The Hidden Struggles Behind the Showbiz Facade

Arno's song 'Fix it' delves into the internal conflicts and disillusionment faced by someone entrenched in the world of showbiz. The lyrics paint a picture of a person who feels misunderstood and trapped by societal expectations. The opening lines, 'Nobody teaches me how to dance / But they told how to lie,' suggest a life where superficial skills and deceit are valued over genuine self-expression and authenticity. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, where the protagonist grapples with the pressure to conform and the desire to escape from the public eye.

The recurring line, 'Gonna fix it so they won't see me anymore,' serves as a mantra for the protagonist's yearning to disappear and find solace away from the prying eyes of society. This sentiment is further emphasized by the lines, 'I've had dreams, nobody can see / A hole in my soul nobody can feel,' which highlight the deep sense of isolation and unfulfilled aspirations. The protagonist's dreams and inner turmoil are invisible to the outside world, adding to their sense of alienation.

The song also critiques the superficiality of the entertainment industry, as seen in the lines, 'It's all about showbiz dreams / Showbiz talk, a showbiz smile.' The protagonist feels like a 'bird in a golden cage,' trapped in a glamorous yet confining world. The raw and explicit ending, 'One, three, four, two, fuck you,' underscores the protagonist's frustration and rejection of the industry's hollow values. Arno's poignant lyrics and emotive delivery make 'Fix it' a powerful commentary on the hidden struggles behind the showbiz facade.
