Fallen
Ill Niño Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Live your life like someone else
It only brings you further (Further)
All your feelings and your dreams
Talk is thoughts
I'll never see
It only gets you nowhere
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
Is it all right
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
Why can't I just be myself
Live my life through someone else
It only brings me further (Further)
All my feelings and my dreams
Talk is thouughts
I'll never see
It only gets you nowhere
Is it all right
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
Is it all right
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
FOR MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Is it all right
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
Is it all right
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
Is it all right
Fallen on my face
Life is not the same this time for me
The lyrics of Ill Niño's song Fallen seem to be about the struggle to maintain one's true identity and individuality in a world that often pressures people to conform and be someone they're not. The first verse acknowledges the pressure to fit in and be like others, but also recognizes that doing so doesn't lead to true happiness or fulfillment. The chorus, with its repeated refrain of "Fallen on my face," suggests that the singer has attempted to conform in the past and has failed or suffered as a result. The second verse shifts the focus to the singer's own struggles with identity and suggests that they have also struggled with the temptation to conform. Overall, the song seems to be a call to embrace one's true self, even if it means falling down sometimes.
