Lonesome
Pale Honey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could have left you with a stain
In case I knew that it was over
I could have walked away
Nothing could make stay
At least it can't go any slower
Nowhere to find you
Don't wanna find you
Nowhere to find you
Would believe you were lonesome
Don't belong with me
I never knew about the waste
It's time for me to taste
I know I'll get around without you
Never been this awake
I always lived to stay
I know I'll get around without you
Would believe you were lonesome
Don't belong with me
Could believe it would go so
You and me were wrong
Fish
I never told you that
I wanted this to go this way
I never told you why
You shouldn't believe what my dull eyes say
So I spun around
And fell off off off to the ground
I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I never told myself for what reason
I stopped to live
I just lie to myself
So I spun around
And fell off off off to the ground
I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I never told myself for what reason
I stopped to live
I just wanna be in your head
I just wanna be in you bed
So I spun around
And fell off off off to the ground
I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Fiction
Get me before I leave
Your opinion is mine
It is a bliss, could I ever be
You're an abyss
And I lay down
Fiction all the time
Go to sleep
You're all diseased again
I know, so I go again
And the sound
Will sweep you off your feet
My friend
It is a bliss, could I ever be
You're an abyss
And I lay down
Fiction all the time
Go to sleep
You're all diseased again
Fiction all the time
Go to sleep
You're all diseased again
The lyrics to Pale Honey's song Lonesome can be interpreted as the singer coming to terms with their relationship ending. They express regret about not leaving before their partner did, as they realize that the relationship was over. The singer acknowledges that they were not the right person for their partner, as they were lonesome and did not belong together. They also reflect on their own personal growth and how they have become more aware and awake in their life without their partner.
The overall tone of the song is melancholic, with a tinge of hopefulness. It is a song about coming to terms with a breakup and accepting the end of a relationship. The imagery of spinning around and falling to the ground could be interpreted as the singer feeling dizzy or disoriented in the aftermath of the breakup.

Unable to perceive the truth
Get me before I leave
Take me before I depart
Your opinion is mine
I agree with your point of view
It is a bliss, could I ever be
It is blissful and I might never experience it again
You're an abyss
You represent an unknown and unexplainable phenomenon
And I lay down
I lay down my burdens and forget my woes
Fiction all the time
Living in fantasy all the time
Go to sleep
I advise you to get some rest
You're all diseased again
You are unwell again
And the sound
Unknown
Will sweep you off your feet
It will make you feel in awe and magnificent
My friend
Term of endearment for whoever is being addressed
Fiction all the time
Living in fantasy all the time
Go to sleep
I advise you to get some rest
You're all diseased again
You are unwell again
