This is another original song by Dodie Clark upload on her YouTube channel … Read Full Bio ↴This is another original song by Dodie Clark upload on her YouTube channel where she is known as ‘doddleoddle’. Like many other tracks of hers, she hints at an abusive ex-boyfriend. However, this song is mainly about how during her time with them, they convinced her that “all of her friends were bad”. Soon, she had lost them all and was struggling to get out of the relationship. Then she met someone and was finally released, finding new friends along the way. Anyway, the message is basically her telling herself that she will not lose anymore friends, implicit in the verse “I won’t take no for an answer”.

Sick Of Losing Soulmates
dodie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

What a strange being you are, God knows where I would be
If you hadn't found me, sitting all alone in the dark
A dumb screenshot of youth
Watch how a cold broken teen
Will desperately lean on a superglued human of proof

What the hell would I be, without you (what the hell would I be)
Brave face talk so lightly, hide the truth (hide the truth)

'Cause I'm sick of losing soulmates, so where do we begin
I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me
So how do we win?
Yeah, I'm sick of losing soulmates, won't be alone again
I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me
So how do we win?

We will grow old as friends,
I've promised that before so what's one more
In our grey-haired circle, waiting for the end?
Time and hearts will wear us thin
So which path will you take, 'cause we both know a break
Does exactly what it says on the tin

What the hell would I be, without you
Brave face talk so lightly, hide the truth

'Cause I'm sick of losing soulmates, so where do we begin
I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me
So how do we win?
Yeah, I'm sick of losing soulmates, won't be alone again
I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me
So how do we win?

I won't take no for an answer (I won't take no for an answer)
I won't take no for an answer (I won't take no for an answer)
I won't take no (I won't take no), no
I won't take no (I won't take no)

'Cause I'm sick of losing soulmates, so where do we begin
I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me
So how do we win?
Yeah, I'm sick of losing soulmates, won't be alone again

I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me
So how do we win?

Overall Meaning

The song “Sick Of Losing Soulmates” by British singer-songwriter dodie is a reflection on the difficulty of finding lasting connections in an ever-changing world. The lyrics describe the feeling of being lost and alone, and the desperate desire for a human connection that will last a lifetime. The opening lines, “What a strange being you are, God knows where I would be/ If you hadn't found me, sitting all alone in the dark,” suggest that the singer has found a kindred spirit in the person they are addressing. This person, who might otherwise have been a stranger, represents a lifeline in a sea of confusion and doubt.

The chorus of the song repeats the statement “I'm sick of losing soulmates, so where do we begin?/I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me/So how do we win?” This repetition emphasizes the sense of desperation and longing for a deeper emotional connection. The lines “We will grow old as friends,/I've promised that before so what's one more/In our grey-haired circle, waiting for the end?” suggest a commitment to a lifelong friendship, despite the inevitability of aging and death. The final lines, “I won't take no for an answer,” further emphasize the singer's determination to hold on to this connection, even in the face of adversity.

Overall, “Sick Of Losing Soulmates” is a poignant depiction of the human desire for genuine connection and the pain of losing those connections. It explores the complexities of relationships and the struggle to find a soulmate, while also acknowledging the impermanence of life.

Line by Line Meaning

What a strange being you are, God knows where I would be If you hadn't found me, sitting all alone in the dark
You are a unique person and I don't know what my life would be like without you. When you found me in the dark, it was a turning point in my life.

A dumb screenshot of youth Watch how a cold broken teen Will desperately lean on a superglued human of proof
When we were young and foolish, I relied on you to hold me together. I was lost and broken, but you were my stability.

What the hell would I be, without you (what the hell would I be) Brave face talk so lightly, hide the truth (hide the truth)
I cannot imagine my life without you. I try to put on a brave face and act like everything's okay, but in reality, I am hiding my true feelings.

'Cause I'm sick of losing soulmates, so where do we begin I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me So how do we win? Yeah, I'm sick of losing soulmates, won't be alone again I can finally see, you're as fucked up as me So how do we win?
I am tired of losing people close to me, so where do we start to fix our relationship? I realize now that you are just as flawed as I am, so how can we turn things around? I don't want to lose you and feel alone anymore.

We will grow old as friends, I've promised that before so what's one more In our grey-haired circle, waiting for the end? Time and hearts will wear us thin So which path will you take, 'cause we both know a break Does exactly what it says on the tin
We have promised to be friends until the end, and we will continue to add more people to our inner circle as we age. Time and life experiences will take a toll on us, so which direction will you choose to go? We both know that a breakup would cause us more harm than good.

I won't take no for an answer (I won't take no for an answer) I won't take no for an answer (I won't take no for an answer) I won't take no (I won't take no), no I won't take no (I won't take no)
I won't accept a rejection or a 'no' from you. I want to fix our relationship and I won't give up easily.

Well … clears throat …
She is my gf now
I asked her out two days after I made this comment because my best friend convinced me that I have nothing to lose (which was a lie but I am so glad she did that)

We went on multiple dates and now we are a couple

She is so sweet and the kind of girl you can go on big adventures with

I really think we are both in love and this is the healthiest, best relationship I have ever been in

This song inspired a villanelle poem, I thought I would share it
Strangers.

I am sick of meeting strangers,
hoping once again
for love to begin.

They catch my eye,
and steal my breath.
I am sick-- of meeting strangers.

For it feels only when friendships are willing to die,
and meet an untimely death
is when our love begins.

So I'd rather have a friend
to love until our eventual end, because
I am sick of meeting strangers.

Who try to butt in,
who lie, saying it is time
for love to begin.

So when I turn my eye,
or stifle my laugh, turning it into a sigh,
it is only because- I am sick of meeting strangers,
waiting for love to never begin.

Sick of losing soulmates
From a young age I've run and people have left
I've gotten bored in the longevity of love
Ppl have been tired of my existence

Reality begins at the edge of tears that never reach the ground
Substance relies in the fulfilment of the one that doesn't exist
Death lies in the bed you struggle to sleep in
Love runs towards you as you sink into the grassy sand beneath your soul

Dear L,

I've only known you since august, but everything feels easier with you. I don't even know if I have a crush on you, but you make me feel better about everything. I come to you when I feel like going back into old habits, and you tell me the right things. You know how to handle all my crazy shit, something M never gave much of an effort at. you've helped me come out to so many people in my life, and you've stood by me while I've questioned my sexuality again and again. you've told me that everything's gonna be alright. you told me that you'd always be there for me no matter what. You're beautiful in such a subtle way, with your huge smile and soft brown eyes. you stand up for what you believe in, something you've inspired me to do more often. You care so much about people, and sometimes I think you forget to take care of yourself first. I wish i could just run up to you and tell you that you're enough, and that you always have been and will be. I love how we made up inside jokes about running away to Canada together, getting married and adopting kids. Living in a cottage playing Girls Like Girls and i met sarah in the bathroom every night, and watching the sunrise in the morning. I know it's just a joke we have, but I sometimes wish it was real, and I think sometimes you do too. We're young though, and I know that time and hearts will wear us thin, so I can't hope for that much. In a few months you're going to a new school, in a new country. You'll probably meet a new girl, and give her a nickname just like you gave me, you'll tell her about how you want to escape reality and hide with her forever. You'll defend her and call her beautiful, not me. Like I said, i'm not even sure I have a crush on you, so why did it hurt so much when you told me you were leaving? I guess we really will grow old as friends, so know that I'm here for you, no matter what you need, i'll be here. and although picturing our futures being separate hurts, its probably what life has in store for us. if there's ever a chance you'd wanna be with me, and i know that sounded weird, but i'll say yes.

update: yeah im pretty sure i like L.
update again: ha we're dating

Hey, you are doing so well.
I'm so proud of you.
Please don't let others get in the way of your health, dreams and ideals. It's hard, but in the end it will be worth it.
You may feel alone, but this will pass. It will. I promise. Life takes your fears and gives them to you. Though it might be scary, it's ok. These fears help us grow, learn, observe, understand and empathize. Without battling them life would be dull, bland and misunderstood.
There's so many wonders in life, I hope you find them. You don't have much time, so take it. Your fears won't keep you safe. They only build walls, and hinder positive growth.
If you are trying to grow and be a better person, I believe in you. Another person believes in you, that person, the other person, the person you talked to for a second. They are proud and you are capable of so much positive growth, so much love, kindness and empathy. Your feelings are valid. They are so valid.
I hope you find a safe space.
If you'd like, vent here. I'll check every so often and I know, I know, there will be others to help when things get tough. You are not alone.
I cherish your existence, I see your progress and I'm so proud of you.

My dearest, sweetest, fiercest Kimiko.

Not a day goes by where I cant help but miss your infectous laughter. Your smile that lit up a room. And the warmth in your eyes that could not compare.

To all those who experience the heart wrenching joy of love...
Enjoy it. Enjoy every little moment and treasure it forever.
Live it as if it were your last.

Also. Know that you ARE loved and treasured by someone. That others WILL miss you if you were gone.
That their lives will be ruined if you decide to leave.

Dear soulmate, when I heard Dodie’s first version of this song many years ago, you were who I thought of straight away, and still think of now.
I remember being in love with the idea of you. I remember us realising that our relationship was one of friendship - and damn if it wasn’t one of the best.
I am forever grateful to you for being my anchor when I was at my lowest. We got each other through the worst.
I am sorry we don’t talk every night like we did in those years.
I still love you. I miss you. And I am so grateful.

This was my gay awakening when I was 12 years old and wasn't rlly aware of sexualities bc christian household and all. my sister watched this with me and I was so confused about the story bc I didn't get their relationship but I liked how intimate their "friendship" looked. about a year later I was watching "Girls like girls" by Hayley Kiyoko several times a week and two years ago I officially came out. after 16 years of confusion and denial. I rlly like that this song was the first spark of questioning what I've been told love should be. im still loving this song. thank you Dodie <3

I first heard this song September 8th, 2018. I had just had my heart broken by a guy I thought was better than he was, and my friend who broke my heart two years before had just gotten off the phone with me. My Spotify was on shuffle, and my laptop was on a page of the book I was writing. The guitar of the beginning of this song was playing, and the song that fit my emotional state had been found. I knew, in that moment that I wasn’t alone and I could get past this block. Thank you, Dodie. Without this song, I wouldn’t be where I was today. I’m almost done with that book, and I can’t wait to get it published.

This song really resonates with me. I used to listen to this song constantly in middle school, which I’m sure was a terrible time for everyone but it was just something that made me feel better and gave me something to relate to, or think I relate to. Years later It still takes me back and offers a level of comfort to me. Thank you dodie

My girlfriend and I have been together almost two years. In 3 weeks we're moving in together. This has always kinda been like "our song". We've had a lot of ups and downs. Her family is Mormon and mine not the most accepting. I have had relationships that broke off in the past because of our family's beliefs. We truly did have to fight and there was a point in time we almost didn't make it. But we're still going strong and I love her more than anything. In fact, we had our very first kiss in 2018 to this song. We are currently LDR (not for much longer though!!!) and whenever the song plays on my Spotify, I just cry. It represents so much to me. ♥️♥️♥️

With night comes day and with rain follows the sun. You are enough and will always be enough. There may be no correct answers and no solid ground to walk on but you are always you. Never forget the love in your heart, the gift of your soul and the magic of your brain. You will always matter. No force of nature can falter your birthright strength.

I sent the lyric video to my best friend. And she was like this is it, this is our song. I don’t think you have to see a song as a love song or a song about friends in general.

I say this is mine and her song because there have been so many times when I’ve lost faith in people or lost people and she has always been there for me and me for her. So I think it’s how you think something in.

I've never been interested in Dodie's music, there's no certain reason why, but I've recently found this song and I can say that I'm very grateful for it. I gained a huge respect for Dodie for what she did here. I even think it's... one of the very bests songs from this music genre as well. This song and its composition is beautiful. And when I see how many people resonate with this feeling and the theme... Me too.

If I hadn't already started crying while listening to the song I would have while reading the comments... It truly makes me realise that I'm not alone, a lot of people are lost and hurt. And on one hand this makes me even sader, but on the other hand it is kind of comforting to know that we all go trough the same stuff. So maybe we can go through it all together?

dear e,

i’ve had many girl crushes in the past, dated a few girls, found out i’m more than just bisexual. but you’re the girl who’s taught me what true happiness feels like. what seeing someone and smiling for no reason feels like. you’ve taught me how to love myself just the tiniest bit, and i thank you for that. but you’ve also taught me that waiting can be worth it sometime.
i cant wait to take you on the date on valentine’s day, to that diner. i’m not sure what’ll happen afterwards, but you’ll always be my biggest crush. words can’t explain how much i’m in the feels for you. you’ve taken up most of the mind, i might have to buy more memory.
you won’t see this, but thank you for dealing with my craziness whenever we hang out. thank you for being by my side when i was bawling my eyes out, though you were hurting too. thank you for walking 10 miles with me in 2 days. thank you for being such an amazing human being.
i wish you could see yourself through my eyes. you don’t need makeup to look beautiful. you look beautiful with bed head, so don’t worry about how your hair looks, you doof.
don’t worry about anything. because you’re perfect the way you are.

@kkbaby03

I remember, two years ago, when I discovered this song, I‘ve recently switched schools and had a very tough time at my new school. I remember constantly having this song stuck in my head, missing my old friends and that awful feeling in my stomach in the morning when I knew I had to go back to school. I hated it so much. And now, two years later, listening to the same song again, I can say that I am so, so grateful that I stayed in that school because I‘ve met the most wonderful, amazing people I want to spend the rest of my life with. I am so happy, that I can look back at these awful memories attached to this song knowing that it got so, so much better.

Even if you never see this, which you won't, thank you. thank you for being there for me even though I've never seen you in person. thank you for making me feel happy and sad and somehow both at once.Thank you thank you thank you.
Love, me.

I know you probably won't see me in the same light but your one of the only people that I chose to stay alive for. I do know were to "young" or whatever to understand these feelings but I do believe that you should be the person I spend the rest of my life with. Even if you dont see me like that I am still appreciative of how your there to cheer me up, hopefully one day I can tell you how wonderful you make me feel. But for now you'll just stay my favorite person to have gym with and to make me smile when I feel there is nothing left to live for.

@futurehistory2110

This kind of captures the essence of life and time. There's so many people who I've come to know and not know any more (or less so). So many groups/places I've joined and moved on, many friends I've made and become distant from, while making new friends. There's so much emotion in that looking back. In some ways, it's the jumbled up narrative of life that's hard to comprehend. It's not a smooth narrative like a movie, it's a collection of stories.

Dear girl who stood in front of me during the Dodie concert.
Don't worry about me. I know you were concerned when I cried nor only during Sick of losing Soulmates, but during If I'm being honest, Secret for the Mad and 6/10.
The thing is, it can be good to cry, especially when you know that you are nowhere near selflove, but in this very moment, you are at a Dodie concert and hundreds of voices are singing that it'll all make sense again.
Somehow this allowed me to believe it.

Wow I'm going through a breakup with my first ever girlfriend and this song just hits differently now. We've been together for 1.5 year and I trully felt like she was my soulmate, well I still feel it. It's only been like 4? days and I don't know what to do really. It's my first heartbreak and I don't know how to act. We were talking about being friends and I want it really bad but I'm afraid it's not possible until I move on and what if it's going to be too late for that then? Idk I'm lost but these songs are actually making it easier somehow. I feel like I can relate to something like this for the first time and I look at it as if it's a new experience and I'm going to learn from this a lot
Idk why I'm writing this here i guess I needed to let it out. I still love her but I want to heal as quickly as possible

@tommie424

a lil bit late to this comment as it was posted a week ago and i don't know what has happened since then, but i really hope you manage to move on and find yourself. losing a long-term relationship so abruptly is hard and i'm so proud of you for fighting through it. good things always come out of a bad situation, there's light at the end of the tunnel and you won't feel this pain forever!! keep your head held high queen 👑💞
