of the song deepens the emotional complexity of the lyrics, as the singer grapples with their memories and emotions around a former relationship. The line "I memorized the inside of my old room" is particularly poignant, as it suggests a deep longing for a time when things were simpler and easier, before the singer was overwhelmed by existential questions and uncertainty about the future. The lyrics are introspective and raw, offering a window into the emotional turmoil of the singer's inner world.
