Someone New Lyric Analysis

Go and take this the wrong wayYou knew who I was with every step that I ran to you,

Only blue or black daysElecting strange perfections in any stranger I choose

Would things be easier if there was a right way? Honey, there is no right way

[Chorus]So I fall in love just a little, oh little bitEveryday with someone newI fall in love just a little, oh little bitEveryday with someone newI fall in love just a little, oh little bitEveryday with someone newI fall in love just a little, oh little bitEveryday with someone new

There's an art to life's distractionSome how escape the burning way the art of scraping through

Some like to imagineThe dark caress of someone else I guess any thrill will do

Indicating that he isn’t showing any remorse about for showing his true colours and who he is, due to knowing who he was and his intentions when they first met and based on the circumstances that they met in he shouldn’t flabbergasted nor shocked at his conduct.

He’s saying he’s has fallen into a state depression (blue or black), and chases serial hookups to numb the pain of a failed relationship

I believe this rhetorical question in the lyrics implies that he cannot manage to find a way to physically be with the one he desires and with having any feeling, thus changing demeanor of their already established relationship or arrangement

The chorus connotes that he doesn’t find any satisfaction in his hookups beyond their initial “strange perfections”

It should say “the burning weight”. Life’s distraction is love, which just barely escapes the burning weight, or the difficulties love faces us with.

In other words love barely manages to scrape through when we find ourselves having problems with love.

This may be referring to people who cheat, imagining the dark or forbidden caress of another, as a way of not getting tired of the relationship they are in.

Would things be easier if there was a right way?Honey, there is no right way


[Chorus]

I wake at the first cringe of morningAnd my heart's already sinnedHow pure, how sweet your loveAretha, can you pray for him

Cause God knows...


Luck with every strangerThe stranger the better (x4)

[Chorus]

Hoizer wakes at the first sign of morning (when most people are at their grumpiest). The word “cringe” is wrought from the feeling of remorse and shame that comes with “sinning”. Even before his day starts, he’s already done something wrong; a sin. Most likely a one night stand with someone who is nothing to him.

He asks Aretha Franklin — the musician most notable for her song “Respect” — to pray for him; thereby alluding to a song called I Say A Little Prayer.

This line addresses the freedom that can come with meeting new people and doing new things. However, it carries the implication of anonymous sex from the combination of two tropes: “getting lucky” and “getting some strange”.
