Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "F for You" by Disclosure explore the idea of being infected with lies and dishonesty, as manifested in the "restless whispers and cheats" that the singer has been exposed to. The repetition of the lines emphasizes the feeling of being trapped by the lies, unable to escape from their influence on the singer's life. The chorus reveals that the singer played the fool for the person who propagated these lies. It appears that the singer regrets trusting someone they thought they knew, and is now dealing with the consequences of that misplaced trust.


The song showcases the emotional turmoil that can be caused by not only being lied to but also by being emotionally manipulated. The "restless whispers and cheats" also symbolize the negative thoughts that can occur when consumed by betrayal, further emphasizing the impact of the situation on the singer. Moreover, the line "Because I played the fool for you" highlights the importance of acknowledging one's own mistakes rather than blaming someone else for one's situation.


Overall, the song serves as a reminder that dishonesty and manipulation can have a profound impact on one's life, and that it is crucial to stay true to oneself and to avoid playing the fool for those who do not have our best interest at heart.
