Blues
Still Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you see me cryin'?
Can you hear me dyin'?
I wanna talk to you, listen too
Do you know me like I know you?
Do you love me like I love you?
Is it all the same? Yeah

We'll be old friends, tryin'
Til' the road ends, we'll be flyin'
Listen to me, sing to you
I got the music, I need the space
I'd like to use it to get out of this place
'Cause it's all the same, yeah

I got the miserables, help me
Don't seem sensible, tell me
I wanna talk to you, listen too
Too many times I've swallowed my words




Is it a crime to want to be heard?
Or is is it all the same? Yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Still's song Blues in 2-3 express the singer's feeling of desperation and the need for someone to listen to him. The lyrics convey a sense of loneliness as the singer asks the listener whether they can see and hear him crying and dying. He is looking for someone to talk to and someone who will listen to him.


The lyrics, "Do you know me like I know you? Do you love me like I love you?" suggest that the singer is questioning the depth of the listener's feelings towards him. He is seeking reassurance that the listener cares for him as much as he cares for them. The line "Is it all the same? Yeah" is a repetition of the idea that everything is the same, suggesting that the singer feels like nothing is changing or improving.


The song continues with the singer's desire for a friend who will accompany him on his journey in life, someone who will always be there for him even when the road ends. He talks about how he has the music to express himself, but he needs the space to do so. He is trapped and needs to escape from where he is at the moment.


The last verse portrays the singer's plea for someone to understand him. He is miserable and finds solace in the thought that someone is listening to him. He questions whether it is a crime to want to be heard, implying that in his current situation, his voice is not heard.


Overall, Blues in 2-3 is a song about longing for someone to listen, understand, and be there for the singer. It is a song of sadness and hope, portraying the human condition of wanting to be understood and loved.

Used to be so easy to give my heart away
But I found out the hard way
There's a price you have to pay
I found out that love was no friend of mine
I should have known time after time

So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

Used to be so easy to fall in love again
But I found out the hard way
It's a road that leads to pain
I found that love was more than just a game
You're playin' to win, but you lose just the same

So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

So many years since I've seen your face
Here in my heart, there's an empty space
Where you used to be

So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

Though the days come and go
There is one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you
