- Julien LyricsSongwriters: Forrest, Steven Joseph; Lloyd, William Patrick; Molko, Brian; Olsdal, Stefan;
The payback is here
Take a look, it's all around you
You thought you'd never shed a tear
So this must astound, must confound you
Buy a ticket for the train
Hide in a suitcase if you have to
This ain't no singing in the rain
This is a twister that will destroy you
You can run but you can't hide
Because no one here gets out alive
Find a friend in whom you can confide
Julien, you're a slow motion suicide
Fallen angels in the night
And everyone is far from heaven
Just one more hit to make it right
But everyone turns into seven
Now that's it's snowing in your brain
Even ten will not placate you
This ain't no cure for the pain
This avalanche will suffocate you
You can run but you can't hide
Because no one here gets out alive
Find a friend on whom you can rely
Julien, you're being taken for a ride
You can run but you can't hide
Because no one here gets out alive
Find a friend in whom you can confide
Julien, you're a slow motion suicide, slow motion suicide
Slow motion suicide, slow motion suicide
Slow motion suicide, slow motion suicide
Slow motion suicide, slow motion suicide
Slow motion suicide, slow motion suicide

When we consider what the writer meant by those haunting lines, Placebo's song 'Julien' is a thorough exploration of the human condition with its main concerns; death and the consequent fear of death. Such concerns are effectively communicated through the use of metaphors like 'snowing in your brain' and 'slow-motion suicide.' While the lyrics of Julien clearly focus on the human feelings of angst, despair, reflection, isolation, and anger, the song at the same time points to the ultimate outcome of things, the role of desperation and the use of escapism, self-destruction, and loss of innocence. The lyrics express themes of despair, suicide, and strong emotional upheaval, which are only appropriate for an adult audience. The use of language is powerful and the painting of images is dark, thus the song may only be suitable for those above 13 years old unless parental guidance is provided.
