Something
Monark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Although I try to hesitate
New kind of affliction
A love I cant avoid to hate
And I know, just how you feel
Cause I might, just feel the same
Now we both, taking the wheel
On a road, without a name
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your tears away
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your fears away
I feel an attraction
A feeling you will never find
And I need an eviction
So we could leave it all behind
And I know, just how you feel
Cause I might, just feel the same
Now we both, taking the wheel
On a road, without a name
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your tears away
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your fears away
They say never
We say forever
Cause no one tells us how
They ain't forgiving
But it don matter
We don mind showing how.
They say never
We say forever
Cause no one tells us how
They ain't forgiving
But it don matter
We don mind showing how.
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your tears away
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your fears away
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your tears away
I wanna know what its all about
You give me something that cant be found
And it feels like I wanna
Take your fears away
Monark’s song, "Something," is a song about the emotional journey of falling in love with someone who is dangerous for your heart. In the opening lines, the singer refers to their heart as a "victim" and tries to "hesitate" from giving into the new "affliction" of love, but despite their efforts, they cannot avoid its irresistible pull. The singer then acknowledges that their love interest may feel the same way, and together they are heading down a path without a clear direction or plan.
The chorus is an expression of the singer's desire to understand their feelings and to know what it's all about. They are grateful for the love and attraction their partner gives them, with the suggestion that it's something that cannot be found elsewhere. The singer wants to ease any pain their loved one might feel and take away their tears and fears, indicating a deep level of caring and devotion.
The second verse shows the urgency of the singer's emotions and the need to leave everything behind for a chance to be with their loved one. The final lines refer to the outside world's cynical attitude towards their love and relationship, but they don't care about the judgment because their love is forever.

I LOVE this song! I LOVE this band. Many artists feel that the industry is too small in SA to break through so they feel the need to venture overseas. You guys just keep doing what you're doing. So proud, so South African!!
