So Real
Tingsek Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something's burning up inside of me
But hey girl, you can make me feel better this time
I've been waiting now sometime for you to show
But my hopes for you to happen is at an all time low
I'm running out to seek some perspective
For the thing I have for you, baby
I love being close to you but I'm back to be all alone
I'm bringing ourselves back being all alone
Suddenly it feels so real but I'm back to be all alone
I think I have to go for the kill, loving the unknown
Let's be someone we both care about
Let's go somewhere and help each other out
To feel like there's no one else but you and me together
I love being close to you but I'm back to be all alone
I'm bringing ourselves back being all alone
Suddenly it feels so real but I'm back to be all alone
I think I have to go for the kill, loving the unknown
But I'm back to be all alone
Oh baby, I'm back to being all alone
The lyrics of Tingsek's "So Real" express a sense of confusion and yearning for something that may or may not be within reach.

They turn to a specific person for comfort and connection, expressing a desire to be close to them. However, this longing is tempered by a sense of disappointment and resignation. The singer's hopes for a relationship with this person are low, and they feel the need to seek perspective outside of the situation.
As the song progresses, the singer vacillates between these conflicting feelings. They express a desire to be alone, but also a desire to connect genuinely with another person. The idea of being with this particular person feels "so real," but at the same time, the singer acknowledges that they may need to let go of that hope in order to move forward. In the end, they return to a sense of isolation, accepting that they are "back to being all alone."
Overall, the lyrics of "So Real" capture the complexity of human relationships, particularly the way that our desires and emotions can sometimes be at odds with one another.
