Bringing a lot of diversity to the table with a wide ray of musical influence and experience ranging from melodic metal, hip hop and reggae to even film soundtracks and orchestral music akin to Hans Zimmer, F.O.O.L- short for Fuck Our Ordinary Lives, proves himself to unload an arsenal of hard hitting yet smooth bass and musical abilities among unsuspecting ears.
When it comes to image, F.O.O.L. is sporting his iconic mask. This is by no means a mere change of appearance- however, but the ability for Hermansen to change face into F.O.O.L. symbolizes a crossover from our ordinary world into a futuristic, cinematic soundscape where the bass rules, and the pressures of real life slip away. With his new alter-ego in charge, F.O.O.L. makes his audience have more than just a listening experience, but a journey with him into another universe.
The Thief
F.O.O.L Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could never make you so
You were a hard man
No harder in this world
You made me cold and you made me hard
And you made me the thief of your heart
Winter is cold oh!
And for the first time
I feel like you're mine
I share you with the one who will
Mend what falls apart
And turn a blind eye
To the thief of your heart
Oh you lost
Oh you lost all
You lost all
You lost all
I'll never wash these clothes
I want to keep the stain
Your blood to me is precious
Nor would I spill it in vain
Your spirit sings
Though your lips never part
Singing only to me
The thief of your heart
Oh you lost
Oh you lost
Oh you lost all
Lost all
Oh you lost
Oh you lost all
Lost all
The song "The Thief" by F.O.O.L is a deeply emotional song that explores various themes. In the first few lines, the singer seems to be addressing someone who has hurt them and made them miserable. They express their hurt and frustration at not being able to make that person happy despite their best efforts. The next few lines seem to describe the person who caused this pain as a "hard man," and someone who has made the singer cold and hard themselves. However, despite this emotional turmoil, the singer takes on the role of "the thief of your heart." It's possible that the singer is referring to themselves as the one who stole the heart of the person who hurt them, or even more likely, they are admitting that they have stolen someone's heart in the past and that they are carrying the guilt of that act.
In the next verse, the singer once again depicts their object of affection as cold and uncaring. They contrast this with the singer, who seems to be aware that this person has another lover. However, the singer is content to share the object of their affection with the other person, knowing that they alone have access to the person's true thoughts and feelings. In this way, the singer is once again acting as the "thief of your heart."
The final verses of the song are even more telling. The singer states that they will never wash the clothes they have stained with the other person's blood, indicating a violent confrontation between the two. The singer seems to view the act of taking the other person's blood as sacred, however, and declares that they would not spill it in vain. The last line of the song once again reiterates the central role of the singer as the "thief of your heart."

I hope you're happy now
I sincerely hope that you are satisfied with your actions
I could never make you so
I admit that I am not capable of providing you with happiness
You were a hard man
You were a difficult person to be around
No harder in this world
There is no one in this world who is as difficult as you
You made me cold and you made me hard
As a result of your actions or words, you have made me unfeeling and tough
And you made me the thief of your heart
You have caused me to become someone who takes your affection without permission
Winter is cold oh!
The winter season is known for being incredibly cold
But you're colder still
You are even colder than the frigid temperatures of winter
And for the first time
I am experiencing something new
I feel like you're mine
I feel as though you belong to me
I share you with the one who will
I am willing to share you with someone else who can fix what is broken
Mend what falls apart
They will repair the damage that has been done
And turn a blind eye
They will choose to ignore the fact that I have stolen your affections
To the thief of your heart
They will not pay attention to someone like me, who has taken your love without permission
Oh you lost
You have suffered defeat or loss
Oh you lost all
You have lost everything
You lost all
You have nothing left
I'll never wash these clothes
I will keep these clothes as they are
I want to keep the stain
I want to remember the evidence of what has happened
Your blood to me is precious
I view your blood as something valuable or important
Nor would I spill it in vain
I would never waste or squander your blood
Your spirit sings
Your soul or essence is making music
Though your lips never part
Even though you are not literally singing, I still hear it
Singing only to me
The song is specifically for me to hear
The thief of your heart
I am the one who has taken your affections without permission
Oh you lost
You have suffered defeat or loss
Oh you lost all
You have lost everything
Lost all
You have nothing left
