Someone
Del-Phi's Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That warned me and you told me so
I never took your advice
I never though that she could hurt me so
But here I am, I'm down on my knees
Somebody help me please
Tell me what it's like
When they don't love you
To need someone
When they don't need you
To love someone
When you're down and out
Tell me what it's like
When you can't find out
Somebody
I never had a chance
She left, she didn't even say goodbye
I never thought she was that kind
But I was wrong, too late I realize
That it's over and I know that we're through
Can't somebody tell me what to do?
Tell me what it's like
To love someone
When they don't love you
To need someone
When they don't need you
To love someone
When you're down and out
Tell me what it's like
When you can't find out
Somebody
It's over and I know that we're through
Can't somebody tell me what to do?
Tell me what it's like
To love someone
When they don't love you
To need someone
When they don't need you
To love someone
When you're down and out
Tell me what it's like
When you can't find out
Tell me what it's like
To love someone
When they don't love you
To need someone
When they don't need you
The lyrics of Del-Phi's song "Someone" speak about the pain and confusion of loving someone who doesn't reciprocate those feelings. The artist acknowledges that others had warned them about this person, but they didn't listen and instead fell for them deeply. Now, they're left heartbroken and desperate for someone to guide them out of their misery. The chorus of the song is an anguished plea for someone, anyone, to explain what it's like to love someone who doesn't love you back, to need someone who doesn't need you, and to love someone when you're down and out and can't find a way back up.
Through these lyrics, the artist captures the feelings of vulnerability, self-doubt, and despair that often come with unrequited love. The listener can imagine the singer on their knees, struggling to make sense of their emotions and searching for any kind of support or guidance. The poignancy of the song lies in the fact that it is impossible to truly describe what it feels like to love someone who doesn't love you back - it's a unique, individual experience that can't be fully understood by anyone else.
Overall, "Someone" is a powerful and emotionally charged song that explores the universal experience of unrequited love. Its lyrics are relatable and resonate with anyone who has ever been in a similar situation, and the artist's raw honesty and vulnerability make it impossible not to feel moved by the song.
