Heartache
HeyLasFas! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Did they ask about the filly in the mask?
Did they even care at all?
Did they hold out for a princess who never came?
Would they catch her when she falls?

I made it obvious enough.
Who would have thought to call my bluff?
Did it burn for everyone?
Or was it just my turn again?
Did it hurt for everyone?
Or was I just alone again?

Did it burn for everyone?
Or was it just my turn again?
Did it hurt for everyone?
Or was I just alone again?





All I want is to go home.

Overall Meaning

HeyLasFas!'s Heartache may seem like a mellow and emotional song that is easy to understand, but its lyrics can be interpreted to convey deeper meanings. The lyrics talk about the feeling of abandonment and the inability to find a way back home either physically or emotionally.


The verse "Did they ask about the filly in the mask? Did they even care at all? Did they hold out for a princess who never came? Would they catch her when she falls?" seems to suggest that the singer feels like an outsider who is not understood by anyone else. She questions if anyone cares about her or if anyone is willing to help her in times of need. The use of the word "filly" and "princess" connotes the singer's idea of feeling weak and vulnerable, in need of a hero or someone who can rescue her.


The chorus "Did it burn for everyone? Or was it just my turn again? Did it hurt for everyone? Or was I just alone again? All I want is to go home." expresses the singer's deep sense of sadness, loneliness, and despair. She questions whether the agony she's going through is a shared human experience or if she's the only one going through it. Her desire to go home can be interpreted as her longing for a place or a state where she feels safe and secure, where she can be herself, and where she doesn't have to hide her vulnerabilities.


Overall, the song touches on universal themes of loneliness, vulnerability, and the search for identity while also conveying a personal story of a young girl who is struggling to find a place where she belongs.
