Annekei Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
fill me up inside I´ve tried to exclude you from my life
But I keep running back to what we had And what we
never tried
Boy, I´m sad that I didn´t realize befor Baby, I´m scared
that I´ll always love you more
melt every time I saw you And I haven´t melted since
Nothing bears the way that your hands would hold me I
guess hit it right when you told me That our love
would never end
I´ve tried to find meaning of my life But as I get closer,
the more I deny ´Cause it´s true, me meaning is in you Tell
me is it too late to recreate The paradise we made?
In Annekei's song "Melt," the singer expresses the emotional turmoil she experiences as she grapples with a failed relationship. The first stanza finds her overwhelmed by memories of the person she once loved, despite her best efforts to move on. She reflects on the fact that she took their love for granted, and she worries that she will always feel this way about them.
The chorus highlights the intensity of the singer's feelings. She compares the sensation of being near her former partner to "melting," a fitting metaphor for the way her emotions consume her. She longs to recapture the love and connection they once shared, but she wonders if it's too late.
The final stanza reveals that the singer has been searching for meaning in her life, but she realizes that her former partner was the source of that meaning all along. This realization is bittersweet, as she wonders if they can ever get back to the paradise they once shared. The song is ultimately a meditation on lost love and the difficulty of letting go of what was once so important.
