| Pink – What About Us Lyrics | 8 years ago |

I see this as a cry against anyone who betrays trust from a position of authority. Maybe a parent or something, or the whole society and the way in which it handles parenting. The first verse, it's all about how "we had potential but you sold us out" the second verse is something like "we needed your help and your guidance but you led us astray and we won't have it anymore" the chorus is like "what about the people you threw under the bus? You've betrayed us, you've led us into disaster, our trust is shattered, our love is shattered." the bridge seems like something of a call to revolution or a warning that one is coming. "I don't want control, I want to let go" is something like... "I don't want your influence over me anymore, I want to let go of the illusion of protection that provides, it's not like I'm taking over, more like I'm taking what's mine and then moving on". just my thoughts lol |
