Lonely
Echoes of Solitude: Unveiling the Emotional Turmoil in Dooney West's 'Lonely'
Lyrics
Yeah, yeah
Expression of affirmation or agreement.
You know me I'm only this fucked up when I'm lonely yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Acknowledging personal flaws when experiencing loneliness.
Said, I'm rolling I'm zoning I love when you control me yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Describing a state of being under someone's influence and enjoying it while feeling lonely.
You know me I'm only this fucked up when I'm lonely yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiteration of being messed up only in the context of loneliness.
Said, I'm rolling I'm zoning I love when you control me, me
Expressing enjoyment of being controlled while lonely.
Talk a lot but I know that shit's a lie
Admitting to talking a lot but acknowledging it as dishonest.
Talk a lot but ain't nothing getting by
Emphasizing that despite talking a lot, nothing is getting through.
I really thought I knew you, you, you yeah aye
Expressing disappointment in thinking one knew someone well.
Talk a lot but I know that shit's a lie
Reiterating the dishonesty in excessive talking.
Talk a lot but ain't nothing getting by
Highlighting that despite talking, understanding is elusive.
I really thought I knew you, you, you yeah aye
Revisiting the disappointment in realizing a lack of true knowledge about someone.
I knew you, I knew you yeah aye
Repetition emphasizing the speaker's prior knowledge of the person.
I knew you, I knew you yeah aye
Further emphasizing prior understanding of the individual.
I knew you, I knew you, you, you, you
Continued emphasis on the speaker's previous knowledge, possibly contrasting with the current situation.
You know me I'm only this fucked up when I'm lonely yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiterating the connection between personal turmoil and loneliness.
Said, I'm rolling I'm zoning I love when you control me yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Expressing pleasure in being controlled while feeling lonely.
You know me I'm only this fucked up when I'm lonely yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiteration of the link between personal struggles and loneliness.
Said, I'm rolling I'm zoning I love when you control me, me
Reaffirming the enjoyment of being influenced during loneliness.
I knew you I knew you
Repetition of the prior claim of understanding someone.
Talk a lot but I know that shit's a lie
Reiteration of talking a lot with recognition of falsehood.
I knew you I knew you
Restating the speaker's previous belief in knowing someone well.
Talk a lot but ain't nothing getting by
Emphasizing the difficulty of communication despite excessive talking.
You you you
Directly addressing the person in question.
I really thought I knew you, you, you yeah aye
Reaffirming the disappointment in failing to truly know the person.
I knew you I knew you
Repetition of the speaker's previous claim of understanding the individual.
Talk a lot but I know that shit's a lie
Reiterating the theme of dishonesty in excessive talking.
I knew you I knew you
Further emphasizing the speaker's prior knowledge of the person.
Talk a lot but ain't nothing getting by
Highlighting the continued challenge of genuine communication despite talking.
You you you
Directly addressing the person again, possibly expressing frustration.
I really thought I knew you, you, you yeah aye
Reiteration of the disappointment in thinking one knew the person well.
