U.F.O.
Rene Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silhouette beneath the moonlit sky
Who are you?' I ask to no reply
I swear it's not the first time that I've seen you
Somewhere in the distance but I've got no proof

Can you save us from this mess we've made
Can you take me away
I don't wanna be here when the cities fall
I don't really wanna be here at all

Staring out into an endless night
Was it you or did I trick my eyes?
I don't believe that we're the only kind
Is it too much to ask for a sign?

Can you save us from this mess we've made
Can you take me away
I don't wanna be here when the cities fall
I don't really wanna be here at all

Guess I'll watch the moon go by
Guess I'll keep living my life
But I won't stop looking out for you
I watch TV, I know it must be true

Can you save us from this mess we've made
Can you take me away
I don't wanna be here when the cities fall
I don't really wanna be here at all

Can you save us from this mess we've made
Can you take me away
I don't wanna be here when the cities fall
I don't really wanna be here at all

Take me away
When the cities fall (Take me away)
Oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh oh)




When the cities fall
Take me away

Overall Meaning

In "U.F.O." by Rene, the lyrics paint a picture of someone encountering a mysterious figure under the moonlit sky. The singer addresses the silhouette, questioning their identity, but receives no response. The lyrics suggest that this may not be the first time they've encountered this figure, but they lack concrete evidence.


Feeling disillusioned with the state of the world, the singer turns to the mysterious figure for salvation. They express a desire to be taken away, away from the impending destruction and chaos. The cities are metaphorically representative of the societal structures that are collapsing, and the singer expresses a reluctance to be present in this bleak reality.


As the song progresses, the singer continues to ponder the existence of extraterrestrial beings. They question whether they had truly seen the figure or if it was a trick of their own eyes. They express a belief that humanity is not the only intelligent species in the universe, and they long for a sign to validate this belief.


Despite not receiving any direct answers or assurance from the figure, the singer remains vigilant. They state that they will continue living their life, but will always be on the lookout for the mysterious presence. The mention of watching TV suggests that the singer, like many others, entertains the possibility of extraterrestrial life due to popular culture representations.


In conclusion, "U.F.O." by Rene explores themes of curiosity, existential questioning, and a desire for escape. The singer seeks answers and hopes for salvation from the mess humanity has created, contemplating the existence of other intelligent beings and longing for a sign.
