The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Annie" by the artist "Wolfsheim"

Wolfsheim's "Annie" is a poignant critique of the apathy and indifference pervading modern society. The song's lyrical protagonist embodies an individual consumed by entertainment and news, oblivious to the suffering of others, symbolized by Annie, who lives next door.

The lyrics juxtapose the vivid, captivating imagery of television with the gray, joyless reality the protagonist ignores. This emphasizes how the pursuit of thrills and a "personal horror movie" blinds people to the pain of others. The line "Jesus Christ, we love you so much since we saw your TV show" is a sarcastic jab at how media shapes our values and emotions.

The recurring phrase "You couldn't be with her and didn't hear what Annie said" underscores the protagonist's indifference. He remains oblivious to Annie's sadness, joy, and love, trapped in a cocoon of apathy.

The song is a call to action for listeners to awaken from their slumber, pay attention to the world around them, and listen to the voices of those in need. After all, indifference can be more dangerous than any act of violence.

And you're sitting in your room

Enjoying entertainment

And you're watching TV

Colours bright and so enchanting

You couldn't be near her

Wouldn't hear what Annie says

When Annie's sad

You couldn't be near her

Wouldn't hear what Annie says

And your waiting for your daily thrill impatiently ...

To collect it for your private horror show

And you're watching moving shadows live instead of you... And you...

You don't know that Annie's living next to you

Jesus christ we love you so

Since we saw your TV-show

Suicidal tendencies, but no will to interfere

Feel it coming over you ... Indifference ... Indifference ...

Choosing channels watching news

Ignoring Annie's point of view

You couldn't be near her

Wouldn't hear what Annie says

When Annie's sad

You couldn't be near her

Wouldn't hear what Annie says

You couldn't be near her

Wouldn't hear when Annie laughs... When Annie laughs

You couldn't be hear her

Wouldn't feel that Annie... Annie... Annie loves
