Song Meaning of “HALO” by Block B
HALO is a song by Block B that speaks of being alone yet surrounded by people at the same time. In the song, the narrator expresses his feelings of loneliness and isolation despite being in a crowded environment. He speaks of the sense of meaningless yet unavoidable interactions with people around him and how he has yet to find someone that he can connect on a deeper level. He speaks of wanting to have a halo around him and those he loves, protecting and shielding them from the negative influences of the world.
The song speaks of the need to find acceptance and understanding despite the loneliness and emptiness one can feel when struggling to find true connection. It reminds us that while we may be surrounded by people, it does not necessarily mean that we have true embrace or companionship. It speaks of the need to find somebody who will be our “halo” – someone who will be our protector and our safe haven. In the chorus, the narrator cries out to this special someone and pleads for them to stay by his side, no matter the darkness and obstacles they may face together.
In the end the song reminds us that despite all the loneliness and despair we might feel we can still strive to find a special someone to call our halo and in doing so we can find beauty, acceptance, and strength.
