Simple
Hi-Polar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I hope I die a simple death
Not like my dreams where I'm losing breath
Out of the sky falls my life
Oooo

I hope you die a simple death
Go to bed and never lift your head again
I'd hate to hear you left us in pain
Oooo

I hope you live
As long as you can live
Unlike my dreams
Where I'm pulling you in




You can let me go if you wanna
Oooo

Overall Meaning

In the first verse, the songwriter expresses a desire for a simple death. This may suggest a longing for an end free from complications or unnecessary suffering. The contrast is made with dreams, where the individual feels a sense of suffocation, as if they are losing breath. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the struggles and challenges they face in their waking life. The line "out of the sky falls my life" adds a mysterious and unexpected element, perhaps implying that the circumstances surrounding their death may be out of their control.


In the second verse, the focus shifts to someone else, with the songwriter expressing a similar hope for a simple death for that person. The phrase "go to bed and never lift your head again" illustrates a desire for a peaceful and uneventful passing. The songwriter also mentions a fear of hearing that this person has left the world in pain, suggesting a sense of empathy and caring for their well-being, despite any differences or conflicts that may exist.


However, in the next section, the songwriter seemingly changes their perspective. They express a wish for the listener to live as long as possible, contradicting their desire for a simple death for themselves and others. The songwriter acknowledges that in their dreams, they try to hold onto the listener, potentially indicating a desire for a deeper connection or attachment. The line "You can let me go if you wanna" suggests a readiness to accept if the listener chooses to distance themselves or move on, emphasizing a sense of respect for their autonomy or choice.


Overall, these lyrics evoke a complex mix of emotions, including the desire for simplicity, empathy for others' pain, and the intertwining of personal desires and relationships. They invite listeners to reflect on themes of mortality, connection, and the varying desires we hold for ourselves and those we care about.
