Uh Oh! Explosion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Distorted and broken but everybody says that "I can't believe whats gone wrong"
You tell me the truth but it's nothing but lies and you tell me what should I do
My whole life heard you say what a loss
Heard you tell me I could have been great
But I never wanted what you wanted from me
You ask me questions I don't know what to say
Think about the problems that are clouding my day
I think what should I say
I think what is my next step
But I don't know where to go
My whole life heard you say what a loss
Heard you tell me I could have been great
But I never wanted what you wanted from me
So just do me a favor and please let me be
(Please let me be)
(Please let me be)
My whole life heard you say what a loss
Heard you tell me I could have been great
But I never wanted what you wanted from me
So just do me a favor and please let me be
Please let me be
Please let me be
Oh please oh please oh please
Let me be, let me be, let me be
In Uh Oh! Explosion's song "Let me Be," the singer's voice is distorted as they sing about feeling broken and lost. The people around them are constantly expressing disappointment and disbelief at the current state of things, but the singer realizes that those people don't have the best intentions for them. The lyrics convey the struggles of not knowing what to say, how to act or what the future holds. The singer seems desperate to break free from the expectations and the pressure from their surroundings, expressing their inner wish to be left alone and to just be.
The phrase "let me be" is repeated throughout the song, which intensifies the emotion behind it. The song seems to be about breaking from the mold and carving your own path instead of following foregone pathways. It's a relatable message about being true to yourself and not letting others dictate your life, even when their intentions are good.
