Forever alone?
Paindivision Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

True love is everything we live for
What we give for
What we sing for
Now we're clouded by social illusions
Emotional despair are we better of forever alone
True love is everything we live for
What we give for
What we sing for
Now we're clouded by social illusions
Emotional despair are we better of forever alone
Appearance is not all or so we're always told but nothing seems to last
Swipe right, have some bad sex. Not really a fulfilment you're more empty and alone
Side by side supposed to be there when you're feeling down
So alone even though we are so close
We're In the same bed still we're feeling sad
We talk but never really understand
We never set out to recent one another
Are we all better of forever alone?
Lack of commitment wanting what you only see in their pictures
I do the hard work while you sit back pretending to give a fuck
Side by side supposed to be there when you're feeling down
So alone even though we are so close
We're In the same bed still we're feeling sad
We talk but never really understand
We never set out to recent one another
Are we all better of forever alone?
No love
Go!
Lack of commitment wanting what you only see in their pictures
I do the hard work while you sit back pretending to give a fuck
Side by side supposed to be there when you're feeling down
So alone even though we are so close
We're In the same bed still we're feeling sad
We talk but never really understand
We never set out to recent one another




Are we all better of forever alone?
Forever alone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Paindivision's song "Forever Alone" explore the idea of true love and the emotional challenges that arise from societal expectations and illusions. The song questions whether it is better to be alone forever, as it seems that genuine connections are clouded by social pressures and the lack of understanding between individuals.


The repeated lines "True love is everything we live for, what we give for, what we sing for" highlight the significance of love in our lives. It emphasizes the deep desire to find love and the sacrifices made for it. However, the lyrics also acknowledge that these desires and aspirations are often overshadowed by societal illusions and emotional despair.


The song critiques the superficiality of modern dating culture, depicted through the line "Swipe right, have some bad sex. Not really a fulfillment, you're more empty and alone." It suggests that the emphasis on appearances and instant gratification only leads to a sense of emptiness and loneliness. Despite being physically close to someone, the feeling of sadness and disconnection persists, reinforcing the idea of being "forever alone."


The lyrics also touch upon the lack of commitment in relationships, with lines like "Lack of commitment wanting what you only see in their pictures" and "I do the hard work while you sit back pretending to give a fuck." This highlights the frustration of one party investing effort and care while the other remains indifferent, further contributing to feelings of loneliness and misunderstanding.


Ultimately, the song questions whether it is better to remain alone forever, posing the question, "Are we all better off forever alone?" The repeated mention of feeling alone despite physical proximity in the same bed speaks to the emotional distance that exists in relationships. It suggests that perhaps being alone provides a greater sense of self-fulfillment and understanding than being in a shallow or uncommitted relationship.


In conclusion, "Forever Alone" delves into the complexities of love and relationships, highlighting the impact of societal pressures, emotional distance, and the desire for genuine connections. The lyrics encourage listeners to reflect on the value of love and question whether being alone may ultimately lead to greater fulfillment.
