You Are Not Alone
Cue No Ego Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think you feel it too
It's bigger than me
It's bigger than you
I can't defy it
Electric through my bones
A pulsing beat wherever you go
Oh
Don't you know
That you can or you can't let me go
But it's a long way down
When you're falling on your own
Yours and mine
Hands entwined
In the dark, you don't know what you'll find
It's a long way down
But you are not alone
Anymore
So I keep falling
I think I lost the ground
I heard the silence
Swallow the sound
The world keeps calling
Think I forgot my name
I guess that I'll keep
Playing the game
Oh don't you know
That you can or you can't let me go
But it's a long way down
When you're falling on your own
Yours and mine
Hands entwined
In the dark, you don't know what you'll find
It's a long way down
But you are not alone
Anymore
Oh
It's too late
To be anybody else
Than who you are
Like a star
That keeps looking for its light
From somewhere else
It's too late
To be anybody else
Than who you are
You're a star
But you keep looking for yourself
In someone else
Oh
Don't you know
That you can or you can't let me go
Oh
But it's a long way down
When you're falling on your own
Yours and mine
Hands entwined
In the dark, you don't know what you'll find
But it's a long way down
When you're falling on your own
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
Oh
Oh
Don't you know
That you can or you can't let me go
It's a long way down
But you were never alone
The lyrics of "You Are Not Alone" by Cue No Ego convey a sense of shared vulnerability and interconnectedness in the face of life's challenges. The opening lines, "I know I feel it, I think you feel it too, It's bigger than me, It's bigger than you," suggest a mutual understanding and recognition of a shared emotional experience. The singer acknowledges that these feelings transcend individualism.
The repeated refrain, "Don't you know that you can or you can't let me go, But it's a long way down when you're falling on your own," reflects the struggle of facing difficulties alone. It conveys a plea for support and companionship, highlighting the daunting nature of navigating life's challenges without someone to rely on. The use of falling as a metaphor emphasizes the potential consequences of isolation and the need for human connection.
The verse continues with the image of intertwined hands in darkness, symbolizing unity and support in times of uncertainty. The singer reminds the listener that even though it may feel like a long way down, they are not alone anymore. This suggests the possibility of finding solace and strength through connection with others.
The bridge of the song amplifies the theme of self-acceptance and embracing one's true identity. It encourages a shift from seeking validation from external sources to recognizing and embracing one's uniqueness. The comparison to a star searching for its own light underlines the futility of looking for oneself in someone else. It serves as a reminder that true fulfillment comes from within, rather than from external validation.
The final repetition of the refrain, "But it's a long way down when you're falling on your own, It's a long way down, but you were never alone," brings the message full circle. It reiterates the importance of solidarity and assures the listener that despite the challenges faced, they were never truly alone. The lyrics convey a message of hope and resilience, emphasizing the power of connection and understanding in overcoming adversity.

Oh
Expressing a realization or a moment of understanding
Don't you know
Are you not aware or conscious of this fact
That you can or you can't let me go
You have the choice to hold on to me or to release me
But it's a long way down

When you're falling on your own
When you experience solitude or separation
Yours and mine
Belonging to both of us
Hands entwined
Our hands are tightly intertwined, symbolizing unity
In the dark, you don't know what you'll find

But you are not alone
However, you are not alone in facing these uncertainties
Anymore
Previously, you may have felt alone, but that is no longer the case
So, I keep falling
Thus, I continue to surrender to this intense connection
I think I lost the ground
I feel disconnected from reality or stability
I heard the silence
I became aware of the absence of sound
Swallow the sound
The silence engulfed the sound, swallowing it completely
The world keeps calling
The world and its demands continue to beckon or call me
Think I forgot my name
I feel like I have lost my sense of identity
I guess that I'll keep playing the game
Perhaps, I will continue to engage in the game of life, despite feeling lost
It's too late
The opportunity for change or becoming someone else has passed
To be anybody else
To assume a different identity or personality
Than who you are
Rather, embracing and accepting your true self is the only option
Like a star
Similar to a celestial body shining in the sky
That keeps looking for its light
Continuously seeking its own source of illumination
From somewhere else
Searching for fulfillment or purpose outside of oneself
You're a star
You possess the brilliance and potential like a star
But you keep looking for yourself
Yet, you persistently search for true self-identity
In someone else
Seeking validation or identity through others
It's a long way down
There is a significant distance to fall or descend
But you were never alone
However, you were always accompanied or supported
