Something's Wrong
Jesus and Mary Chain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another day of life without you
And as I look around me
I feel so lonely there's no one
No one here beside me
No one here to help to see me through
To see me through
To see me through
'cause I need you
Been standing still for much too long
And I realise there's something wrong
I'm feeling strange, I need a change
And I realise that there's something wrong
There's something wrong
There's something wrong
Another two years over
Don't understand what's happened to me
These days are so much colder
Up against the fire, don't feel any heat
Cracked up years behind me
Cracked up years ahead are all I see
Are all I see
The lyrics to Jesus and Mary Chain's song Something's Wrong convey a sense of loneliness and emptiness that is pervasive throughout the song's entirety. The opening verse, "Another day goes by me" sets the tone for the song's melancholic mood. The singer reflects on the emptiness he feels in his life, saying "Another day of life without you / And as I look around me / I feel so lonely there's no one / No one here beside me." The sense of isolation and longing for companionship is palpable in the lyrics, and the repetition of "no one" emphasizes this.
As the song progresses, the singer becomes increasingly introspective, recognizing that there is something wrong with his life. He admits to "standing still for much too long" and feeling "strange" and in need of a change. The chorus repeats the phrase "There's something wrong" several times, conveying a sense of urgency and anxiety. The bridge of the song incorporates a sense of time passing, with the line "Another two years over / Don't understand what's happened to me." This underscores the singer's sense of confusion and disorientation as he grapples with his identity and purpose.
In conclusion, Something's Wrong is a poignant meditation on the human condition, grappling with themes of loneliness, isolation, and the search for meaning. The song's sparse and haunting instrumentation, combined with the vulnerability inherent in the lyrics, make it a moving and evocative piece of music.

Another day goes by me
Time passes without you in my life
Another day of life without you
I'm still living without you
And as I look around me
As I survey my surroundings
I feel so lonely there's no one
I am filled with loneliness as I see no one around me
No one here beside me
No one to comfort me or stand by my side
No one here to help to see me through
No one around to assist me through this difficult time
To see me through
To guide me and offer support
'cause I need you
Because I require your presence in my life
'cause I need you
I desire you to be by my side
Been standing still for much too long
I haven't progressed or evolved in too long
And I realise there's something wrong
I have come to the realization that something isn't right
I'm feeling strange, I need a change
I sense pivotal changes need to happen.
And I realise that there's something wrong
I acknowledge that there is something unbalanced
There's something wrong
I detect something troubling in my life
There's something wrong
I detect something troubling in my life
Another two years over
Yet another endless two years passes by
Don't understand what's happened to me
I'm unclear about what is currently transpiring to my life
These days are so much colder
The previous joyous days are now gloomy and sad
Up against the fire, don't feel any heat
I used to feel passion and excitement, but I'm now empty
Cracked up years behind me
I appear to have lost many years of my life
Cracked up years ahead are all I see
I see nothing but broken and painful years ahead of me

Another day goes by me
Another day of life without you
And as I look around me
I feel so lonely there's noone
Noone here beside me
Noone here to help to see me through
To see me through
To see me through
Cause I need you
Cause I need you
Been standing still for much too long
And I realise there's something wrong
I'm feeling strange, I need a change
And I realise that there's something wrong
There's something wrong
There's something wrong
Another two years over
Don't understand what's happened to me
These days are so much colder
Up against the fire, dont feel any heat
Cracked up years behind me
Cracked up years ahead are all I see
Are all I see.

Another day goes by me
Another day, a month, and a year
When I look around me
I feel so lonely there's no one near
No one here beside me
No one here to help to see me through
To see me through
To see me through
Cause I need you
Cause I need you
Been standing still for much too long
And I realize there's something wrong
I'm feeling strange, I need a change
And I realize there's something wrong
There's something wrong
There's something wrong
Another two years over
Don't understand what's happened to me
These days are so much colder
Up against the fire, don't feel any heat
Cracked up years behind me
Cracked up years ahead are all I see
Are all I see
In front of me...
