Outrageous bright Lady Gaga never ceases to amaze her fans. Despite non-standard images, catchy details, hidden subtexts of the performer’s composition are endowed with deep meaning. Each clip of the artist is thought out to the smallest detail, the finals of the video amaze with their unpredictability. 911 is the emergency number in some countries. Why did Lady Gaga choose this number for her song?
Meaning of “911” by Lady Gaga
In the first part of the composition, the lyrical heroine reports that she is at the mercy of her emotions. She lives the same situation over and over again. “I keep repeating hate phrases about myself.” The girl is very dissatisfied with herself. The heroine tries to forget about the events that happened, but she does not succeed well. Dark thoughts swirl around in my head. They do not give her peace of mind day or night. The heroine is already beginning to quietly hate this state. But can she make a difference?
“Like I didn’t have a choice.” The girl suddenly realized that it was in her power to change everything. She could simply not allow such an outcome. The heroine talks about her life. What is most important, on what goals you need to focus your attention. “I wish I could laugh and have good friends.” simple human joys. This is what the heroine has been missing for so long. But right now she realized that she was ready for change both mentally and physically. “Beware, life, I’m coming.” An aimless, boring existence is not for her. She is ready to start rediscovering the world. It is not difficult to reconsider your life orientations, views, values. It is difficult to decide to take the first step.
In the next part of the song, the girl says that she is tired of crying. Her life is filled with sad events, dark colors. Sadness, longing, torment and inner doubts became her faithful companions. She no longer wants and cannot live like this. The heroine stops to think, look around and choose the right path. “I can’t watch myself cry.” Life is too short to waste it on empty experiences and people who have proven with all their actions that you are no longer on the same path with them.
In the second verse, the main meaning of the composition “911” is hidden. “My main enemy is me.” All limitations, frames are only in our head. A miserable, meaningless life is your choice. Loneliness is also your choice. No one forces you to engage in uninteresting activities, to pull on yourself “sick relationships.” A person should strive for high goals, wishing for the almost impossible. If you don’t help yourself, no one will save you. It’s no use calling 911 if you can’t figure out what you want. You just become a hostage to your sad thoughts and gloomy emotions. It is important to break this vicious circle as soon as possible and understand that life is much more interesting and brighter than it seems at first glance. All in your hands.
The next part of the composition is about the fact that many people put off their lives “for later.” They seem to write a draft, believing that someday the moment will come when they will live. But such a moment will not come if a person only plans, analyzes. It is important to enjoy every day of your life. People forget the value of time. “I keep my dolls in a diamond box.” Why do people store their things, try to leave them “until better times”? Until quite recently, the girl herself lived like this. But now she realized that every moment matters.
The meaning of the video for the song “911” by Lady Gaga
Beginning of the clip. Beautiful girl, hot desert. But suddenly the viewer realizes that the heroine lives in a world of her own illusions. She dreams of a luxurious life, but does not take any steps to realize her goals. The characters are changing. They surprise, sometimes even shock. However, on the screen, the viewer sees repeated movements again and again. No new actions, but only fantasies.
Every person wants a comfortable life. But everyone has their own criteria. The girl wanted to be the center of attention, she longed for bright events, incredible emotions. The heroine could not realize what she wanted in life. At the end of the clip, the viewer sees that the girl has broken down, unstuck. They try to help her, but it’s not enough. The heroine must help herself. It is vital for her to look at her life path and draw the right conclusions that will lead her to her goals. The point of the video for the song “911” is that you can’t always rely on others. You are responsible for yourself and your life. And how your existence will be – happy or joyless – also depends solely on you.
911 Lyrics by Lady Gaga
Turnin’ up emotional faders
Keep repeating self-hating phrases
I have heard enough of these voices
Almost like I have no choice
This is biological stasis
My mood’s shifting to manic places
Wish I laughed and kept the good friendships
Watch life, here I go again
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry ever again (Ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry, this is the end (Ooh)
My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me ever since day one
Pop a 911, then pop another one
Keep my dolls inside diamond boxes
Save ’em ’til I know I’m gonna drop this front
I’ve built around me, oasis
Paradise is in my hands
Holdin’ on so tight to this status
It’s not real, but I’ll try to grab it
Keep myself in beautiful places
Paradise is in my hands
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry ever again (Ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry, this is the end (Ooh)
My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me ever since day one
Pop a 911, then pop another one
Pop, pop another one (Ooh)
Pop a 911, then pop another one (Ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry ever again (Ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry, this is the end (Ooh)
My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me, pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me ever since day one
Pop a 911, then pop another one
Please patch the line, please patch the line
Need a 911, can you patch the line?
Please patch the line, please patch the line
Need a 911, can you patch the line?
911 Lyrics by Lady Gaga Alternative
I give in to my emotions
I keep repeating phrases of hate about myself,
I’ve heard enough of these voices
Like I didn’t have a choice…
It’s a biological phenomenon
My mood goes into a manic state
I wish I could laugh and have good friends
Watch out life, I’m coming…
I can’t watch myself cry
I can’t see myself cry again
I can’t watch myself cry
I can’t see myself crying, this is the end…
My main enemy is me. Call 911
My main enemy is me. Call 911
My main enemy is me. From day one.
Call 911 and then again.
Keep my dolls in a diamond box
I’ll keep them there until I drop them…
The front that I’ve built around me is an oasis
Heaven is in my hands
I hold on to this status so tightly
It’s not material, but I keep holding on…
Hiding in beautiful places
Heaven is in my hands.
I can’t watch myself cry
I can’t see myself cry again
I can’t watch myself cry
I can’t see myself crying, this is the end…
My main enemy is me. Call 911
My main enemy is me. Call 911
My main enemy is me. From day one.
Call 911 and then again.
Call again!
Call 911 and then again!
I can’t watch myself cry
I can’t see myself cry again
I can’t watch myself cry
I can’t see myself crying, this is the end…
My main enemy is me. Call 911
My main enemy is me. Call 911
My main enemy is me. From day one.
Call 911 and then again.

Analysis of “911” Lady Gaga
This video is closely related to the film “Garnet Color / Tsg”, then I will give all the explanations point by point.
The meaning of the clip: After the accident, Gaga loses consciousness, and finds herself in a different world where everyone is fighting for their lives. Stephanie manages to escape and returns to the real world.
[Start]
Lying next to a broken bike, closer to a grenade, a red bandage on his face.
• Grenades – A symbol of eternal life, a sign of rebirth. (Tsg)
Then she gets up and follows the messenger of death, he leads Gaga to the temple of a new religion.
Also, the main symbol of this religion is the Sun. Due to the distortion of reality and imagination, she sees different people.
• The guy hits the pillow –
fighting for his life. Maybe he is praying to God, the prayer is somewhat similar to Islamic due to the repeated repetitions of bows. Available in CG.• A woman with a mummy – ¹ symbolizes the Armenian couple, where the girl is grieving for a dead guy
² If this is not her boyfriend, but a son, then this personifies the death of Abrahamic spiritual traditions. Two priests holding an icon with the living goddess Stephanie –
¹ These are firemen. Available in CG.A man and a woman are descending from the sky:
¹ The man’s umbrella is the blades of a helicopter, the man is a doctor.
A woman in white is a nurse – The
birth of a new religion –
A woman holds a mirror of the goddess Ishtar (the central deity, the goddess of carnal love and childbirth). In today’s world, this role is more suited to midwives. Then next to her obstetrician-gynecologist.
³ The woman is the goddess Kali and her husband is Shiva, personifying the destructive principle.
A wealthy man who has suffered the least, but receives the best help from rescuers. In Gaga’s subconscious, doctors are trying to kill her, but in reality it is quite the opposite.
When Stephanie with a white rose (the rose opens) rises to the sky, at this time she is quickly pulled by the thread (the rose withers), thereby returning her to the real world for a second, in the clip this is marked as frame 25.Then we are shown the temple of Solomon, the golden gate of which is a symbol of the female birth canal. Near the gate there is a copper sea, earlier it was used for washing the priests. Stephanie in red symbolizes the birth of a child, and the rope in the doctor’s hand symbolizes the umbilical cord. After a couple of seconds, she shows the sign of Baphomed. Frame with a figurine of a little girl with a knife. This is due to the text, when Gaga took out this figurine, there were such words:
“I don’t take dolls out of diamond boxes. Keeping them until I’m ready to break the fence.”
It symbolizes traumatic memories locked in the subconscious. Doctor with a twisted snake sign of pedophilia
Doctors do not allow Stephanie to go to another world and wish her to arrange a trial so that the star will be punished. At the end of the clip, Gaga’s execution takes place. Lady Gaga is crying and does not want to return to Earth, for her now this is the most terrible punishment. This is connected with the Color of Pomegranate, the main character of the film is a poet who is looking for himself and his place in a world that he never found. Death for the poet becomes joy and relief.
Lady Gaga in the video also sought death as freedom and absolution from sins. She wanted to escape the punishment that she had done other people a lot of harm. This is not about the accident captured and the clip. And in real life, Gaga, the singer carried destructive values to the world, following the instructions of different societies. In any case, it is logical that Gaga has something to repent about this and say the words of the song “911”.The inscription on the yellow ribbon is translated from Armenian: “beware”.
There is an inscription “Armenian Film Festival”. Now the situation on the border of Armenia and Azerbaijan is heating up, and the countries are already mobilizing reservists, while Turkey, the USA and France are participating in the negotiations between them.
Based on this, we can assume that it is Armenia that will become the place from which the formation of a new world order will begin.
