Lone Star Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know what it is to be sad"
And she's making me feel like I've never been born.
I said "Who put all those things in your head?
Things that make me feel that I'm mad
And you're making me feel like I've never been born."
I said "No, no, no, you're wrong"
When I was a boy everything was right
Everything was right
I said "Even though you know what you know
I know that I'm ready to leave
'Cause you're making me feel like I've never been born."
She said "you don't understand what I said"
I said "No, no, no, you're wrong"
When I was a boy everything was right
Everything was right
I said "Even though you know what you know
I know that I'm ready to leave
'Cause you're making me feel like I've never been born."
She said , she said "I know what it's like to be dead"
("I know what it's like to be dead")
I know what it is to be sad...
The lyrics of Lone Star's song "She Said She Said" tell the story of a conversation between two people who are not on the same wavelength. The first verse has the woman telling the singer that she knows what it's like to be dead and sad, and the singer feels like he has never been born because of her words. He tries to understand where her thoughts are coming from by asking her who put those things in her head, but she dismisses him by saying that he doesn't understand. The singer insists that he knows what he wants, which is to leave, and he blames the woman for making him feel like he has never been born.
The chorus repeats the same lines, with the singer insisting that he knows he is ready to leave, and the woman repeating that she knows what it's like to be dead and sad. The last line of the song has her repeating the line, "I know what it is to be sad," emphasizing that the conversation has not resolved anything.
The lyrics of "She Said She Said" are open to interpretation, but many believe that it is a song about miscommunication and the inability of two people to understand each other. Some also interpret the song as a commentary on the drug culture of the 60s, specifically LSD, which was known to produce experiences of feeling like one had died or been reborn.
