Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Someone has to die
And I feel you
Someone has to die
And I feel you
Someone has to die
I know, I know...
You know, you know...
There can't be two of us in me
And I feel you
Someone has to die
And I feel you
Someone has to die
I know, I know...
You know, you know...
I know, I know...
You know, you know...
Someone has to die...
Someone has to die...
The lyrics of Drain S.T.H.'s song "Someone" convey a contemplation of internal struggle and the need for change. The repetition of the line "Someone has to die" creates an ominous and unsettling mood. The phrase signifies the death of a part of oneself, the need to let go of old habits or patterns in order to move on and evolve. The singer recognizes that there cannot be two versions of themselves, and that they need to let go of their old self in order to move forward. The final line, "Someone has to die" is repeated like a mantra which emphasizes the weight of this decision and the finality of change.
The lyrics can be interpreted in many ways, but the overall theme seems to be one of self-reflection and personal growth. The idea is that in order to move forward, it's necessary to let go of the past and embrace change, even if it may be difficult or painful. It is interesting to note that the lyrics do not specify exactly what aspect of the self needs to be "killed off," leaving it open to interpretation based on the listener's own experiences.
