Alone
The Blizzard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Somebody said: "It's not so bad."

All I can hear is a cry of pain

Somebody said: "It will be OK."

But I don't believe it anymore
Must get down and save me

Cannot wait until a new day comes

Dark won't last forever

Soon the moon will shine on me

Alone in a park, alone near the sea

Want to get out, yet I'm not free

Watching the stars feeling Infinite

I wish I could never die.

Must get down and save me

Cannot wait until a new day comes

Dark won't last forever

Soon the moon will shine on me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Blizzard's song Alone speak to the sadness and isolation one can feel even in the midst of others' attempts at comfort. The first verse begins with a dismissive comment, "It's not so bad," which is met with an emotional response of pain that drowns out any further words. The second verse echoes this sentiment, with someone saying that things will be okay, but the singer admitting that they no longer believe it. The chorus picks up on the theme of needing to save oneself, rather than waiting for things to improve on their own. The singer wants to break free from the loneliness and confinement they feel, yearning for the infinite possibilities of the stars and wishing for immortality.


The song's tone is somber and introspective, with a deliberate pace that allows the lyrics to be heard and felt. The guitar solos add to the melancholic mood, with each playing off of the other to create a complex and layered sound. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the sense of urgency and the need to take action in order to change one's circumstances. Overall, Alone is a powerful ballad that speaks to the heart of the human experience.
