Gorilla Zoe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now you're all by your self
Acting like you hate me
I left because you made me
You played me to the left
Now their ain't nobody left
To hear you're complaining I'm gone and all you hear is you're own damn
E-echo!
And I'm gone
And you're all alone
Can't you hear the hear the
Echo!
E-echo!
No one to hear you
There's nobody near you it started off great
But who was to know
That love that is lost
Cannot be let go
You said it's my fault
Ok then I'll go
It's better to know
Now there's nobody to argue with
Cause I'm not home
Don't care who you're with
Don't call my phone
Or did you forget
You know you're wrong
I'm gone!
And you're all alone hearing your own damn
Echo!
E-echo!
And I'm gone
And you're all alone
Can't you hear the hear the
Echo!
E-echo!
No one to hear you
There's no one to trust
I trust no one no more
Just went with the flow
Found myself on the floor
When you went away
All my pain went astray
Like it's a new day
Now I have no one to argue with
Cause I'm not home
Don't care who you're with
Don't call my phone
Or did you forget
You know you're wrong
I'm gone
And your all alone
Hearing your own damn
Echo
Your own damn
E-echo
No one is near you
No one can hear you
With your own damn
Echo!
E-echo!
No one to hear you
There's nobody near you
All night long
I thought to my self
Why would I stay with you
Realized that you were the one WHO HAD issues
So why would I miss you
No one to argue with
Cause I'm not home
Don't care who you're with
Don't call my phone
Or did you forget
You know you're wrong
I'm gone!
And you're all alone
Hearing your own damn echo!
It's just you and your
E-echo!
Its just your and your
I hope that y'all get along
It's just you and your
Echo!
It's just you and your
E-echo!
There's no one to hear you
There's nobody near you
It's just your own damn
Echo!
Your own damn
E-echo!
Echo!
E-e-echo!
Echo
E-echo
E-e-echo
No one to argue with
Cause I'm not home
Don't care who you're with
Don't call my phone
Or did you forget
You know you're wrong
I'm gone!
The song "Echo" by Gorilla Zoe is a breakup song that touches upon the emotions one goes through after a break up. The opening line "You did this to yourself, now you're all by yourself" sets up the premise that the other person in the relationship is at fault and Gorilla Zoe had no choice but to leave. The chorus that repeats throughout the song, "Echo! E-echo! And I'm gone, and you're all alone" emphasizes that Gorilla Zoe has ended the relationship and it's up to the other person to deal with and process their pain on their own.
The lyrics also touch upon the thought process of the person who has left the relationship. Gorilla Zoe has come to the realization that staying in the relationship was not worth it, "Why would I stay with you, realized that you were the one who had issues, so why would I miss you." The chorus repeats itself throughout the song, symbolizing the echoes of pain and loneliness that the person now faces on their own.

Only hearing the sound of your own voice echoing back
There's no one to trust
There is no one you can trust now
I trust no one no more
I no longer trust anyone
Just went with the flow
We went along with things without thinking about the consequences
Found myself on the floor
We ended up failing and feeling defeated
When you went away
When you left
All my pain went astray
My pain disappeared
Like it's a new day
It feels like a new beginning
It's just you and your
It is only you and your
I hope that y'all get along
I hope you can manage to get along with your own thoughts
It's just your own damn
It is solely your own
There's no one to hear you
No one can hear you anymore
E-echo!
The sound of your own voice echoing back
E-e-echo!
The sound of your own voice echoing back
