Bloodlines
Dúné Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

1. Vers
My best friend is laying in there
He's messed up and I don't care
When love is put aside he ain't asking for more
He's a total waste, but he's still going strong

Chorus:
"I can't help it
Couldn't do it
I'm Jaywalking
Against my will
In my most desperate hour I'm covered in pills. "

2. Vers
When she comes back home it will catch her ear
Your fiddling will be spoiled in a future near
My bloodlines are acting a bit strange
They are spoken for, but not out of range

Chorus:
"I can't help it
Couldn't do it
I'm Jaywalking
Against my will
In my most desperate hour I'm covered in pills. "

C:
I can't help my: beat!
I can't stop my: beat!
I can't hold my: beat!
It's my damn heart: beat!





I told you not to play with our gun's girl

Overall Meaning

The first verse of Dúné's song Bloodlines appears to be about the singer's best friend who is going through a tough time. The singer seems to have grown tired of dealing with their friend's issues, as they refer to him as a "total waste." The line "when love is put aside he ain't asking for more" suggests that their friendship may be strained due to their friend's difficulties. The chorus then emphasizes the singer's feelings of helplessness, as they feel like they are "jaywalking" and unable to control their own actions or thoughts. The last line of the chorus, "in my most desperate hour I'm covered in pills," suggests that the singer may be struggling with their own issues as well.


The second verse takes on a different tone, with the singer accusing someone, likely their friend's significant other, of "fiddling" and implying that they will be caught in the near future. The line "my bloodlines are acting a bit strange" is a bit more cryptic, possibly referring to the singer's own family or ancestry, and the fact that they feel like they are caught in the middle of something. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the singer's feelings of helplessness and lack of control. The final lines of the song, "I told you not to play with our gun's girl," suggest some sort of warning or threat, but it's unclear who the singer is addressing.

dúné er det bedste band vi har haft i danmark i meget lang tid. deres musik er sindsyg god. mere vanvittigt er det at tænke på at de ikke er mere end 19-21 år. dúné i love you and everyone love you!!!
