Solve My Mystery
Oasis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They took my faith
They put it in a headlock and
They sealed my fate
Somewhere inside the world
In which they live
Because I failed
They constantly ignore me and
They told me I lost my mind but
I believe that I rule the world

I'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
And you can pitch your gold against my soul
But I bet you get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
It won't be long
It won't be long
Till I solve my mystery

It would for me
What do I believe in and
A masterkey
Is somewhere inside of the world in which I live
And what for they
They will speak for no-one
And I may have lost my mind
But I believe that I rule my world

I'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
You can pitch your gold against my soul
But I bet you get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
It won't be long
It won't be long
Till I solve my mystery

And I'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
And you can pitch your gold against my soul
But you gotta get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
And it won't be long
It won't be long




Till I solve my mystery
Till I solve my mystery

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Oasis's song "Solve My Mystery" are introspective and probing, reflecting the frustration and alienation of the singer. The first verse declares that the singer's faith has been taken away and sealed, making it impossible for them to find hope or meaning. They believe that the outside world has judged them poorly, even though they haven't been given a fair chance to prove themselves. Despite the isolation they feel, the singer remains confident, believing that they rule their own world.


The second verse finds the singer grappling with questions of purpose and identity. They wonder what they truly believe in and whether there is a "masterkey" to unlock their understanding of the world. The outside world is still hostile and distant from them, but the singer insists on their own agency and authority. The chorus emphasizes this resolve, asserting that the singer is singing their "revolution song" and that nothing else matters. They refuse to be swayed by external pressure or temptation, claiming that even gold cannot compete with their soul. Ultimately, the singer is determined to keep searching until they solve the mystery of themselves and the world around them.


Line by Line Meaning

They took my faith
My faith was taken away from me


They put it in a headlock and
They exerted control over my faith


They sealed my fate
They determined my destiny


Somewhere inside the world
The answer or solution is somewhere in this world


In which they live
The answer or solution is in their world


Because I failed
Because I failed in some way


They constantly ignore me and
They regularly disregard me


They told me I lost my mind but
They accused me of insanity but


I believe that I rule the world
I believe that I have power or control over the world


I'm singing out my revolution song
I am expressing my rebellious spirit


Like nothing else matters
As if nothing else is important


And you can pitch your gold against my soul
You can try to tempt or bribe me with riches


But I bet you get shattered
But I am confident that you will fail


And there's a million houses in my heart
There are many emotions or feelings within me


It won't be long
It won't take much time


Till I solve my mystery
Until I figure out the answer to my problem


What do I believe in and
What is my belief system and


A masterkey
A key to unlock something important


Is somewhere inside of the world in which I live
The key is somewhere in my world


And what for they
And what about them


They will speak for no-one
They will not represent anyone's interests


And I may have lost my mind
And I may be considered insane


But I believe that I rule my world
But I still believe that I have power or control over my world

Fallon O’Hagan

Yup! This song is fantastic! NGHFB does it on one of their albums, but this version is WAY better.

Pathetic, moron troll.

Jordan McDonald

same here it's crazy I realy thought I'd heard them all then I stumble across this gem

VirtualVince

@Lazar What's the Story arguably has Liam's best singing before it started to go to pot, but the songs are mostly garbage nonsensical piles of cock mixed with liquid poop.

Brian Vande

@Vincecouk Strongly disagree. Definitely Maybe and WTSMG are both great, Be Here Now is pretty good, Heathen Chemistry is fantastic, and I also agree with their latest few. :)
