Isolation
TRAILER TRASH - BAND Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
About this Isolation
Is there no one in this town
My heart is breaking
With every step I've taken
Since this lockdown came around
Theirs is no music making
Nobody seems around
There ain't no faking
About this Godforsaken
Poor excuse for a town
It's a third world I've fallen into
Since this virus it came our way
It crossed the borderline
And took us back time
To our best forgotten days
Much contemplation
On my sad situation
No toilet roll on the shelf
No copulation
There's only masturbation
You gotta do all it all by yourself
No celebration
There's only consternation
All the pubs have been shut down
I'm not mistaken
About this isolation
I gotta live in this ghost town
It's a third world I've fallen into
Since this virus it came our way
It crossed the borderline
And took us back time
To our best forgotten days
The lyrics to "Isolation" by TRAILER TRASH - BAND reflect the feelings of loneliness, despair, and frustration that arise during periods of isolation, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The song portrays a sense of desolation in a town where there seems to be no one around, no joy or activities taking place. The singer's heart is breaking with every step they take, emphasizing the emotional toll of being confined and disconnected from the world.
The lyrics further convey a feeling of regression and loss, comparing the current situation to living in a third world country. The pandemic has taken society back in time, reminding them of forgotten hardships and struggles. The mention of the border suggests that the virus disregards boundaries and affects people globally, regardless of location or social status.
The song also touches upon the scarcity and panic-buying mentality that emerged during the pandemic. The absence of toilet paper on store shelves symbolizes the disruptions to everyday life and the challenges faced by individuals in obtaining basic necessities. Additionally, the lack of social interaction and human connection is highlighted through the reference to masturbation, suggesting that people are left with no choice but to fulfill their needs on their own.
Overall, "Isolation" captures the emotional and physical impacts of being isolated, showcasing the singer's longing for the return of normalcy and the sense of belonging that comes with it.
