So Sick
Northern19 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that I'm alone
Cause right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
Cause you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(it's ridiculous)
And for some reason I just
(can't get over us)
And I'm stronger than this
(enough is enough)
No more walking round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Crying over you
And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
Gotta fix that calendar I have
That's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memory
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be
That's the reason I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Stupid love songs)
Don't make me think about her smile
Or having my first child
I'm letting go
Turning off the radio
Cause I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
Said I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishin' you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
Why can't I turn off the radio?
(why can't I turn off the radio?)
Why can't I turn off the radio?
The lyrics to Northern19’s song “So Sick” are a reflection on the aftermath of a breakup. The singer is struggling to move on from the past, even though it has been months since their partner left. The song starts with the singer changing their answering machine message. They state that although their partner left them, it's the only way they can still hear their voice. The lyrics suggest the singer is in disbelief, as they are unable to comprehend why they are unable to move on from the relationship. Despite this, they try to convince themselves they’re stronger and that they need to stop walking around with their head hung low. The chorus reveals that they are "so sick of love songs,” tired of crying, and "done with wishing she was still here."
The second verse suggests how the singer is fed up with their thoughts and memories of their relationship. They talk about how every song reminds them of what used to be. They want to forget their past relationships, and the chorus repeats the same feelings of being sick of love songs and wanting to turn off the radio. The bridge tells the listener that the singer is letting go of their feelings and doesn’t want any reminders of what was.
The lyrics to “So Sick” are powerful and relatable to anyone who has experienced a breakup. They reflect the pain and frustration that accompanies letting go of a past relationship. The song's catchy chorus and upbeat melody contrast with the sadness and pain that the lyrics explore, making it both an emotional and catchy tune.
