- Unsung LyricsYour contribution left unnoticed some
Association with an image
Just credit time for showing up again
Attention wandered I'm left with it
Gone by sin to slowly
Can't pass it up
Then I thought nothing is right
I turned it off
To die unsung would really bring you down
Although wet eyes would never suit you
Walk through no archetypal suicide
Die young is far to boring these days
Your will to speak clearly
exposed too much
Unsung once too often
Could not rub off
Association with an image
Just credit time for showing up again
Attention wandered I'm left with it
Gone by sin to slowly
Can't pass it up
Then I thought nothing is right
I turned it off
To die unsung would really bring you down
Walk through no archetypal suicide
Die young is far to boring these days
Your will to speak clearly
exposed too much
Unsung once too often
Could not rub off

When we look beyond the surface of the words, Helmet's 'Unsung' is a song that talks about the feeling of being appreciated less than one is worth and being in the limelight on a very low scale. It uses the metaphor of not getting credit for a person's own struggles to give the feeling of a person's death by the big music industry's uninterest. During the whole song, the metaphor of fading away unacknowledged is elucidated which means the desire of being acknowledged and valued is great. The metaphor of dying unsung is used to illustrate the fear of being forgotten or not having a lasting impact, and at the same time, it is contrasted against the idea that adapting to social norms and expectations is dull and unsatisfactory in today's world. Meanwhile, 'Unsung' by Helmet keeps lingering on the subjects of angst, heartbreak, despair, reflection, and solitude. However, struggle for recognition, existential reflection, and the communication of vulnerability find acceptance through the song's dynamic. The lyrical content incorporates existential questioning and even suggests suicide, thus, implying that the song may not be a suitable option for children under 13. There is no profanity and graphic content; however, the mature themes give a reason for the song's PG-13 rating.
