Paola & Chiara Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You feel on top,
You'll never see so you'll never stop!
You wanna be a superstar,
You run your race,
You'll never get far...
D'you like your friends?
How long d'you think you can pretend?
You're just a man,
You're made of flesh,
You're one of us,
Put yourself to the test..
I don't need your morphine,
I don't need your dope..
Had enough of all these lies cuz' you'll never cut...
I don't need your morphine,
It's bringing me down,
Stop to talk your nothing,
There's so much pain around.
The business man,
You're cars and cash,
You and your pussygirls,
You're gonna crash.
Is life a game?
It's such a shame,
There's no control,
No point of return.
You think it's fine,
You've crossed the line,
Your love is gone,
The damage is done.
You think it's good,
And it's a sin,
And time will tell if you'll loose or win...
I don't need your morphine,
I don't need your dope..
Had enough of all these lies cuz' you'll never cut...
I don't need your morphine,
It's bringing me down,
Stop to talk your nothing,
There's so much pain around.
It's just a waste of time,
We can make it all right.
I don't need your morphine,
I don't need your dope..
Had enough of all these lies cuz' you'll never cut...
I don't need your morphine,
It's bringing me down,
Stop to talk your nothing,
There's so much pain around
The lyrics of Paola & Chiara's song "Morphine" tell a story of a person who is hooked on success, fame, and material possessions, represented by the references to being a superstar, having cars and cash, and surrounding themselves with "pussygirls." However, the singer is not impressed and does not want to be a part of this lifestyle. She sees it for what it is - a drug, just like morphine or dope - that brings people down and gives them a false sense of satisfaction. The lyrics suggest that the person is pretending to be happy, but they are not really content with their lives, and they are damaging themselves and those around them.
The chorus, with the repetition of "I don't need your morphine," emphasizes the singer's rejection of this lifestyle and her desire to distance herself from it. She sees that there is so much pain around and that this lifestyle is not the answer to anyone's problems. The line "It's just a waste of time, we can make it all right" suggests that there is a better way, a possibility of a different kind of life that is not based on superficial values like fame and wealth.
Overall, the song "Morphine" is a critique of the shallow and toxic aspects of celebrity culture and market-driven values. The lyrics suggest that there is a cost to pursuing material wealth and that true happiness and contentment lie elsewhere.
