Neon
Klaus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I
I don’t need
Anybody
Cause I’ve learned to be
an iceberg
a ball
a mountain
Flaque d’eau in the fall

Say what you will
I don’t find this amusing anymore

There’s creatures in the hall
they’re all shaving off their hair
and I don’t feel so well

I
I don’t need
Anybody
to watch me bleed
switch the neons
made new friends

There’s no way to stop it now
music has no end

Lonely days
be a dear
Let the sun
Reach me here
I’ve been a slave to your low down ways
Don’t give a damn what you’ve got to say

The Neon shines
I’m beating time
I’ll be your lover
not a shrine

The waves shooting down in rays
Won’t back down to a lonely day





The neon shines in rays
it carries me away

Overall Meaning

In Klaus's song "Neon," the lyrics depict a sense of independence and self-reliance. The opening lines, "I don't need anybody cause I've learned to be an iceberg, a ball, a mountain," suggest that the singer has learned how to be self-sufficient and resilient like these powerful natural elements. They have become emotionally detached, comparing themselves to a "Flaque d'eau in the fall," which translates to a puddle of water in autumn. This imagery represents their ability to let emotions and negativity roll off of them.


As the song continues, the singer expresses a sense of weariness and disillusionment. They state, "Say what you will, I don't find this amusing anymore." This line indicates that they are no longer entertained or interested in the opinions and judgments of others. The mention of creatures in the hall shaving off their hair could symbolize conformity and the singer's discomfort with societal norms.


Despite their feelings of isolation, the singer asserts their independence by declaring, "I don't need anybody to watch me bleed." They have learned to rely on themselves and are unbothered by the opinions of others. The switch of the neons and making new friends signifies a change in their surroundings and a fresh start. They believe that music, represented as having no end, is a constant source of comfort and escape.


In the chorus, the neon symbolizes a vibrant and bright aspect of their life. The lyrics, "The Neon shines, I'm beating time, I'll be your lover not a shrine," suggest that they are embracing life's energy and rhythm, refusing to be placed on a pedestal as a passive object of admiration. They face challenging days with resilience, as indicated by the line, "Won't back down to a lonely day." It implies that they are determined to confront difficulties head-on and remain strong.


The song "Neon" is a testament to individuality, overcoming adversity, and finding solace in one's own strength. It depicts a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, where the singer embraces their uniqueness and refuses to conform to societal expectations.
