Fiction
lund Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feelings come and go, time to hit the road
Can't afford to watch this time move past
I'm never going back, moving forward
Lying to yourself, you don't really need me
Fiction in your head that you keep on believing
People come and go, everybody knows
Love is potent, let you go
Had to let you go, now I'm hoping
You get closure
Cause I'm feeling so much better now we're over

With you it ain't right
Too many missed calls and long nights
I heard your voicemail too many times
And I ain't wasting no more love on you
With you it ain't right
Too many missed calls and long nights
I heard your voicemail too many times

And I ain't wasting no more love on you

Open up my chest deep into my heart, do you see it?
A shard of glass, I can feel it slice
As I'm breathing, it cut my strings
Now my fucking heart isn't beating
And from my brain is where I'm bleeding, like
Deep inside my mind, scared of what I'll find
Our memories linger
Hurt confined, love the way you'd lie
With a smile, I'm saving me
There's no wrong or right

This is survival, put me down
You'd put me in the ground, no revival

No revival, no survival
Im 51:50, suicidal
There's no way out as far as I see
I'm going through hell
Can you find me?
No revival, no survival
Im 51:50, suicidal
There's no way out as far as I see
I'm going through hell
Can you find me?
I'm fucking insane
Do you know what the definition of insanity is?
No! Do you?
Yes! It's the inability to relate to another human being
It's the inability... to love!
Girl you left me down
Broken on the ground, I'm so sad
Cause your always gone, out there on the road
I'm not mad, I just wish that you would call me sometime
I just wish that we could fucking rewind, but
Girl you let me down
You been running round, I'm not dumb
Got me staring down the barrel of a loaded gun

You burned our bridge
And we can't turn back time
I got to go before I lose my mind

Feelings come and go, time to hit the road
Can't afford to watch this time move past
I'm never going back, moving forward
Lying to yourself, you don't really need me
Fiction in your head that you keep on believing
People come and go, everybody knows

Love is potent, let you go
Had to let you go, now I'm hoping
You get closure
Cause I'm feeling so much better now we're over

Going, going, gone
I think my soul is moving on
Hate me while I'm here
Then love while I'm lost
Do we fight to feel the pain
Or do we bleed to feel the same?
Why's the world so fucking cold?
Why do I often feel alone?
Going, going, gone
I think my soul is moving on
Hate me while I'm here
Then love while I'm lost
Do we fight to feel the pain
Or do we bleed to feel the same?




Why's the world so fucking cold?
Why do I often feel alone?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lund's song "Fiction" express disillusionment with a failed relationship, but also a determination to move forward. The singer declares that they are "never going back," acknowledging that the relationship was based on "fiction in [the other person's] head that [they] keep on believing." The pain of the breakup is clear in lines like "I'm going through hell" and "my fucking heart isn't beating," but there is also a sense of hope, as the singer expresses a desire for closure and notes that they are "feeling so much better now we're over."


The second half of the song continues this theme of pain and healing, with the singer lamenting their loneliness ("Why do I often feel alone?") and their sense of being trapped ("There's no way out as far as I see"). The repeated refrain of "Going, going, gone / I think my soul is moving on" suggests a process of healing and growth, even as the singer grapples with the difficulty and pain of letting go.


Overall, the lyrics of "Fiction" offer a raw and honest portrayal of the complexities of love and heartbreak, as well as the difficult but necessary task of moving on.

This reminds me of deep times in my area overseas.
My dad got extremely drunk over homemade wine and I knew it wasnt gonna end well because he just flips to depression mode, I was 14 at that time. 5'5 and kinda bulking
My dad was still working on trimming trees somewhere.
Huge pines about 20metres and it was evening.
He took the chainsaw and cut his thigh up using the chain.
By the time i got there he was bleeding and on the floor. I shook him and had to drag him home. He was about 110kg so it was a huge struggle but i got him onto a bed and started to try clean him up. He then pushed me away and started picking at it
I had lived really close to my grandparents so i ran over there and told them and i started crying over my grandma trying to knock sense into him. He ended up sobering up next day and wondering how he got the cut.
I had a talk with him and i ended up with him not believing that i helped him and thinking i left him there
To this day i hate him, he abuses me but i get used to it and i wonder what would happen if i just left him there and had him lead to his death. I just knew it was the right thing to do morally.
As the song name implies, this isnt fiction and this actually happened.
Im thinking about going into adoption as of recent times because my mother left me and my dad is who he is.
Thanks for taking your time reading, people like me don't have voices nowadays.
