Låst
No. 4 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Låste dører brente broer
Sotet glass og mørke briller
Møter meg idet jeg snur
Angrer på mitt valg av veier
Jeg kommer ikke inn
Mista nøkkelen min

Alt jeg kan av veier stenges
Sendte brev returneres
Bommen den er nede nå
Strømmen er for sterk til å
Svømme over lover
Lovlig dårlig nå

Se på henne hun er der
Hun hun tar det rolig
Hun har alt man vil ha
Hun hun lever lykkelig
Hun kan puste ut hun
Hun lever livet hun
Jeg vil inn en dør jeg ville ut av før
Men alt er låst nå låst nå
Slipp meg inn lås opp døra jeg vil inn

Låste dører faste rammer daglige rutiner
Samme oppsett hver dag som går
Helt perfekt til man forstår
Når man vinner alt taper man samtidig en del

Det som var et åpent hav med masse fisk
Ble på en dag til en bolle med litt vann
Falske planter og litt sand
Var det dette her man drømte om i dårlig vær

Se på ham han er fri
Han han lever livet
Han har alt jeg vil ha
Han kan gjøre hva han vil
Han vil jeg være han
Han er heldig han
Jeg vil ut en dør jeg ville inn i før
Men alt er låst nå låst nå




La meg gå
Lås opp døra jeg vil ut

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Låst" by No. 4 describe a feeling of being trapped or locked out of something or somewhere. The lines "Låste dører brente broer" (locked doors and burnt bridges) suggest that the singer has made some irreversible decisions that have closed off paths that they now regret. The imagery of "Sotet glass og mørke briller" (smoked glass and dark glasses) adds to this feeling of being blocked or shut out, as if the world is hiding something from them. The singer is unable to find a way in and has lost their key, indicating a sense of powerlessness and frustration.


The chorus of the song "Slipp meg inn lås opp døra jeg vil inn" (let me in, unlock the door, I want in) expresses the desire to regain access to what has been lost, but it's not clear what exactly that thing is. The other verses explore different perspectives: a woman who appears to be content with her life, and a man who seems to be living the dream, but the singer envies them both and wishes they could switch places.


Overall, the lyrics capture a feeling of being stuck and wanting to break free, while also acknowledging the consequences of past choices and the fear of the unknown. The repetition of the phrase "alt er låst nå" (everything is locked now) emphasizes the theme of confinement and the need for a way out.
