No Problems
Kill the Young Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ever get the feeling
That there's somebody out there
And do you ever think
That they know what you're thinking

Now the satellites are down
We can ask them to calm down
Control is the core
It's nineteen eighty four

We're a breakthrough
We're defiant
But we're blinded
By the science
We're a breakthrough
We're defiant
But we're deafened
By the silence

Hey Mr No One
You can have my eyes
Or the maybe just the one
I've heard of the kingdom

Try to kill me
Try to find me
I don't listen any more
I've got no problems
No problems
I don't listen any more

Hypothetical question
Are we paranoid?




Hypothetical answer
That depends on who's asking

Overall Meaning

"No Problems" by Kill the Young is a song that touches upon the themes of paranoia, control, and being blinded by science. The song starts by questioning the feeling of being watched and the idea that someone knows what we are thinking. The lyrics "Ever get the feeling, That there's somebody out there, And do you ever think, That they know what you're thinking" highlight this sentiment perfectly.


Next, the song talks about control being the core and references "Nineteen Eighty-Four", a novel by George Orwell, which is a commentary on government surveillance and totalitarianism. The lines "Now the satellites are down, We can ask them to calm down, Control is the core, It's nineteen eighty-four" are significant to the song's interpretation in this regard.


The chorus talks about being a breakthrough and being defiant, but at the same time being blinded and deafened by the science and silence. The lines "We're a breakthrough, We're defiant, But we're blinded by the science, We're a breakthrough, We're defiant, But we're deafened by the silence" emphasize this idea of being controlled and manipulated without even realizing it.


The lines, "Hey Mr No One, You can have my eyes, Or the maybe just the one, I've heard of the kingdom, Try to kill me, Try to find me, I don't listen anymore, I've got no problems, No problems, I don't listen anymore" delve deeper into the idea of paranoia and the sense of being watched. The singer of the song is willing to give his eyes to Mr. No One, which could signify an attempt to hide from the surveillance. However, the singer then goes on to claim that he doesn't care anymore and isn't listening anymore, indicating a sense of resignation and hopelessness.
