Blackhole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I'm used to it now.
Everybody is breathing down my neck
And I can't stand knowing you are there.
Get fucked.
I'm not the person you think.
Don't cry.
I am not the elephant man.
You wanted change,
This is what you've got,
So deal with it like the fucking God you seem to think you are.
Don't cry.
The lyrics to "Don't Cry" by Blackhole are a poignant reflection on the alienation and self-doubt that can accompany the pressures of modern life. The opening lines of the song suggest a sense of disappointment or regret about how things have turned out: "I've never been a fan of the way my nights turned out, But I'm used to it now." This sense of resignation is compounded by the feeling of being watched or judged by others, represented by the line "Everybody is breathing down my neck". The singer then directly addresses someone who seems to hold them in high esteem, telling them to "Get fucked" and insisting that they are not the person they are assumed to be.
The repeated refrain of "Don't cry" gives the song a kind of defiant, rallying quality, as if the singer is trying to shake off their doubts and insecurities and forge their own path forward regardless of what others may think. This is reinforced by the line "You wanted change, This is what you've got, So deal with it like the fucking God you seem to think you are," which suggests an attitude of uncompromising self-assurance, even in the face of uncertainty and adversity.

I've never been a fan of the way my nights turned out,
I am not happy with how things have played out in my life during the night.
But I'm used to it now.
I have become accustomed to it over time.
Everybody is breathing down my neck
Everyone is looking over my shoulder and judging me.
And I can't stand knowing you are there.
I can't bear the thought of you being around me.
Get fucked.
I don't care about your feelings or what you have to say.
I'm not the person you think.
You have a false perception of who I really am.
Don't cry.
Please do not shed tears or express emotions towards me.
I am not the elephant man.
I am not a deformed or disfigured individual like the famous Joseph Merrick.
You wanted change,
You desired something different or new.
This is what you've got,
This is what you have received or the situation you are currently in.
So deal with it like the fucking God you seem to think you are.
Handle this situation like the powerful and mighty being you believe yourself to be.
Don't cry.
Do not let yourself be overcome by emotions such as sadness or pity.
