Lonely
McFly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it's like I can't go on
I just wanna say
I never meant to do you wrong
And I remember you told me, baby
Something's gotta give
If I can't be the one to hold you, baby, I
Now I'm so sick of being lonely
This is killing me so slowly
Don't pretend that you don't know me
'Cause that's the worse thing you could do
Now I'm singing such a sad song
These things never seem to last long
Something that I never planned on
Help me, baby, I'm so sick of being lonely
Your stuff is in my house
So many things I can't ignore
Your coat's still on the couch
Your photo's on my freezer door
And I remember you told me, baby
Something's gotta give
If I can't be the one to hold you, baby, I
Don't think I could live
Now I'm so sick of being lonely
This is killing me so slowly
Don't pretend that you don't know me
That's the worst thing you could do
Now I'm singing such a sad song
These things never seem to last long
Something that I never planned on
Help me, baby, I'm so sick of being lonely
Lalalalala. Lalalalala. Lalalalala.
I am so lonely
Whawhawhawhawha
Whawhawhawhawha
And I remember you told me, baby
Something's gotta give
If I can't be the one to hold you, baby, I don't think I could live
Now I'm so sick of being lonely
This is killing me so slowly
Don't pretend that you don't know me
That's the worst thing you could do
Now I'm singing such a sad song
These things never seem to last long
Something that I never planned on
Help me, baby, I'm so sick of being lonely
I am so lonely
I am so lonely
The song, Lonely by McFly, is a heart-wrenching portrayal of the pain one goes through after a breakup. The singer opens the song by expressing that although it has only been a day, it seems impossible to go on without his lover. He apologizes for any wrong he may have done but also reveals that his lover had warned him that things needed to change. He cannot bear the thought of not being able to hold his lover, and the idea alone is killing him slowly. He begs for help, unable to cope with the loneliness that has engulfed him since their separation.
The lyrics then transition to the physical reminders of his lover's absence, such as her belongings in his house, her coat still on the couch, and her photo still hanging on his fridge door. He reminisces about the conversation that led to their breakup and confesses that he would not be able to live without her. His pain is palpable as he pleads for his lover to acknowledge him and not pretend that she does not know the person he still is.
Towards the end of the song, the singer's longing for his lover becomes more evident as he repeats the word "lonely" multiple times, accompanied by a childlike wail. The song encapsulates the feeling of hopelessness and despair that follows a breakup, and the isolation that can accompany it.

It's only been a day
Even though it's only been one day since we broke up, it feels unbearable
But it's like I can't go on
I'm struggling to move forward without you
I just wanna say
I want to apologize for hurting you and breaking up with you
I never meant to do you wrong
I didn't intend to hurt you, it was a mistake
And I remember you told me, baby
I recall you saying
Something's gotta give
Things can't continue as they are, something has to change
If I can't be the one to hold you, baby, I
If I can't be with you and hold you, I
Don't think I could live
feel like I wouldn't be able to live without you
Now I'm so sick of being lonely
Being alone is making me extremely unhappy
This is killing me so slowly
The pain of not being with you is slowly destroying me
Don't pretend that you don't know me
Please don't act like you don't know me now that we're broken up

Now I'm singing such a sad song
This song I'm singing is a reflection of how sad I'm feeling
These things never seem to last long
A good thing like our relationship doesn't seem to last for long these days
Something that I never planned on
I didn't expect our relationship to end so soon
Help me, baby, I'm so sick of being lonely
I need your help, I can't bear being alone anymore
Your stuff is in my house
Your belongings are still in my house, reminding me of you
So many things I can't ignore
It's hard to ignore all the reminders of you around my house
Your coat's still on the couch
Your coat is still lying on the couch where you left it last time you were here
Your photo's on my freezer door
I can't even open my freezer without seeing a photo of you there
Lalalalala. Lalalalala. Lalalalala.
Instrumental break
I am so lonely
I feel incredibly lonely without you
Whawhawhawhawha
Sound of someone crying
And I remember you told me, baby
I recall you saying
Something's gotta give
We can't keep going like this, something has to change
If I can't be the one to hold you, baby, I don't think I could live
I can't go on if I can't be with you
Now I'm so sick of being lonely
Being alone is making me miserable
This is killing me so slowly
The pain of not being with you is slowly destroying me
Don't pretend that you don't know me
Don't act like you don't know me now that we're not together anymore
That's the worst thing you could do
That would hurt me even more if you acted like a stranger to me
Now I'm singing such a sad song
The song I'm singing reflects the deep sadness I'm feeling
These things never seem to last long
Good things like our relationship don't seem to last very long these days
Something that I never planned on
I didn't expect our relationship to end so fast

I need your help, I can't bear being alone anymore
I am so lonely
I feel incredibly lonely without you
