Blackout
Planet-Area feat. Kirsty Hawkshaw Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You let the blackout take me

I walk with the dead, but I feel the souls
Crawl into my heart and they keep it cold
I never wanted to live forever
Now you are the pressure holding me together
I never wanted to live forever
You let the blackout take me

Right to where you are
But I blacked out all the memories
I don't care how far
You have to go to erase me

Drive in all the nails when the coffins close
Let me take the fall for another ghost
I never wanted to live forever
To Erase Me
Forever
To Erase Me

Right to where you are
But I blacked out all the memories
I don't care how far
You have to go to erase me

Well you can fucking try
Abandoned me
Left all on my own again
A fall from grace
I'll always remember what you did
To erase me
But I blacked out all the memories

You let the blackout take me

Right to where you are
But I blacked out all the memories
I don't care how far
You have to go to erase me

Right to where you are
But I blacked out all the memories




I don't care how far
You have to go to erase me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Blackout" by Planet-Area feat. Kirsty Hawkshaw depict feelings of abandonment and betrayal in a relationship. The singer is haunted by the memories of their former partner, which keep them emotionally cold and tied to the past. They never wanted to live forever, but their ex's pressure is like a coffin nail, driving them deeper into despair. However, they also feel a sense of defiance, willing to fall for another ghost and daring their former partner to try and erase them completely. In essence, the singer is both haunted by their memories and yet simultaneously seeking to escape them.


The theme of memories and their impact on our lives is at the heart of "Blackout." The image of a blackout is used to convey the way in which our past can overwhelm us and render us powerless to change our present. The idea of being taken right to where someone else is suggests that memories can be like a prison - keeping us tied to the past and unable to move on. At the same time, the singer is attempting to break free from the chains of the past and move on, despite the pain and struggle that it involves.


Line by Line Meaning

You let the blackout take me
You allowed my mind to shut down and lose consciousness


I walk with the dead, but I feel the souls
I am surrounded by death, but I sense and connect with the spiritual essence within


Crawl into my heart and they keep it cold
These souls have entered my heart, leaving it numb and frozen


I never wanted to live forever
Immortality was never my desire


Now you are the pressure holding me together
You are the force that keeps me from falling apart


Right to where you are
I have been brought to your location


But I blacked out all the memories
I have purposely forgotten all remembrance of our past


I don't care how far
No matter the distance


You have to go to erase me
You must go to great lengths to completely remove me from your life


Drive in all the nails when the coffins close
Ensure my downfall and bury me with the dead


Let me take the fall for another ghost
Blame me for the actions of another spirit


Well you can fucking try
You can attempt to erase me, but it will not be easy


Abandoned me
You left me alone and deserted


Left all on my own again
I am once again in solitude


A fall from grace
I have descended from a state of favor or respect


I'll always remember what you did
I will never forget the wrongs you have committed against me


To Erase Me
Your goal is to remove me completely from your life


Forever
Your quest for my erasure will last indefinitely
