Dom andras liv
Docenterna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Känner hur det vänder dagen börjar nu
Inget sex inget high-tech i hans liv
Kanske slutar det långt bort i periferin
Solen som en apelsin
Rund och fin
Redo att skalas av jonas ohlin
Så långt ifrån
De andras liv
Barbro svensson hon har ännu energi
Men just idag går handarbetet överstyr
Så hon lägger sig i soffan lite yr
Hon bara ligger där med blicken upp i skyn
Små små lätta moln
Attackerar ovanifrån
Så långt ifrån
De andras liv
Så långt ifrån
Lisa marklund drömde om en bättre värld
Men det var länge sedan hon trodde på sådant där
Så idag har någonting brustit och tagit slut
Och i hennes öron hörs ett obehagligt brus
Små små lätta moln
Lämnar plats för de stora grå
Så långt ifrån
De andras liv
De andras liv
The lyrics of the song "Dom andras liv" by Docenterna depict three individuals who feel detached and distant from the lives of others. The first verse introduces a person who starts their day with a late breakfast, sensing a shift in their day starting. Their life lacks the excitement of sex and high-tech gadgets, and the lyrics suggest that it might lead to an ending far away on the outskirts. The metaphor of the sun as an orange ready to be peeled by Jonas Ohlin adds a sense of anticipation and uncertainty.
The second verse introduces Barbro Svensson, who still has energy but today finds herself overwhelmed by handiwork, causing her to lie down on the couch feeling dizzy. She gazes up at the sky as small, light clouds attack from above. This imagery symbolizes the pressures and worries that weigh her down, as well as her detachment from the lives of others.
The final verse focuses on Lisa Marklund, who once dreamt of a better world but has stopped believing in such things. Something has broken and ended for her, leaving an unpleasant noise in her ears. The small, light clouds make way for big, gray clouds, representing the loss of hope and the gloom that has settled in.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of isolation and disconnection from the lives of others. Each character is depicted as being far away from the lives of those around them, dealing with their own struggles and disillusionment.
