Hevein Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You own a lot of things
You own so many things
But you really own nothing
you really own nothing, nothing
Nothing!
YOU!
Educate yourself
With reason
There are so many things
To fill your shell
disinformation breeds
you are the one I used to need
who informs you?
who feeds you news?
YOU!
The choice you make is the price I pay
Educate yourself
YOU!
Born awake. Die in your sleep
Sense it makes
YOU!
The choice you make is the price I pay
Educate yourself with reason
What you put in; in time, repays.
The choice you make is the price I pay
Educate yourself
YOU!
Born awake. Die in your sleep
Sense it makes
YOU!
The choice you make is the price I pay
Educate yourself
YOU!
Born awake. Die in your sleep
Sense it makes
The lyrics to Hevein's song "V" are thought-provoking and highly insightful. The singer starts by praising the subject of the song, telling them they own so many things, including the world. However, the singer then quickly takes a turn, revealing that despite owning all of these things, the subject really owns nothing. This could refer to the fact that the things they own are ultimately meaningless, and that true ownership lies elsewhere.
The chorus is where the true meaning of the song comes through. The singer tells the subject that the choices they make have consequences, and that those consequences are paid for by others, including the singer themselves. The message is clear - ignorance and lack of education has a cost, and that cost is borne by everyone. The singer urges the subject to educate themselves, to fill their shell with reason, and to be mindful of what they put into the world, as it will come back to them in time.
The last part of the song is perhaps the most impactful, as the singer tells the subject that they were born awake, but will die in their sleep. This suggests a lack of awareness and mindfulness, and urges the listener to wake up and sense the world around them. The message is a powerful one - that the choices we make matter, and that we should be mindful of their impact on ourselves and others.
