United Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
Says leave it alone
Don't want to hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home
I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will sing no more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home
The lyrics of United's song Suicide are fairly cryptic and can be interpreted in different ways. However, the central theme of the song appears to be rebellion and the struggle against a faceless adversary. The singer is defiant and ready to fight against anything that tries to hold him back. He's not afraid of anything, not even a powerful force like a seven nation army. He's prepared to take on all comers and won't stop until he's victorious. However, the obstacles seem to be many, and the singer is being pursued by someone who is keen to bring him down. The lyrics suggest that the singer is trying to get away from something by running to Wichita, where he can get away from it all forevermore.
The singer is clearly troubled by what is happening to him. He is talking to himself at night, struggling to find a solution. He is plagued by negative thoughts and is trying to find a way out of his situation. The singer's inner turmoil is causing him to bleed profusely, mentally and physically. He is losing his voice, and the stains coming from his blood tell him to go back home. This could be interpreted as a sign that he has gone too far down the path of rebellion and needs to stop before he harms himself.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm gonna fight 'em all
I'm prepared to face any challenge that comes my way
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
I'm determined to overcome any obstacle, no matter how big
They're gonna rip it off
Others want to steal or take credit for what I have accomplished
Taking their time right behind my back
The people who want to take what I've done are waiting for their chance to pounce
And I'm talking to myself at night
I am alone with my thoughts, and I can't help but think about my struggles
Because I can't forget
I can't get past the hardships that I have faced
Back and forth through my mind
My thoughts are constantly racing and I can't find peace
Behind a cigarette
The only thing that seems to calm me down and give me a break from my thoughts is smoking
And the message coming from my eyes
My body language shows that I want to be left alone
Says leave it alone
I don't want to talk about my struggles with anyone else
Don't want to hear about it
I am tired of people asking me about my problems
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone has their own struggles and challenges
Everyone knows about it
I am not alone in dealing with difficulties
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
Everyone, regardless of their status, has faced challenges in their life
And if I catch it coming back my way
If someone tries to take my achievements or credit again
I'm gonna serve it to you
I will fight back and not let anyone take what's rightfully mine
And that ain't what you want to hear
Others don't want to hear that I will fight back and protect what's mine
But that's what I'll do
Regardless of what anyone else wants, I will fight back
And the feeling coming from my bones
I have a deep, instinctual drive to protect what's mine
Says find a home
I need to find somewhere I belong and where I feel safe
I'm going to Wichita
I'm leaving my current situation and starting over
Far from this opera for evermore
I'm leaving behind the drama and chaos of my current life
I'm gonna work the straw
I'm going to work hard and put in the effort to rebuild my life
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
I will put in so much effort that I will be physically exhausted
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
I am hurting emotionally and spiritually, and it feels like I am bleeding
Right before the lord
I am at a point of desperation and turning to a higher power for help
All the words are gonna bleed from me
I am going to pour out all of my emotions and struggles
And I will sing no more
I am done trying to hide my pain and will let it all out
And the stains coming from my blood
My struggles have become a part of me and are staining me from the inside out
Tell me go back home
My current situation is not where I belong, and I need to find a new sense of home and belonging
