Lovely
Khalid & Billie Eilish Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thought I found a way out (found)
But you never go away (never go away)
So I guess I gotta stay now
Oh, I hope some day I'll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near
Isn't it lovely, all alone
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home
Walkin' out of town
Lookin' for a better place (lookin' for a better place)
Something's on my mind (mind)
Always in my head space
But I know some day I'll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can't fight my fear
Isn't it lovely, all alone
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home
Whoa, yeah
Yeah, ah
Whoa, whoa
Hello, welcome home
The song "Lovely" by Khalid and Billie Eilish describes the feeling of being trapped in a situation, trying to escape but feeling like there is no way out. The first two lines of the song suggest that the singer thought they had found a way out, but the person they are singing about never goes away. The lyrics go on to describe the struggle of wanting to escape and find a better place to be, but not being able to find a safe space. The repetition of "need a place to hide, but I can't find one near" highlights the feeling of being stuck and unable to escape.
The chorus of the song, "Isn't it lovely, all alone, heart made of glass, my mind of stone, tear me to pieces, skin to bone, hello, welcome home" presents a juxtaposition between the beauty of being alone and the pain of feeling fragile and broken. The singer acknowledges the beauty of being on their own, but also recognizes the toll it takes on them. They feel like they are being torn apart and that they have become a shell of themselves, yet at the same time, they welcome it, as it is the only thing that they are familiar with.
Overall, the song is a powerful representation of the feeling of being stuck and unable to escape. The lyrics are poignant and relatable, and the melody adds to the overall mood of the song, accentuating the themes of loneliness and despair.
