Detached
Halfpace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Caught right in-between their storms.
Who even cares who your god is?
Just know on which side your fucking heart is.
We should walk this earth hand in hand.

Kids starring down into the barrel of guns.
In the name of god we keep on watching buildings crumble.
Your beliefs and your history don't justify the actions you make.
And categorizing people, just seems sick to me.

There's no such thing as a superior race. We're the same.
Don't let the colour of ones skin determine who to love or not.

Reaching out for help and you shut the door in their faces.
Locked it forever and threw the key away.
Your beliefs and your history don't justify the actions you make.

There's no such thing as a superior race.
We're the same.
Don't let the colour of ones skin determine who to love or not.

Who even cares who your god is?
Just know on which side your fucking heart is.




Who even cares who your god is?
Just now which side your heart is on

Overall Meaning

Halfpace's song "Detached" is a call to reflect on our actions and beliefs as individuals and as a society. The lyrics start with the line "Caught right in-between their storms," which could be interpreted as being stuck between opposing views or ideologies. The next line, "Who even cares who your god is?" questions the importance of religion in matters of ethics and morality. The following line, "Just know on which side your fucking heart is," suggests that we should focus on what is right and wrong based on our own moral compass rather than blindly following one ideology or religion.


The second verse of the song addresses the destructive tendencies that arise when we let our beliefs and history justify our actions. The lines "In the name of god we keep on watching buildings crumble," highlight the violence and destruction that can come from religious conflicts. The line "And categorizing people, just seems sick to me," critiques the practice of grouping people based on superficial differences like race or religion. The chorus of the song repeats the message that "There's no such thing as a superior race," and that we should not let the color of someone's skin determine who we love or respect.


The final verse of the song is a condemnation of those who turn away from those in need. The lines "Reaching out for help and you shut the door in their faces. / Locked it forever and threw the key away," suggest a callous disregard for the suffering of others. The repetition of the chorus drives home the message that our beliefs and ideology should not be used as an excuse for inaction or cruelty.

Lyrics (shared by band)

I made amends with my sins ages ago.
While you don’t even care to admit that you were wrong.
You’ve lost yourself, no control.
Because you made your choice long ago.
And I got sick of having to clean up your mess.

I now see you for what you are.
A violent disease.
Infecting the ones you love,
just to watch them bleed.
Just to watch them bleed.

I´d rather be alone than be surrounded by people like you.
I’ll rather be alone than be you.

I´d rather be alone than be surrounded by people like you.
I see you what you are, a violent disease.
Are you happy now?
I´d rather be alone than be surrounded by people like you.
When it’s all said and done, are you happy?

Whatever went so wrong
to leave you this broken?
I honestly think i’m better off without you.
I gave you all had for you to throw away.
And then you had the stomach to ask
what the fuck was wrong with me?
I think i’m better of without you.
Whatever went so wrong?

I´d rather be alone than be surrounded by people like you.

I´d rather be alone than be surrounded by people like you.
I see you what you are, a violent disease.
Are you happy now?
I´d rather be alone than be surrounded by people like you.
When it’s all said and done, are you happy?
Are you happy now?

I made amends with my sins ages ago.
While you don’t even care to admit that you were wrong.
