Hangover
Arya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're waking from love
Changing your mind from
The way that it was
I'm in the kitchen
Making breakfast at dusk
I want you to stay over
And every time
I get close to you
I wish that we were through
How you wanna play this game
For two
Settle down
Don't keep waiting for the sun
All the light from both the moon and stars
Is wasted when
You're trying to stay up
You're waking from love
Changing your mind
From the way that it was
Said you were tired
But I'm in no rush
I want you to stay over
You'll be my
Hangover
When it's night
You know the vibes
Worked hard all week just to have a good time
And in the morning I'm questioning why
Head hurting more as you come to my mind
Tried to settle down
But the drinks are flying by me
Stars and moon collide
Take a sip of what's inside it
I don't need a sip when you're right here by my side
You're trying to stay up
Waking from love
Changing your mind from
The way that it was
Settle down
Don't keep waiting for the sun
Want you to stay over
My hangover
These lyrics, from Arya's song "Hangover," depict a complex emotional state that comes after a night of intense love and passion. The singer is addressing a person who is trying to resist the strong connection between them, but ultimately cannot deny their desire to be together. The first verse highlights the conflicting emotions of the singer, as they are torn between wanting the person to leave and wanting them to stay and become their "hangover." This metaphor of a hangover represents the lasting effect and intensity of their connection, even after the initial high.
The second verse delves deeper into the singer's feelings and actions. They describe being in the kitchen, making breakfast at an unusual time like dusk, emphasizing the disorienting and unconventional nature of their relationship. The desire for the person to stay over is a display of their longing for continued togetherness, despite the potential difficulties that may arise.
The chorus further emphasizes the internal struggle of the singer. They express the conflicting emotions that arise when they get close to this person, wishing to be over them and yet unable to resist their allure. The mention of playing a game for two further emphasizes the push and pull dynamic of their relationship.
The bridge is a plea for the person to settle down and not wait for an ideal situation or perfect timing. The singer acknowledges that postponing their connection will only result in wasting the present moment and the love that exists between them. Finally, the song concludes with a repetition of the chorus and the longing for the person to stay over and be the singer's hangover.
Overall, "Hangover" portrays the intoxicating and tumultuous nature of a passionate connection, highlighting the internal struggle and conflicting emotions that arise between two individuals.

Becoming aware of the realities and complexities of love
Want you to stay over
Desire for you to spend more time with me, to deepen our connection
My hangover
You become the lingering effect or consequence of our time spent together
