take care
Eden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, how could you be so careless?
I sweat this, I swear
I think I'm losing my voice, I took no time to take care
I smashed my phone, but honestly I feel relieved
You can't reach me, now I can exhale on my own

What were you thinking? That night was a dream
At the top of your lungs, I've heard you scream in your sleep
And I know you don't mean a thing, I just get lost in translation
So, how much is enough gonna take? Yeah

I got a number for you
I call it breaking, yeah
I've got a lover, baby
Don't need what you're giving me
More than what you think
Oh, love ain't love if it ain't rough
But, you're screaming

I've said it all
I thought maybe you'd believe me 'cause I don't
These days it's a cliché, I know
I have no words, no words

And if I could forget you, you know I would leave
I can't help myself from feeling all this is wasted on me
And I love the rain (love!), but I can't live in a storm
I've got more to come
Still learning to grow

What were you thinking? That night was a dream
At the top of your lungs, I hear you screaming, no sleep
And I know you don't mean a thing, I just get lost in translation
So, how much is enough gonna take?




I got a lifetime to wait
Seconds can't bury me

Overall Meaning

In "Take Care" by Eden, the singer expresses his frustration and disappointment with a lover who has been careless in their relationship. He starts by asking how the lover could be so careless, indicating that he is deeply hurt by their actions. He then continues to express his disappointment by stating that he is losing his voice because he didn't take care of himself. This could symbolize him losing the ability to communicate his feelings due to the strain on their relationship.


Eden then goes on to explain how he feels relieved after breaking his phone, as it allows him to exhale and exist on his own without the constant pressure of the outside world. He then recalls a dream where his lover was screaming, and while he knows that his lover didn't mean anything by it, he feels lost in translation. Eden then asks how much more it will take, indicating that he has had enough and is close to breaking point.


Towards the end of the song, Eden explains that he has someone who loves him and that he doesn't need what his current lover is giving him. He states that love isn't love if it isn't rough, but that his current lover is screaming and causing him pain. He then explains that he has no words to describe the hurt he's feeling and that he wishes he could forget his lover. But despite this, he still loves the sound of rain, and he knows that he has more to learn and grow in life.
