Rome
Please Madame Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Broken, burnt alive should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next

One day I will wake up in a room
With only strangers to talk to
And definitions will define themselves
Before anxiety helps me again
Travel back to Rome
Look for when it broke
Will never find it again
At least my hands stopped hurting
Travel to LA
I'm way to far astray
Confusing danger with fear
From all the pills I've taken

Broken burnt alive should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next
Promise of foreverness
Should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next

Sometimes the lies of people give me a strange feeling of comfort
And I never told nobody asked me to load
My boat with more of the future

Travel back to Rome
Look for when it broke
Will never find it again
At least my hands stopped hurting
Travel to LA
I'm way to far astray
Confusing danger with fear
From all the pills I've taken

I am burnt alive, should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next

And I am burnt alive should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next
Promise of foreverness
Should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next





And I am burnt alive should I deal with it
I never know what's gonna happen next

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Rome" by Please Madame depict the struggles and uncertainties of life. The opening line "Broken, burnt alive should I deal with it" sets a melancholic tone, with the singer feeling helpless in dealing with the challenges life has thrown at them. They are constantly on edge, unsure of what will happen next. The line "And definitions will define themselves before anxiety helps me again" suggests that the singer is struggling to make sense of their emotions and is relying on anxiety to guide them.


The chorus of the song brings up the idea of travelling back to Rome, possibly a reference to a past experience or relationship that didn't work out. The singer seems to be looking for answers, searching for a point where things went wrong and questioning whether they should continue to hold on to the promise of foreverness, or if they should accept the uncertainty of life.


The second verse mentions the lies of people giving the singer a strange feeling of comfort, hinting at the idea that the singer is disillusioned with the world and has lost faith in those around them. The line "My boat with more of the future" suggests that the singer is wary of looking too far ahead, potentially fearing the unpredictability of the future.


Overall, "Rome" by Please Madame is a hauntingly honest portrayal of the chaos and confusion that can come with life's uncertainties. It's a plea for guidance and an exploration of the feelings that come with the unknown.


Line by Line Meaning

Broken, burnt alive should I deal with it
I feel shattered and devastated, and I don't know how to cope with it


I never know what's gonna happen next
I feel unsure and frightened about my future


One day I will wake up in a room
Someday, I might find myself isolated without any familiar faces around me


With only strangers to talk to
I might only have unfamiliar people to interact with in this new and strange place


And definitions will define themselves
The meanings of things might become clearer in this unfamiliar environment


Before anxiety helps me again
But I know that my anxiety might resurface and make things difficult again


Travel back to Rome
I long to revisit the past and figure out where things went wrong


Look for when it broke
I want to pinpoint the moment when everything fell apart


Will never find it again
But I know deep down that I can't change what's already happened


At least my hands stopped hurting
I may not have found answers, but at least I've found some relief


Travel to LA
I've ventured far away from where I used to be


I'm way too far astray
I feel lost and alone in this new environment


Confusing danger with fear
In my disorientation, I'm struggling to distinguish between genuine danger and irrational fear


From all the pills I've taken
Perhaps my struggles have led me to rely heavily on medication to cope


Promise of foreverness
The idea of something lasting forever is both tantalizing and daunting


Sometimes the lies of people give me a strange feeling of comfort
I've grown so accustomed to deception that it feels almost familiar and comforting


And I never told nobody asked me to load
But I know that my reliance on dishonesty was ultimately my choice


My boat with more of the future
I piled on more and more deception, hoping it would lead to a better tomorrow


And I am burnt alive should I deal with it
I am struggling to cope with the intense pain I feel inside


Promise of foreverness
The idea of something lasting forever is both tantalizing and daunting


Should I deal with it
I'm grappling with whether or not I can handle these overwhelming emotions


I never know what's gonna happen next
I am constantly plagued by uncertainty and fear of the unknown
