Maybe I'm Wrong
The Forces of Evil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La La La,
La La La,
La La La La La La La La La,

La La La,
La La La,
La La La La La La La La La,
Well every time that I think I'm going to do it
I never make it through it,
And every time that I hold my head up high
Somebody punches me right in the eye,
You know its hard to see,
But the future never looks that good to me,
I know I shouldn't talk this way

Maybe, its alright and I'm the one that's wrong
Maybe, if I die this sadness will be gone

There have been times when, I could o-most say
Things were going my way,
But as I felt my confidence rise, it will crumble right before my eyes
I could never belive in me,
cause I can never make things how there suppose to be,
I'm gonna blow it every time

Maybe, its alright and I'm the one that's wrong
Maybe, if I die this sadness will be gone

Its in my head (its in my head),
That I'm better off dead





Maybe, its alright and I'm the one that's wrong
Maybe, if I die this sadness will be gone

Overall Meaning

The singer even goes as far as to say that he might be better off dead because the sadness will be gone.


The repetition of the "La La La" throughout the song creates a sense of ambiguity and uncertainty, reflecting the singer's lack of confidence and questioning himself. The lyrics and the tone of the song suggest that the singer is trapped in his own mind, and is unable to break free from this cycle of self-doubt and negativity.
