Be Alone by Julian Guba
In this song (Be Alone), Julian describes the struggle of being with someone who promises to change but continues to act “kinda shady.” We can all relate to that, can’t we? It’s like they say, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me thrice, and I’m outta here!”
The refrain hits hard with the realization that sometimes, it’s best to just be alone. No more waiting for someone who can’t keep their promises and whose true colors eventually show. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but sometimes, it’s necessary for our own well-being.
In the first verse, we hear his frustration with his partner’s behavior. Their smoke is bigger than their flame, and they try to look fancy at night, but their true colors always show. It’s like they’re putting on a show for everyone, including the artist, but it’s not fooling anyone.
The chorus repeats the theme of broken promises and shady behavior, driving the singer to the point where being alone is the best option. The post-chorus further emphasizes the artist’s determination to be alone and not let anyone bring them down.
The second verse takes on a more bitter tone, with the artist describing their partner as greedy and pretending to hide their bluff. They almost deceived the artist, but luckily, they saw through it. The refrain returns, with the artist acknowledging that their house is burning, and they need to leave to avoid exploding. The ashes of the relationship have created hatred, and the artist just wants to be left alone.
In conclusion, “Be Alone” is a powerful and relatable song for anyone who has been in a toxic relationship. It’s a reminder that sometimes, it’s better to be alone than to be with someone who can’t keep their promises and whose true colors always show. So, turn up the volume and sing along with our dear artist, “I’ll try my best to be alone!”
LYRICS: Be Alone by Julian Guba
[Refrain 1]
I know you promised and you’re sorry
And that you’ll try to be at home, but
I see you acting kinda shady, baby
I think it’s best I’ll be alone, be alone, be alone
I’ll try my best to be alone
[Verse 1]
Talkin’ ’bout all the things that drive me crazy
Your smoke is bigger than your flame, hm
And in the night you try to look so fancy
True colors show so try it again
[Chorus]
I know you promised and you’re sorry
And that you’ll try to be at home, but
I see you acting kinda shady, baby
I think it’s best I’ll be alone
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I’ll try my best to be alone
[Verse 2]
Talkin’ to everyone, oh boy you’re greedy
You play pretend to hide your bluff, mhmhm
End of the night you almost did deceive me
I should be glad I’m not enough
[Refrain 2]
My house is burning, you can’t see it
I need to leave to not explode
Cuz in these ashes you’ve created hatred
Go on just leave me be alone, be alone, be alone
I’ll try my best to be alone
[Chorus]
I know you promised and you’re sorry (I know you’re sorry)
And that you’ll try to be at home, but (I’ll try my best to be at home)
I see you acting kinda shady, baby (Mhm)
I think it’s best I’ll be alone
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I’ll try my best to be alone
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I’ll try my best to be alone
