You're Not Alone Lyrics
basically what the song is saying that, whatever youre goin thru, finding yourself, overcoming suicidal thoughts, lookin for someone, w.e, its been done before and there are lots of other people who are goin or went thru the same thing. what youre goin thru is not impossible and can be done.
My thoughts exactly. Awesome song.
My thoughts exactly. Awesome song.
You know, in highschool I used to be really into emo music, then I went to college and completely got out of it. But the thing is, sometimes I play my emo music, and songs like these always help me out when I am in a bad mood.
I think its because sometimes when you are going through a bad situation, a lot of times your friends tell you, oh that sucks, or even give you advice. But what you really want them to tell you is, your not alone, you can make it out, have courage, I am there with you. And when you dont have people tell you that, that is when you have bad thoughts. I just think that this song does that really well, telling us the things that we not so want, but NEED to hear... That we aren't alone, and that we can strive out of this terrible situation.
Thanks Saosin.
I think this song is about two people in separate situations that both feel like no one shares their feelings. The boy has probably lost his family or close friends when he says wander off in the evergreen park. Slowly searching. For any sign of the ones he used to love". This could very wellbe a graveyard or something of the sort. The chorus tells him that others feel the same way and can deal with it so he can too. The girl is over protected by her parents who don't want to expose her to the rest of the world, but that stops her from finding herself. She is jealous of everyone else because "Her eyes turn to green" green equalling jealousy. The "you will live to tell" means that they will not commit suicide over their problems and live to tell about how they realized that they weren't alone
i totally love this. it once suddenly started while i sat in my room feeling alone. it gives me the goosebumps
I love this song. It really hits hard. This has definately helped me through some tough times and it still is. Anytime I'm feeling crappy, I just sit alone in my room in the dark and cry to this song. Sounds lame, I know.
In no way does that sound lame. I do the same thing man. This song has helped me a ton and I respect anyone like you who can say that about himself.

When i was going through a hard time, i wish i knew about this song. The meaning is pretty obvious. When i was suicidal i thought i was alone, and that no one thought the same way i did. But i guess i was wrong. Just like the song says, "you're not alone". <3
This song has a very broad message about hope, but there is perhaps a deeper meaning about where people choose to derive happiness. There are two distinct characters; a male and a female. The first character is in search of something because he has nothing, or he is searching to regain what he once had.
In contrast, the female character finds herself discontent with her privileged existence. She realizes that she is tired of living for herself. She is alone because of her greed ('her eyes turn to green'-'green' being a classic symbol for envy, greed and sickness). Both characters alone.
The first character would find comfort in understanding that he is not alone in his plot in life, while the second character's problems would be remedied if she realized that she wasn't the only person on earth.
Two characters, two very different sides of the same loneliness.
It surprises me that no one thought of seeing a theme in green. The boy is in the park, where are those he used to love? Tell me, did they forget him? Are they consumed by the world, the videogames, hiding from him, he is not looking for them...or even: did they die? Either physically or spiritually? He is not looking for them, he is looking for a sign, their love for him. He is alone, but remember the park is green.
Then there is the girl, spoiled, rotten, the lies: this life is about pressing this button to get that feeling. Chasing a life of pleasure, hard to get but easy to get, used, never treated with the love she was hoping for, but her eyes struck the park. The park is green, that fills her eyes with GREEN!!! Not just green, but the person in the green. They are looking for true and real love that doesn't fade, that doesn't keep them alone. They might be even looking for God, may I, eternal Being, eternal gift of Love.
It could as well be two souls, it just reminded me in a way of this painting series: the poem of a soul. And...here it is 1 person, but in the painting the person journeys, NEVER ALONE

PS: she looks for herself, but looking at the park, she no longer sees herself, she sees someone, looking for someone. Just to add to what I wrote.

As the child grows up, Janmot represents it as a duality of boy, shown here in pink, and girl, in white symbolising purity and innocence. The pair are shown at play, picking flowers, in an idyllic country landscape during the spring.

This mystical duality continues through most of the rest of the oil paintings. At times, the pair appear to be brother and sister, or even lovers, but as we will see, in the end they represent the earthly body (boy) and the spirit (girl). They are usually...

This song is great. I have the whole actual album now.
I enjoy this song about 10x more than the others seeing how the others are either early-release or revamped versions of other songs, or bits of other songs were used to make a certain song.
But this song, completely new. Sadly it doesnt sound so much like Saosin anymore. Hopefully Beau and Justin will change that with the next LP/EP.
