Baby Chaos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Because your mental health
Will suffer little more tears flow just like before
When are you going to stop crying
You can't keep it up all the time
No! I didn′t know it could be like this
No! I didn't know it was serious
Your whisper is divine
Can I hear it all the time
What did I ever do
It was always down to you
No! I didn't know it could be like this
No! I didn′t know it was serious
I remember how you taste your bad breath upon my face
Words failed me wait and see what will be still may be
It′s not what we became forever it was the same
No! I didn't know it could be like this
No! I didn′t know it was serious
I can't say it to your face so I′ll say it here instead
You're living with a memory remember the end remember
No! I didn′t know it could be like this
No! I didn't know it was serious
The song Pink by Baby Chaos portrays a sense of regret, sadness, and confusion through its lyrics. The song describes a relationship that has come to an end, leaving the singer with a feeling of loss and frustration. The first two lines of the song suggest that the singer's partner has moved on to someone else, causing the singer to question their mental health and leaving them to cry tears just like before. The chorus features the repeating lines, "No! I didn't know it could be like this / No! I didn't know it was serious," highlighting the singer's shock and disbelief at the end of the relationship.
The second verse of the song suggests that the singer was deeply in love with their partner, admiring their "divine" whisper and questioning what they did wrong in the relationship. The bridge of the song paints a picture of some vivid memories, with the singer remembering their partner's taste and bad breath upon their face. However, the bridge ends with the line "It's not what we became forever it was the same," implying that their relationship was always doomed to end this way.
In the final verse of the song, the singer is unable to confront their partner about their feelings, so they express them through the song. The line "You're living with a memory remember the end remember" suggests that despite everything, the singer hopes that their partner remembers the end of their relationship and learns from it.
