Why Did You?
Blutengel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why did you nuts? Talk to me.
Why did you always hide your fear from me?
Why did you let me walk so far away from you?
Why did you try to find a faction with someone new?

I wanted to hold you, I wanted to be the one for you.
But I was too weak, too tired to fight without a smile from you.
So you went away, you left with all the questions in my head
I was waiting so long, I was drinking too much
And I slowly turned away from you.

Now I know, I never felt this way before,
This pain is tearing me apart.




I donВ't want to gave up, I donВ't want to let you go,
Please stay with me, let us touch eternity

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Blutengel's song Why Did You? speak to the pain and confusion of a failed relationship. The singer is addressing their former partner with a series of questions, asking why they acted the way they did. The first line, "Why did you nuts? Talk to me," may seem nonsensical at first, but it can be read as a plea to the other person to share their innermost thoughts and feelings. The next line, "Why did you always hide your fear from me?" suggests that the other person was not completely honest about their emotions, which may have contributed to the relationship's downfall. The singer then asks why their partner allowed them to drift away, and why they sought out a connection with someone new.


The second stanza expresses the singer's own feelings of regret and longing. They admit that they wanted to be with their partner, but were too weak to fight for the relationship. As a result, their partner left with unanswered questions, leaving the singer alone and drinking too much. The final lines reveal that the singer is now aware of the depth of their feelings for their former partner, and they beg them to stay and "touch eternity."


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of sadness and missed opportunity. It's clear that the singer still cares for their former partner deeply, but it may be too late to salvage the relationship.
