Sweetness
as hell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
we worked for a week
this thing will never reach its completion
well not this year
no not this year
Another year another notable
wrong priority
dearly
We found out that our sweetness had become a problem
that our kindness had fucked upp our confidence
that our sweetness had become a problem
Who´s on the floor not being able to nod at an answer?
is it wrong falling down on the floor for the endurance of others?
where you ever tempted to follow me there?
you could always say no I can never
you were always the voyeur with mouth of a liar
And I found out that my sweetness had become a problem
that my kindness had fucked up my confidence
and my sweetness had become a problem
Have to say what you want without shaking your legs as you´re dancing
you have to try harder or else someone bad may be winnin'
I dig further down in order to find better words
I pick further down in my pockets to make a bad thing turn
And we found out that our sweetness had become a problem
that our kindness had fucked upp our confidence
that our sweetness had become a problem
We´ll found out (lalalalala)
problem (lalalalala)
confidence (lalalalala)

We´ll found out (lalalalala)

The lyrics of "Sweetness" by Hell's Song delve into the consequences of prioritizing friendship over business and the negative impact of being overly kind and sweet. The first verse reflects on a failed deal that was worked on for a week, emphasizing the disappointment of realizing that the project will not be completed as planned, at least not within the current year.
The lyrics then highlight the problem of putting friendship above business, suggesting that this choice has resulted in unfavorable consequences. The use of the phrase "took friendship over business" implies that the decision to prioritize personal relationships over professional commitments was misguided. As a result, the singers now find themselves paying dearly for this misplaced priority.
The chorus further explores the negative consequences of their "sweetness" and kindness. The sweetness and kindness they have shown towards others have backfired, causing their confidence to be undermined. This suggests that their selflessness and generosity have been taken advantage of, leading to a loss of confidence and perhaps feelings of being manipulated or deceived.
The second verse introduces a sense of introspection, questioning the actions and motives of someone else. It suggests that this person may have been hesitant to follow the singer or participate in certain situations, perhaps due to a lack of confidence or fear of the consequences. The mention of being a voyeur with the mouth of a liar hints at someone who observes from a distance and may not always tell the truth. This person's actions may have contributed to the problems faced by the singers.
The following verses emphasize the need to speak up and assert oneself without hesitation, even in the midst of uncertainty or fear. The lyrics suggest that in order to overcome the problems caused by their previous actions, they must find better words and dig deeper within themselves to make amends. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the theme of their sweetness and kindness becoming problematic, leading to a loss of confidence and the need for self-improvement.
Overall, "Sweetness" explores the consequences of prioritizing friendship over business, the negative impact of excessive sweetness and kindness, and the importance of asserting oneself and finding better solutions. It serves as a reflection on the cost of misplaced priorities and the need for self-awareness and growth.
