S.O.S.
One Man Army Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

S.O.S. In A State Of Emergency
The Situations And The Prying Eyes
Looking At Me
Is There No Where I Could Go?
Somewhere You Couldn't See
S.O.S. In A State Of Emergency
So Let's Say For A Second
I've Grown Attached
My Life Is A Mess
I'm Total Waste
And The Pills That They Gave Me
Just Give Me The Shits
I Don't Think They Work
I'm Suppose To Fit In
Let's Say But Just For A Second
I'm Only Kidding
I'm Well Adjusted
Let's Say Nothin' At All
In A State Of Emergency




I'm Calling Out To Anyone
An S.O.S. I'm In A State Of Emergency

Overall Meaning

In "S.O.S", One Man Army sings about feeling trapped and watched constantly, feeling like there is no escape from the "situations" and "prying eyes" that are monitoring their every move. The lyrics suggest a sense of desperation and a need for help, as evidenced by the repeated phrase "S.O.S. in a state of emergency". The singer questions whether there is anywhere they can go to escape the scrutiny and judgment of others, presenting a bleak outlook and a sense of hopelessness.


The second verse of the song adds to this despair, painting a picture of a life that is falling apart. The singer describes themselves as a "total waste", struggling with addiction and feeling like the medication they have been given is ineffective. The line "I'm supposed to fit in" suggests that the pressure to conform and meet societal standards is adding to the singer's stress, as they struggle to keep up appearances and maintain a facade of happiness and functionality.


Overall, "S.O.S" is a poignant commentary on the struggles of living in a world where one's every move is scrutinized and judged by others. It speaks to the pressure to perform and the feeling of being trapped that many people experience, and serves as a call for help and a plea for understanding.
