Sirens
Lorena Simpson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I heard the sirens
When I was with you
I′ve felt your distance
But I loved you
Saw all the signs
That you gave me too
Why did you have
To go?

My friends warned me
About the truth
They told me
You were distance
But I loved you
You're stuck in my heart
It′s like a tattoo
Why did you have to leave?

We had the chance
To keep going with our love
You ran away breaking up my heart
It's the end we no longer have time
To play pretend faking we were fine

We had the chance
To keep going with our love
You ran away breaking up my heart
It's the end we no longer have time
To play pretend faking we were fine

I heard the sirens
When I was with you
I′ve felt your distance
But I loved you
Saw all the signs
That you gave me too
Why did you have
To go?

My friends warned me
About the truth
They told me
You were distance
But I loved you
You′re stuck in my heart
It's like a tattoo
Why did you have to leave?

We had the chance
To keep going with our love
You ran away breaking up my heart
It′s the end we no longer have time
To play pretend faking we were fine

We had the chance
To keep going with our love
You ran away breaking up my heart




It's the end we no longer have time
To play pretend faking we were fine

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lorena Simpson's "Sirens" touch on the theme of a relationship that was doomed from the start. The singer sings of hearing sirens, representing the warning signs that she ignored while she was with her partner. She acknowledges that she felt his distance and that her friends warned her of the truth, but her love for him kept her from seeing the inevitable end. The metaphorical sirens may also represent the emotional turmoil and chaos that came with the relationship.


The singer regrets not seeing the signs that her partner was about to leave, as if it was something inevitable like a tattoo that she cannot remove. She questions why he had to leave, despite having a chance to keep going with their love. The second verse continues with the same theme, as she questions why he had to break her heart by running away. She accepts that it is the end of their love story and they no longer have time to pretend that everything was fine between them.


Overall, "Sirens" is a powerful ballad about the aftermath of a toxic relationship. The singer is aware of the warning signs but chooses to ignore them due to her love for her partner. However, when her partner eventually does leave, the pain is enormous, and the singer is left to lament over the loss and question why it had to happen.
