DEEP INSIDE
Birth Control Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's Loneliness In Every Room, In Every House
There's Loneliness Also In The Biggest Town
There's Loneliness Everywhere You Look Around
The Heart And Head Of All The People
Working For Themselves
But Deep Inside They Know They Need This
Love To Feel Alright
You See Many Lights Through The Windows Shining Out
No One?s Looking Out To Help Someone who's Feelin? Down
You Hear Strange Voices Your Feet Step On The Ground
The Heart And Head Of All The People
Working For Themselves
But Deep Inside They Know They Need This
Love To Feel Alright
Deep Inside, Deep Inside
The Heart And Head Of All The People
Working For Themselves
But Deep Inside They Know They Need This




Love To Feel Alright
Deep Inside, Deep Inside, Deep Inside

Overall Meaning

Birth Control's song Deep Inside captures the universal feeling of loneliness and isolation that permeates every aspect of modern living. The opening lines of the song, "There's loneliness in every room, in every house/There's loneliness also in the biggest town/There's loneliness everywhere you look around," paint a bleak picture of the world we inhabit. The lyrics convey a sense of profound melancholy and disconnection, highlighting the fact that even in the midst of bustling cities and crowded streets, people can still feel utterly alone.


The song speaks to the heart and head of all people who work for themselves, a sentiment that resonates with many who feel trapped in the daily grind of modern life. The lyrics suggest that while people may strive for material success and accolades, deep down, they know that what they really need to feel alright is love. The line "But deep inside they know they need this love to feel alright" speaks to the fundamental truth that human beings are social animals who crave love and connection.


The imagery in the song is particularly powerful, with references to the lights shining through windows and strange voices on the ground. These descriptions suggest that even in the midst of a busy city, it's possible to feel disconnected from others and alienated from the world around us. The repeated refrain of "deep inside, deep inside" reinforces the idea that although people may look successful and happy on the surface, there is often pain and loneliness lurking beneath the facade.
