False Alarm
Navigating Love's Deceptive Signals: False Alarm by Jorge da Rocha
Lyrics
I’m burning inside in so many many ways
The speaker expresses intense internal turmoil in various ways.
For too many days I’m afraid
The speaker has been fearful for an extended period.
She’s burning inside, that’s always what she says
The person being referred to is also experiencing internal conflict.
And she will as long as he stays
As long as the mentioned person stays, the internal struggle continues.
No signs for alarm the silly man screams
The person in distress is not showing obvious signs, and someone dismisses the seriousness.
While burying all of her dreams
Despite the dismissive attitude, the person is burying their dreams.
One day both will be face to face
A prediction that eventually, both individuals will confront each other.
And that’s all he will say:
During the confrontation, the person will only say the following.
False, false alarm, false, false alarm
Repetition of the phrase "False alarm" implies a repeated denial of a real problem.
False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
The repetition intensifies the insistence on the situation being a false alarm.
False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
-I’m sorry for doing all this wrong
The speaker apologizes for perceived wrongs but attributes them to external forces, possibly fate or higher powers.
But blame it on the gods
-I’m sorry for doing all this wrong
-But blame it on the gods
-I’m sorry for doing all this wrong
-But blame it on the gods
-I’m sorry for doing all this wrong
-But blame it on the gods
-Please say the gods to blame
The speaker pleads with the gods, emphasizing their desire for divine acknowledgment of blame.
Please say the gods
-Please say the gods to blame
-Please say oh god
-Please say the gods to blame
-Please say oh god
-I’m sorry for doing all this wrong
Reiteration of the apology and the plea to attribute blame to the gods.
But blame it, blame it on the gods
-False, false alarm, false, false alarm
Final repetition of "False alarm," underscoring the theme of denial and avoidance.
False, false alarm, false, false alarm
