The Pills Won't Help You Know
The Chemical Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And go up the field away
And join all the other living souls
But you never came
Robbed of your fortune
You get disappointments in life
You're probably poisoning your body
In a moment of fear
You dig in your heels
The pills won't help you now
Once you're crying
Thought we were going
Go up the field away
Join all the other living souls
But you never came
Robbed of your fortune
You get disappointments in life
You're probably poisoning your body
I hope you're alright
In a moment of fear
You dig in your heels
The pills won't help you now
Once you cry
Robbed of your fortune
You get disappointments in life
You're probably poisoning your body
I hope you're alright
In a moment of fear
You dig in your heels
The pills won't help you now
Once you cry
In a moment of fear
You dig in your heels
The pills won't help you now
Once you cry
The lyrics to The Chemical Brothers’ song “The Pills Won’t Help You Now” explores feelings of disappointment and isolation. The first verse describes a plan to escape and join other living beings, but it’s clear that the singer’s companion never came, leaving them feeling robbed and alone. The chorus warns against relying on drugs as a solution to life’s problems, telling the listener that “the pills won’t help [them] now” once they start to cry in fear. The repetition of the second verse serves as a reminder that despite the attempt to escape, the disappointment and potential self-harm remain.
The song’s message is poignant and relevant, urging listeners to confront problems head-on and resist the temptation to escape reality through drug use. The lyrics also suggest a longing for connection and feeling seen that likely resonates with many people. The Chemical Brothers create a haunting atmosphere with their instrumentals and use of repetition, emphasizing the importance of the song’s theme.
Line by Line Meaning
Thought we were going
We had plans to leave and start fresh
And go up the field away
We were going away from everything
And join all the other living souls
We wanted to connect with others and be part of a community
But you never came
But you didn't follow through and abandoned our plans
Robbed of your fortune
You lost what you had most valuable in life
You get disappointments in life
You've experienced setbacks and your life hasn't gone as planned
You're probably poisoning your body
Your unhealthy habits may be harming you
I hope you're alright
I hope you're doing well despite everything
In a moment of fear
When you're scared
You dig in your heels
You become stubborn and refuse to move forward
The pills won't help you now
Taking drugs won't solve your problems
Once you cry
Once you start to show emotion
In a moment of fear
When you're scared
You dig in your heels
You become stubborn and refuse to move forward
The pills won't help you now
Taking drugs won't solve your problems
Once you cry
Once you start to show emotion
Robbed of your fortune
You lost what you had most valuable in life
You get disappointments in life
You've experienced setbacks and your life hasn't gone as planned
You're probably poisoning your body
Your unhealthy habits may be harming you
I hope you're alright
I hope you're doing well despite everything
