Låt Mig Gå
Solen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mitt liv är gjort av plast
I mina ådror rinner stål
och mitt hjärta pumpar kol

Jag fryser nästan varje natt
men inte för att det är kallt
Jag måste ta mig härifrån
så se mig, se mig, låt mig gå

Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut
Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut
Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut

I mina ådror rinner stål
och mitt hjärta pumpar kol
Jag måste ta mig härifrån
så se mig, se mig, låt mig gå

Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut
Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut

Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut
Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Solen's song, "Låt mig gå in", tell a story of a person who feels trapped and disconnected from their surroundings. The first line, "Mitt liv är gjort av plast" (My life is made of plastic), suggests a sense of superficiality and artificiality. The following lines, "I mina ådror rinner stål / och mitt hjärta pumpar kol" (Steel runs through my veins / and my heart pumps coal), symbolize a feeling of inner strength and hardness, but also darkness and heaviness.

The singer of the song expresses that they feel cold almost every night, but not because of the temperature, hinting at emotional emptiness. They must escape and find their way out. The chorus, "Glittra som du aldrig gjort förut" (Shine like you've never done before), encourages the person to break free and to shine their light, which they may have suppressed for too long. The repetition of the line emphasizes the importance of this message.

The song is a powerful call for self-discovery and authenticity, reminding the listener that they have the power to change their life and to reveal their true selves.
