Alienate Me
Helalyn Flowers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walkin' on your streetsIn front of me you' re silent Like an overdose You make me feel outside andUrban atmosphereA traffic of emotionsAs in a cage I feel my brain and actionsMaybe what I live Is only my alienation But I can feel the reality If I look in your eyes...You're killin' meI'm killin' youPlease don't try to understandWhat my mind is searching for! You're watchin' meI'm stabbin' youDon't you think it is enoughTo walk down your own street alone? People around meKeeping in handsTryin' to cover my faceMass celebrations A new daytale's done Please alienate me... let it be!
The song "Alienate Me" by Helalyn Flowers is a reflection on the experience of feeling disconnected and alienated from the world around you. The lyrics portray the main character walking through the streets, feeling isolated despite being surrounded by people. The use of the word "overdose" suggests that the character feels overwhelmed by their surroundings and unable to connect with them. The repetition of the phrase "you're killing me, I'm killing you" further emphasizes the sense of disconnection and friction between the character and the world.
The song suggests that the character's feelings of alienation are caused by a lack of understanding from the people around them. The line "please don't try to understand what my mind is searching for" suggests that the character feels misunderstood and unable to communicate their inner thoughts and emotions. The phrase "mass celebrations, a new daytale's done" further emphasizes the sense of disconnection, as the character feels disconnected from the celebratory atmosphere around them.
Despite the sense of isolation and disconnection portrayed in the lyrics, the final line of the song suggests that the character has come to accept their place as an outsider: "please alienate me... let it be." Overall, the song presents an introspective look at the experience of feeling disconnected and isolated, and the longing for acceptance and understanding.
