To the Minority
Die Happy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Coming to you with pleassace in my arms
Bringing no pleasure into your house in a way
May I, may I not, and what you say
To the minority
All you can say is "you have to get out of here"
But you just don't know what it's doing to me
May I, may I not, and what you say
I scream
To the minority

The lyrics suggest that the person is trying to bring pleasure and goodness to the other person's life, but instead, they are being told to leave.
The line "may I, may I not, and what you say, I scream" could indicate the frustration and desperation the person is feeling about not being able to communicate effectively with the other person. It could suggest that they want to say something but are unsure whether they should or not, and are ultimately driven to scream in frustration.
The title of the song, "To the Minority," could also suggest that this song is about the experience of being part of a marginalized group.
