Me va mшje yngre dе
Det e lenge siden nе
Me va sе smе dе

Alt det lшye me fant pе
Fekk aldri lys е gе

Onna ett tre bak en hekk
Sе fint at ingen sеg oss

Overall Meaning

The Mods' song Me To Går Alltid Aleina (We Always Walk Alone) reflects on the nostalgia of childhood innocence and the struggle to maintain a sense of self-identity among societal pressures. The lyrics begin by reminiscing about the days when the two protagonists were younger, free-spirited, and had each other's backs. They reminisce about the creative mischief they concocted together, which never saw the light of day as they were too scared of experiencing shame and ridicule from being seen together.


The song's central theme revolves around the fear of being ostracized by society for deviating from the norm. The line "Me va sе redde for det At de andre sko se At me to va samen" translates to "We were so afraid that others would see that we were together." The song's chorus emphasizes the idea that the two characters are most comfortable in their own company and would instead walk alone than be with someone else.


The song's essence has a universal appeal, with many people identifying with the fear of ostracization after deviating from societal expectations. It's a reflection on the societal pressures that people face, which can make people feel alone and misunderstood. The song's melancholic tune emphasizes the sentimentality of the lyrics, making it a powerful and emotional testament to the concept of maintaining a sense of self-identity.
