Kryptonite
David Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewhere
In the sands of time
I watch the world float
To the dark side of the moon
I feel there's nothing I can do, yeah
The dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had
To be something to do with you
I really don't mind what
happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend in the end
If I go crazy then will you still call me superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there, holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite
You call me strong you call me weak
but still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times
I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you
Back on solid ground
If I go crazy then will you still call me superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there, holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite
If I go crazy then will you still call me superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there, holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite, yeah
If I go crazy then will you still call me superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there, holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite
The lyrics to David's song "Kryptonite" speak of a person who feels disconnected from the world and seeks solace in exploring it. They go on a metaphorical journey, leaving their physical body behind, symbolized by leaving it "lying somewhere in the sands of time." As they observe the world, they witness its darker side, represented by the reference to the dark side of the moon.
The lyrics suggest a sense of helplessness and resignation, as the person feels there is nothing they can do to change the world's trajectory. However, amidst this feeling, they acknowledge that their connection to someone else, perhaps a close friend or romantic partner, is what gives them comfort and strength. They express that as long as this person remains in their life, they don't mind what happens.
The chorus of the song revolves around the idea of being called Superman. Here, the person questions whether they will still be seen as strong and supported, even if they go through difficult times and potentially lose their sanity. They long for the assurance that their friend will still be there, holding their hand and providing support. The use of the term "Kryptonite" references Superman's vulnerability and weakness, suggesting that the person seeks reassurance amidst their own vulnerabilities.
Overall, "Kryptonite" is a song that explores themes of isolation, the complexities of human relationships, and the need for support and understanding during challenging times.
