SCENE
BROCKHAMPTON Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No hago cosas solamente para divertirme
Siento como si en los últimos meses hubiera estado sentado en ese bowl gigante de cereal
El mismo que solíamos comer de jóvenes
Siento como si estuviera flotando en la leche, medio ahogándome
Puedo olerla en mi ropa si respiro profundamente
Ojalá te pudiera ver como antes
Acostados juntos a ver quién de los dos se dormía primero
Te extraño, te amo
Pedazo de mierda
In BROCKHAMPTON's song "SCENE," the lyrics depict a sense of introspection and longing for a past relationship. The opening lines, "No soy como los demás, No hago cosas solamente para divertirme" (I'm not like the others, I don't do things just for fun), express a feeling of being different from others and engaging in more meaningful actions. The next lines convey a metaphorical image of sitting in a giant bowl of cereal, reminiscent of the carefree days of their youth. However, the singer feels as if they are now floating in a pool of milk, almost drowning. This imagery implies a sense of suffocation or being overwhelmed by nostalgia, as they can even smell the milk in their clothes if they take a deep breath.
The lyrics then shift towards the longing for the past relationship and the desire to recreate those moments. The lines "Ojalá te pudiera ver como antes, Acostados juntos a ver quién de los dos se dormía primero" (I wish I could see you like before, lying together to see who falls asleep first) emphasize the yearning for intimacy and the desire to relive those moments. The lyrics conclude with the conflicting emotions of missing and loving the person, but also expressing frustration with them - "Te extraño, te amo, Pedazo de mierda" (I miss you, I love you, Piece of shit).
Overall, "SCENE" delves into themes of nostalgia, longing, and the complexities of emotions attached to a past relationship.
