On 17 March 2017, Marnik scored their first hit with "Children of a Miracle", a collaborative effort with Don Diablo and Galantis singer Reece Bullimore of "No Money" fame.
In May 2018, in collaboration with Steve Aoki, they released a dance version of "Bella ciao", a traditional folk protest song from the 19th century that became very popular within the anti-fascist movement during the Italian civil war (1943-1945). Marnik's version of the track generated controversy as many commentators felt it was inappropriate and disrespectful towards the Italian partisans struggle.
Alone
Marnik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's like everybody left without me
Oh, I'm letting go
Feel the headlights crashing, my life flashing
Whoa, I'm so alone
It's like everybody left without me
Oh, I'm letting go
I see you on my screen
Are you just a fantasy?
Baby, you're not even there
Maybe you don't even care
'Cause I stare at my phone
Thinking you could be the one, oh
And I'm done waiting, hesitating
Whoa, I'm so alone
It's like everybody left without me (whoa)
Whoa, I'm so alone
It's like everybody left without me
Oh, I'm letting go
Feel the headlights crashing, my life flashing
The lyrics of Marnik, KSHMR, Anjulie, Jeffrey Jey's song "Alone" are about feeling disconnected from the world and desperately seeking companionship. The repeated refrain "whoa, I'm so alone, it's like everybody left without me" emphasizes the sense of abandonment that the singer feels. The line "feel the headlights crashing, my life flashing" probably refers to the feeling of being alone and helpless when one is in a car accident. It could also be interpreted as a metaphor for the sensation of life moving too rapidly, with everything happening in a blur of activity.
The second verse speaks about looking for comfort in the wrong places. The singer sees someone on their phone's screen and wonders if this person is a figment of their imagination or a real possibility for connection. However, the line "maybe you don't even care" suggests a sense of disinterest or detachment from the other person. Despite this, the singer still holds out hope that this virtual connection could fill the void they feel.
Overall, the song evokes a mood of desperation and yearning for human connection. Whether it be through physical presence or digital communication, the singer is searching for a way to feel less alone in the world. The repetition of the chorus drives home this sense of isolation, with the singer feeling like an outcast in a world that has moved on without them.
