Sorrow
Lambretta Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see you dying without pain
Poison pumping through your veins

When you're down and out
Is it fun what is it all about

Can you live without tomorrow
Can you live without today

Questions full of sorrow
But the pain is for you to pay

You tell me nothing else but lies
Sweet sweet lullabies

When you're?
Can you live?
When you're stoned
Soon entombed
Can't you see It's not reality

Can you live?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lambretta's song "Sorrow" describe the pain and suffering that comes with addiction. The opening lines paint a stark image of someone slowly dying from the poison coursing through their veins. The chorus asks tough questions about the purpose of life and whether it's worth living for someone caught in the grips of addiction. The lyrics suggest that addiction is a cycle that entraps the user in a web of lies and sweet-talking, with the user unable to see how far removed they are from reality.

The lyrics are a powerful commentary on the destructive nature of addiction and its impact on the lives of those caught in its grip. The song is a reminder that addiction doesn't just affect individuals, but also their loved ones who are forced to stand by and watch as their loved ones slowly destroy themselves.

Line by Line Meaning

I see you dying without pain
I witness you departing without suffering, with poison flowing inside your veins.

When you're down and out Is it fun what is it all about
During times of despair and destitution, does a sense of pleasure exist in this existence?

Can you live without tomorrow Can you live without today Questions full of sorrow But the pain is for you to pay
Is it feasible to exist without thinking about the future or present? Worrying inquiries that bring unhappiness, with the resultant discomfort being your penalty to pay.

You tell me nothing else but lies Sweet sweet lullabies
The things you say are all fallacies, filled with pleasant but false melodies.

When you're? Can you live?
When you are under the influence of something, can you exist in reality?

When you're stoned Soon entombed Can't you see It's not reality
When you are under the influence of some substance, you are about to be buried, and you are unable to perceive that it is not actuality.

Can you live?
Is it possible for you to continue living?
