Out Of My Head
Northern Lite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know without a reason you would never do
And first you always think of what is best for you
That's why it's easy to know what you gonna do
Sometimes I feel like you can only be glad
Right when you find out something making me mad
Been trying to remember all that that you said
Get you out of my head now
There's been a moment of truth that we had
And that is something I will never foget
Been trying to remember all that you said
And now I'm trying to get you out of my head
Get out of my head now
The lyrics of "Out of My Head" by Northern Lite describe a complicated relationship where one person loves the other without reason, but the other only thinks of what's best for themselves. The singer is trying to remember everything that was said during a "moment of truth," likely a confrontation or argument, and is now trying to "get you out of my head." The song captures the frustration and pain of loving someone who doesn't reciprocate those feelings fully.
The chorus of the song repeats the message of the title, "Get you out of my head now." This repetition highlights the struggle of trying to forget someone who has left a lasting impact on the singer's life. The line "sometimes I feel like you can only be glad right when you find out something making me mad" shows how the other person in the relationship only seems to be happy when the singer is upset. This dynamic adds to the complexity of the relationship and adds to the frustration of the singer.
Overall, "Out of My Head" is a powerful expression of the struggles of a one-sided relationship and the difficulty of forgetting someone who meant so much.
