Bet
Foje Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Per daug jau liudnas
Kad as galeciau
Sypsotis graziai
Tik sis pasaulis
Per daug jau piktas
Kad as galeciau
Prajuokint tave
Industrinio liudesio miestus
Bet kartais kai ivykiu eigai pakeisti
Tereikia tik meiles as trokstu
Istrukti i laisve
Raudonos spalvos
Atskiedzia juoda
Pasaulio tvanas
Ir amzinoji sviesa
Ar tu sapnuoji
Tai kartais nakti
Ar tu jauti tai
Giliai viduje
Tu kartais klausi
Kodel as keistas
Kodel as noriu
Kazko daugiau
Ir mano zodziai
Nereiskia nieko
Jei tavo akys
Uzmerktos man
The lyrics to Foje's song "Bet" talk about the struggles of living in a world that is too sad and too angry, and how it's difficult to find happiness and laughter in it. The song's verses speak of a life that is surrounded by cityscapes filled with industrial sadness, but the chorus offers a glimmer of hope in the form of love. The singer declares that they only want love to set them free, as the world is full of pain that is only interrupted by the occasional burst of happiness.
The lines "Raudonos spalvos atskiedzia juoda" signify the contrasting nature of the world, where red colors (representing the joyous moments) are separated by black (representing sadness). The singer encourages the listener to dream and connect with their emotions, questioning whether they also dream and whether they feel deeply. They explain that they themselves are different, wanting something more than the superficiality of the world. The singer acknowledges that their words don't mean anything if the listener keeps their eyes closed, metaphorically warning them against closing themselves off from the world.
Overall, the song "Bet" speaks to the universal struggles of finding happiness and meaning in a world that can be suffocatingly sad and angry. Although the lyrics may be interpreted in different ways, the song conveys a message of finding hope and love as a way of overcoming these struggles.

Nereiskia nieko
Don't mean anything
Jei tavo akys
If your eyes
Uzmerktos man
Are closed to me
