Hologram
Olivia Anna Livki Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One, two, yeah,
one, two, three, four!

I would like, I would like, I really would like some company.
I would like, I would like, I really would like some company.

You see, I would like you to provide me with some, some company.
But I would like to know more about your company…

So I….
I go to the ministry. And everytime I come around everybody's real nice, everybody's real nice every time I come around.
But there's just one thing that strikes me, Ma'am.

Everybody is a hologram. Look!

One two three four…

three two one…
Makes me get the gun.

See, now when I'm uptight I really would like some company.
See, now when I'm uptight I really would like some company.

See I got this invoice for my TV after a man in a suit came and criminalized me. Then he googled my CV, now he's coming every Friday for tea and cookies trying to advise me so I…

I go to the ministry. And everytime I come around everybody's real nice, everybody's real nice every time I come around. But there's just one thing that strikes me, Ma'am.
Everybody is a hologram. Look!

-Sorry I took that gun.
-What was that?

- I don't know…
-Will you look around? They're knockin' at your doors, hone!

-Come on, listen! Listen!
See now when I'm uptight you know I could kill. Cause each time someone's making me happy against my will.





"Please can I help you Ma'am? Ma'am, I'm a hologram. This place is a hologram. My face is a holo---a haha. I'm wife to a hologram. My life is a hologram. Your dog is a hologram. (Oh by the way). God is a holo---a haha!"

Overall Meaning

The song 'Hologram' by Olivia Anna Livki seems to be a reflection of the current generation's need for connection and real human interaction in the digital era. The opening lines of the song reveal the longing for company and genuine communication as the artist repeats the phrase "I would like, I would like, I really would like some company." The next verse then jumps into the idea of going to the ministry to meet people, but then the revelation comes that everyone is a hologram. Hence, the people around the artist are unreal and do not provide the desired connection. The artist feels alone in a world of fakeness and reiterates this in the subsequent verse where the idea of the man who criminalized her is introduced. Despite its catchy chorus, the lyrics are deeply rooted in their message based on the increasing isolation that is common in society due to increased technology and lack of genuine communication.


There is the presumption that perhaps the artist feels that people are getting lost in their avatars and cyber personalities, hence the reference to her "dog is a hologram" and "God is a hologram." It then culminated in the artist getting a gun and wanting to kill someone who made her happy against her will. While this exact meaning is up for debate, it seems to reflect frustrations with a digitalized society where there is a growing disconnect between people and their surroundings.
