Whip the Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Follow the sirens, the chain of the actions
Didn't know what to look out for
Many year, feelings we carried
Why did always you set the score?

You have put your fingerprints on me
Sirens ringing, calling destiny
I heard sirens, I heard sirens
I heard sirens, I heard sirens

Didn't come easy, the truths they were hidden
Cast for all rewards that you worked for
Drawn to the beacon, X marks destination
Entered before the sirens stopped

You have put your fingerprints on me
Sirens ringing, calling destiny
I heard sirens, I heard sirens
I heard sirens, I heard sirens

You know the only truth I know
You know the only truth I know
You know the only truth I know
Is in the palm of my hands

I heard sirens, I heard sirens
I heard sirens, I heard sirens
I heard sirens, I heard sirens
Sounds of love, sounds of love

You know the only truth I know
You know the only truth I know
You know the only truth I know
Is in the palm of my hands

You know the only truth I know
You know the only truth I know




You know the only truth I know
Is in the palm of my hands

Overall Meaning

In the song "Sirens" by Whip, the lyrics revolve around the idea of following the seductive and dangerous call of the sirens. There is a sense of confusion and uncertainty as the singer admits that they didn't know what to look out for, but still followed the chain of actions that led them to this point. The emotions and feelings of the past are carried with them as they question why their partner always set the score. The use of the word "fingerprint" may suggest a sense of ownership or control in the relationship.


The repetition of the phrase "I heard sirens" creates a sense of urgency and danger. The singer seems to be aware of the dangers of following the sirens, but is still drawn to the destination marked by X. The line "Drawn to the beacon" implies a sense of being lost and seeking direction, but also implies a level of risk-taking behavior.


The last stanza could be interpreted in different ways, but it seems to suggest that the truth is in the hands of the singer. It could be a statement of empowerment, indicating that they now have control over their own destiny. Alternatively, it could be seen as an acknowledgement of the responsibility they hold for their actions and the consequences that follow. Either way, the sirens continue to sound in the background, underscoring the idea of being trapped in a dangerous cycle.
