Amelia
Conner Youngblood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As you left me standing, burning in the cold
With bioluminescence running through my veins
I say, "never again, no, never again"
Amelia, you make me nervous
Hold me now; hold me now
And lately I've been without purpose
The sharks are circling all that smells of blood
As they tear apart the pieces, there's no need to rush
But, oh apricity, I feel it through your skin
Now I'm broken down and basic, I say, "Never again"
Amelia, you make me nervous
Hold me now; hold me now
And lately I've been without purpose
Hold me now; hold me now
In the song "Amelia" by Conner Youngblood, the lyrics express the feeling of being left behind in the cold after a relationship has ended. The singer uses the word "apricity" to describe the warmth and sunlight that he once felt with his significant other, but now that warmth has turned cold. He compares himself to bioluminescence, a phenomenon where organisms emit light, suggesting that his feelings are intense and vivid even in the midst of darkness.
The chorus expresses the singer's vulnerability and desire for affection from his significant other. He feels nervous and without purpose without her. The metaphor of sharks smelling blood suggests that there are other people who are willing to take what he once had, but he is now left alone and vulnerable. Despite this, he still feels the warmth of his partner's touch, but it only serves to emphasize his brokenness and the impossibility of repairing their relationship.
Overall, the lyrics of "Amelia" convey a sense of loneliness and loss after a relationship has ended. The imagery used throughout the song illustrates the intensity of the singer's emotions and the difficulty of moving on from a past love.
