Waves
Chloe Moriondo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I feel like I wanna go back
To a time before my mind turned black
I miss the way it was
When instead of just my gooey brains
All that melted was popsicles and the rain just pelted down
Down on me

Make me into more than a goner
Perhaps a little bit stronger
Thicker skin, less needy,
And maybe to not bruise so damn easily, but you can't
And I won't

I want you to help keep me from growing older
Just let me snot on your shoulder
When all that I'm thinking 'bout is her
Her
Give me everything you got
Don't need drugs cause I can already feel my head rot
And it won't stop

It won't stop
It won't stop
It won't stop
It won't stop

Please slow down
Please slow down

Make it all slow down
Make it all slow down





Make it all slow down

The singer expresses vulnerability and a desire for comfort, asking the person addressed in the song to let them "snot on your shoulder" and help them slow down and find some peace.


Overall, the song seems to be about the experience of being overwhelmed and anxious, and the desire to find safety and comfort in a simpler time or another person. The repeated refrain of "It won't stop" reinforces the feeling of being trapped and unable to escape the intensity of the singer's thoughts and emotions, while the final lines express a hope for relief and a plea for the world to slow down.


Line by Line Meaning

Sometimes I feel like I wanna go back
There are times when I wish to return to the earlier days


To a time before my mind turned black
To a time before my mind was clouded with sadness


I miss the way it was
I miss the way things used to be


When instead of just my gooey brains
When there was nothing on my mind except love's gooey feeling


All that melted was popsicles and the rain just pelted down
When the only thing that used to melt was Popsicles and the rain used to pelt down hard


Down on me
And all of it would hit me hard


Make me into more than a goner
Transform me into someone beyond redemption


Perhaps a little bit stronger
Maybe a little bit more resilient


Thicker skin, less needy,
Able to withstand hurt easily and needing less attention from others


And maybe to not bruise so damn easily, but you can't
And maybe not getting hurt so easily, but it's impossible


And I won't
And I won't try to change myself


I want you to help keep me from growing older
I want you to stop me from aging too quickly


Just let me snot on your shoulder
Just let me cry on your shoulder


When all that I'm thinking 'bout is her
When all I can think about is her


Give me everything you got
Give me all your love and support


Don't need drugs cause I can already feel my head rot
I don't need drugs as my mind is already in a bad place


And it won't stop
And it won't go away


It won't stop
It won't go away


It won't stop
It won't go away


It won't stop
It won't go away


Please slow down
Please make everything slower


Please slow down
Please make everything slower


Make it all slow down
Make everything slower


Make it all slow down
Make everything slower


Make it all slow down
Make everything slower

Lyrics:

Sometimes I feel like I wanna go back
To a time before my mind turned black
I miss the way it was
When instead of just my gooey brains
All that melted was popsicles
And the rain just pelted down, down on me

Make me into more than a goner
Perhaps a little bit stronger
Thicker skin, less needy, and maybe to not bruise so damn easily But you can't, and I won't

I want you to help keep me from growing older
Just let me snot on your shoulder
When all that I'm thinkin bout is her, her

Give me everything you've got
Don't need drugs cause I can already feel my head rot
And it won't stop

It won't stop
It won't stop
It won't stop
It won't stop

Please slow down
Please slow down
Make it all slow down
Make it all slow down

Make it all slow down
