Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But where you're going
Has had enough
Don't let me wait
'Cause in the morning
It's too late
You're not there
Thinkin' you could disappear
Holdin' on
To what you were
Now nobody wants it
Hey
What's it like
To keep from talking
cbout your night
I try my best
'Cause in the mornin'
I'll be less I know it
cll this time, waiting for the moment
clmost mine
cll those nights, holding it together
One more try
I'll stand by waiting every summer
But is it right
Tell me why
Is this what you wanted
For your life
I walk by
You're not there
Thinkin' you could disappear
Holdin' on
To what you were
Now nobody wants it, it's too late
The lyrics to "In the Morning" by Cal in Red convey a sense of longing, loss, and reflection. The opening line, "Oh, bet it's rough, but where you're going has had enough," suggests that the person being addressed is facing a difficult situation or challenge. However, the next line implies that the destination or goal they are pursuing has already reached its saturation point, meaning that it may not bring them the fulfillment or happiness they anticipate.
The following lines, "Don't let me wait, 'cause in the morning, it's too late," express a sense of urgency and the fear of missing out on something important. The singer doesn't want to be left waiting and hopes that the intended recipient of the message will act before it's too late in the morning, suggesting that opportunities may be fleeting and time-sensitive.
Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of someone who is no longer present, as indicated by the lines, "I walk by, you're not there, thinkin' you could disappear." This hints at a sense of loss or abandonment, and the singer still holds onto memories of what the person used to be. However, the line "Now nobody wants it, it's too late" implies that the past version of this person is no longer desired or valued by others, further amplifying the feeling of longing and nostalgia.
The chorus poses a question to the person addressed, asking, "Hey, what's it like to keep from talking about your night?" It suggests that this person may be guarded or unwilling to share their experiences, perhaps hiding pain or secrets. The singer acknowledges their own efforts to try their best and suppress their own emotions until the morning, suggesting a desire to appear stronger or more composed. They recognize that in the morning, they will be less affected or impacted by the situation at hand.
Overall, "In the Morning" captures the emotions of longing, missed opportunities, and the bittersweet nature of memories that have begun to fade.

Oh, bet it's rough
I understand that it's difficult for you
But where you're going
The path you're taking
Has had enough
Has reached its limit
Don't let me wait
Please don't make me wait
'Cause in the morning
Because by the time morning comes
It's too late
It will be too late to change things
I walk by
I pass by you
You're not there
You're not present
Thinkin' you could disappear
Believing that you could vanish
Holdin' on
Holding onto
To what you were
To who you used to be
Now nobody wants it
But now nobody desires it
Hey
Hey
What's it like
How does it feel
To keep from talking
To avoid talking
About your night
About what happened during your night
I try my best
I do my best
'Cause in the mornin'
Because in the morning
I'll be less I know it
I'll feel more incomplete, I'm aware of it
cll this time, waiting for the moment
Spent all this time, waiting for the right moment
clmost mine
Almost mine
cll those nights, holding it together
All those nights, keeping things together
One more try
Another attempt
I'll stand by waiting every summer
I'll remain here waiting every summer
But is it right
But is it the correct thing to do
Tell me why
Please explain to me why
Is this what you wanted
Is this what you desired
For your life
For your existence
Now nobody wants it, it's too late
But now nobody desires it, it's too late
