Here We Go
Brion Jon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've gotta hope that there's someone for you
As strange as you are
Who can cope with the things that you do
Without trying too hard

Because you can bend the truth until it's suiting you
These things that you're wrapping all around you
You never know what they will amount to
And your life is just going on without you
It's the end of the things you know, here we go

You've gotta know that there's more to this world
Than what you have seen
Because we all have a limited view
Of what we can be

As we move along with our blinders on
Each one of us feels a little stranded
And you can't explain or understand it
Each one of us on a different planet
And amidst all the to and fro
Someone can say hello, here we go

The feeling that someone really gets you
It's something that no one should object to
It could happen today
So I suggest you skip your habit of laying low
It's the end of the things you know, here we go





Because someone can say, "Hello
You old so and so, here we go"

Overall Meaning

The song "Here We Go" by Brion Jon captures the feeling of isolation and the quest for human connection. The lyrics describe the struggle of finding someone in this world who can accept and understand our quirks and faults. The song starts with a message of hope, that there is someone out there for each one of us, no matter how weird we might be. The person should be able to cope with our flaws without trying too hard. However, the next lines suggest that we could be deceiving ourselves by bending the truth to suit our needs, so we must be careful about the things we wrap around ourselves.


The song goes on to say that we all have a limited view of what we can be, and we move around with blinders on, feeling a little stranded. We cannot explain or understand the feeling of isolation, and we all seem to be on different planets. However, even amidst all the chaos, there is a possibility of finding someone who can relate to us and say hello, making us feel like we belong. The lyrics suggest that we should skip our habit of laying low, and we must be open to new people and new experiences to break away from the things we know.


In summary, "Here We Go" encourages us to embrace life fully and to be open to human connections. It's a reminder that we are not alone, and there is hope for all of us to find someone who genuinely gets us.

@dannyfigueredo2752

crazy how he has at least a handful of songs this good

@bonnieduff3543

I have never commented on a youtube video before, but my ex-boyfriend put this on a mixtape for me for a birthday once and it always made my cry because he told me I was this person. We mutually broke up a couple months ago and this is the first time I've listened to it since and when I hear it I will always be 18, and falling in love in England, on a sunny day in May. I hope he is living wonderful and that he will find someone for him, strange as he is.

@maxtobinfilms
