Stockholm
Gretta Ziller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My desires taking over me
It only took a little prick
My bloods on fire to fulfil my need
I can't get it out
But Can't get enough
Its Not what I need
Stockholm let me go
Let me go let me go
Your a painted whore
Barron and empty with a hole that's made from your heart
With Crimson lips that don't keep score
You promised me maybes but You fucked it up from the start
I can't get it out
But Can't get enough
Its Not what I need
Stockholm let me go
Let me go let me go
Stockholm you'll never know
Never know, never know
I can't get it out
But Can't get enough
Its Not what I need
Stockholm you'll never know
Never know, never know
Stockholm if i let go
I let go i let go
Stockholm Let it go
Let it go let it go
In the first verse, the singer expresses a feeling of being overwhelmed by their own desires. They describe themselves as being "a little sick" and how a small stimulation has ignited a strong craving within them. They feel like their blood is on fire to satisfy this need, indicating a sense of urgency and obsession. Despite feeling consumed by these desires, they also acknowledge that it's not what they truly need or want.
Moving onto the chorus, the singer addresses Stockholm directly, requesting to be released from its grip. They use the metaphor of Stockholm being a "painted whore," suggesting that it is enticing and seductive but ultimately empty and barren. They highlight the hollowness of Stockholm, describing it as having a hole in its heart. The singer also mentions "Crimson lips that don't keep score," implying that promises made by Stockholm are insincere and unreliable. They feel betrayed by Stockholm, as it has ruined their chances from the beginning.
Throughout the song, the singer continually expresses their struggle with their desires and the conflicting feelings associated with them. They can't seem to rid themselves of these desires, even though they understand that indulging in them is not what they truly need. Stockholm represents a metaphorical trap or entanglement that holds the singer captive. They desperately want to break free and let go, as indicated in the repeated plea to be released in the chorus.
In the final lines of the song, the singer acknowledges that Stockholm will never truly understand them. They reiterate their desire to let go and move on from this toxic relationship with Stockholm. By using the repetition of "let it go" in the last line, the singer emphasizes their determination to break free from the control that Stockholm has over them.
