You're Not Alone
The Blackout/The Blackout Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The bitter wind has blown
Your heart into a stone,
You just need to say.
On and on and on and on,
Yeah you just need to say.
On and on and on and on,
You know you're not alone,
You know you're not alone.
You saved me,
You saved me.
You're walking on your own,
And you don't really know where,
Where you need to go,
But you just need to say.
On and on and on and on
Yeah you just need to say.
On and on and on and on,
Yeah.
You know you're not alone,
You know you're not alone.
You saved me,
You saved me.
You know you're not alone,
You know you're not alone.
You saved me,
You saved me.
On and on and on, you're all I've needed.
Know you know you know it's all we've got.
Know I'll be there just to stop the bleeding,
I know you'll be there waiting for the drop.
Know you're not alone.
You know you're not alone.
You saved me,
You saved me.
You know you're not alone,
You know you're not alone.
You saved me,
You saved me.
In The Blackout's song "You're Not Alone," the lyrics depict a person feeling lost and alone in a cold city, with their heart turned to stone by the bitter wind. The repeated phrase "On and on and on and on, yeah you just need to say" suggests that this person is hesitant to open up or ask for help, but the chorus reassures them that they are not alone and have someone who has been saved by their presence.
The line "You're walking on your own, and you don't really know where, where you need to go, but you just need to say" highlights the feeling of aimlessness and confusion that can come with feeling alone. However, the idea that they "just need to say" implies that communication and vulnerability are key to feeling less alone and finding direction.
