Poltergeist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The whole world
In fact you′re thinking
I'm a jerk
You tried to fool me
Like all the others
You brought me nothing
Wait Till I come into my own
I let you feel all my
Hate
So watch out and stay away
You better believe me
You fooled me once
You fooled me twice
I was insane
′Coz I took your advice
I lost my money
I lost my job
So take care honey
'Coz I'm not your friend anymore
I am screaming When I think about you
I can′t believe it
That I was such a fool
But now it′s over
You won't hurt me again
I was so wrong
When I trusted every friend
I′m still alive
It's good to live without your lies
I′m still alive
So you can kiss my ass good bye
You've been my friend
You told me so
But this is really
Long ago
Why did you turn
Your back on me
You thought I′m stupid
O would not see it
Wait
Till I come into my own
I let you feel all my
Hate
So watch out and stay away
You better believe me
Now it's enough
You had your joy
It's my turn now
And I′m not coy
I show you how
Revenge can taste
I better start now
The song “Still Alive” by Poltergeist is about a person who was betrayed by a friend or someone they trusted.

The singer of the song is angry and filled with hate towards the person who betrayed them, and they want revenge. However, they also acknowledge that they were a fool for trusting this person in the first place. The song ends with the singer declaring that they are still alive and ready to move on without the lies and deceit of their former friend.

You promised me
You made grand promises to me
The whole world
You promised me everything
In fact you′re thinking
Actually, you think I'm foolish
I'm a jerk
You believe that I am a fool
You tried to fool me
You attempted to deceive me
Like all the others
Just like everyone else
You brought me nothing
You provided me with nothing
But pain and sorrows
Instead, you gave me difficulties and grief
Wait Till I come into my own
Just wait until I reach my full potential
I let you feel all my
I will make you feel my
Hate
Hate and anger
So watch out and stay away
Be careful and keep your distance
You better believe me
You should believe what I say
You fooled me once
You tricked me once
You fooled me twice
You deceived me more than once
I was insane
I was crazy
′Coz I took your advice
Because I listened to your guidance
I lost my money
I ended up losing my money
I lost my job
I ended up losing my job
So take care honey
So take care, my dear
'Coz I'm not your friend anymore
Because I am no longer your friend
I am screaming When I think about you
I shout when I think of you
I can′t believe it
I can't comprehend it
That I was such a fool
That I was so foolish
But now it′s over
But now it is finished

You will not harm me again
I was so wrong
I was incorrect
When I trusted every friend
When I believed every friend
I′m still alive
I am still living
It's good to live without your lies
It feels better to live without your falsehoods
So you can kiss my ass good bye
So you can say goodbye to me
You've been my friend
You used to be my friend
You told me so
You said as much
But this is really
But this is all in the past
Long ago
A long time ago
Why did you turn
Why did you change
Your back on me
And leave me behind
You thought I′m stupid
You believed I was unintelligent
O would not see it
And wouldn't notice what you were doing
Now it's enough
Now it is sufficient
You had your joy
You had your fun
It's my turn now
Now it is my turn
And I′m not coy
And I'm not hesitant
I show you how
I will demonstrate to you
Revenge can taste
How sweet revenge is
I better start now
I had better begin now
