Embassy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me off, i tried, i tried, but we want one of what we tried to understand, the children disappeared, charming clusters, assembly, decieving the other, the closed arms and minds, mocking, what they are unaware of.




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Embassy's song Said suggest a feeling of frustration and disappointment. The line "let me off, I tried, I tried" is a cry for release, indicating that the singer has put in a lot of effort but is no longer able to continue. The phrase "we want one of what we tried to understand" implies that there was something they were trying to comprehend but were unable to grasp. The subsequent line "the children disappeared" suggests a sense of loss or abandonment, and the alliteration of "charming clusters" creates a feeling of fleeting beauty that has been lost. The phrase "deceiving the other" indicates that there may have been a deception or betrayal involved, and the mention of "closed arms and minds" suggests an unwillingness to be open to new ideas or experiences. Finally, the line "mocking, what they are unaware of" suggests a lack of empathy or understanding towards others who may have different perspectives or struggles.


The song can be interpreted as a commentary on societal issues such as ignorance, conformity, and the marginalization of certain groups. The singer is clearly frustrated with the lack of understanding and empathy displayed by those around them, and perhaps feels isolated as a result. The use of poetic imagery adds depth and complexity to the lyrics, allowing the listener to engage with both the emotional and intellectual aspects of the song.
