Where Are You?
Sarah Jane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Am I scared? Will this be right?
Blind to me, catch a glimpse unseen
I know you won't believe but you're living in your dreams
What's it like to be a man?
What's it like to have it all?
Where is all my confidence?
Cover up this is life, it's tough
You would like to see
What's right underneath
Play the song but if it's not rude it's wrong
It's just my privilege to not go out and live
What's it like to be a man?
What's it like to have it all?
Where is all my confidence?
What's it like to be a man?
What's it like to have it all?
Where is all my confidence?
What's it like to have a man?
What's it like to be it all?
Where are all my loving friends?
Did I let them go?
Where did they go?
Where did I go?
The lyrics to Sarah Jane's song "Where Are You?" delve into themes of self-doubt, longing for success, and questioning one's identity and relationships. The opening lines, "Lemon lime drip in my eyes, Am I scared? Will this be right?" suggest a feeling of uncertainty and fear about the future. The mention of a "blind glimpse unseen" indicates a sense of being misunderstood or overlooked by others. The following line, "I know you won't believe but you're living in your dreams," suggests a disconnect between the expectations and reality of life.
The chorus repeatedly asks, "What's it like to be a man? What's it like to have it all? Where is all my confidence?" These questions reflect a longing for understanding and a desire to embody qualities associated with power and success. It hints at a feeling of inadequacy or a sense of not measuring up to societal standards.
The verse, "Cover up this is life, it's tough, you would like to see, what's right underneath, play the song but if it's not rude it's wrong, it's just my privilege to not go out and live," suggests a facade being maintained, concealing the struggles and complexities of life. The idea of privilege is referenced, highlighting a perspective of someone who doesn't fully engage with life or take risks.
The final section of the song reflects on the singer's relationships, expressing a sense of loss and questioning where their supportive friends have gone. The repetition of "Where did they go? Where did I go?" implies a feeling of disconnection or estrangement.
Overall, "Where Are You?" delves into themes of uncertainty, longing, and self-reflection. It explores a deep introspection about one's identity, relationships, and the desire for success.
