Awake
Ayokay Feat. Mafalda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now I know
I made it seem like it was wrong
I thought it through and it's not gone
It's in my head
I can't forget
All the things that didn't last
If only we were more attached
But If I ever love you
I would lose control
Baby, it's time for me to step away
And if I ever love you
I would never fall
The thought of you it keeps me
Awake
(It keeps me awake)
Here's a chance
To run away
From all the things we left behind
It shouldnt be this hard to find
What's in the way
I can't replay
All the memories we could've had
If only you realize that
But If I ever love you
I would lose control
Baby, it's time for me to step away
And if I ever love you
I would never fall
The thought of you it keeps me
Awake
(It keeps me awake)
(It keeps me awake)
(It keeps me awake)
The song "Awake" by ayokay feat. mafalda is a heartwarming, yet melancholic track that deals with a past relationship that didn't go as planned. The song's narrator is grappling with the reality that, even though they thought they were doing the right thing, they ended up hurting the person they cared about the most. The chorus - "But if I ever love you, I would lose control. Baby, it's time for me to step away. And if I ever love you, I would never fall. The thought of you, it keeps me awake" - is a poignant representation of the singer's struggle to cope with their feelings while trying to move on. The phrase "the thought of you, it keeps me awake" is particularly meaningful because it shows that the singer can't stop thinking about their lost love, and they're haunted by their regrets.
The verses of the song expand on the singer's feelings of guilt and longing. The first verse talks about how the singer made the relationship seem wrong, and how they wish they could take it back. The second verse talks about how the singer wishes they could go back in time and make things work, but they're also resigned to the fact that it's too late. Overall, "Awake" is a very relatable song that deals with universal themes of regret, loss, and moving on.
