Bikes
FLØRE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the silvery moonlight
Our shadows collide
Just take me right into the night
Burn it all to the bones
This house never been a home
All I want is to feel fine
When the night fades will you run
Or will you stay?
When the day breaks will you run
Or will you stay?
Take me away
Go and find a place
Where we can hide
Where we can sort our troubled minds
Uuh, uuh, uuh
Sort our troubled minds
Uuh, uuh, uuh
There is blood on these bikes
And it still hurts sometimes
How many memories do I have to kill to stay alive?
Rode on the back of your bike
Thought you were my lover for life
But I was just a waste of time
I'm just a waste
When the night fades will you run
Or will you stay?
When the day breaks will you runOr will you stay?
Uuh, uuh, uuh
Sort our troubled minds
Uuh, uuh, uuh
Nothing's been a waste when it still leaves a taste, right?
Nothing's been a waste when it still leaves a taste, right.
But yours just bitter
And I'm just a waste of time
So how am I still alive?
FLØRE's song "Bikes" tells a poignant story of lost love and emotional turmoil. The opening lines "In the silvery moonlight, Our shadows collide" set the scene of two lovers meeting at night. But as the lyrics unravel, it becomes clear that this is not a happy story. The singer wants to escape her unhappy home and run away with her lover to "where we can hide, where we can sort our troubled minds."
However, as the song progresses, we learn that this relationship was not all it seemed. The line "There is blood on these bikes, And it still hurts sometimes" suggests that there has been a painful event or breakup. The singer reflects on how she thought her lover was "my lover for life" but now feels like "just a waste of time." She questions whether her lover will stay with her as the night and day break.
The chorus of "Sort our troubled minds" is a poignant plea for help in finding peace and freedom from pain. The final lines "Nothing's been a waste when it still leaves a taste, right? But yours just bitter, And I'm just a waste of time, So how am I still alive?" show a sense of hopelessness and despair at the situation, but also a determination to keep going.
Overall, "Bikes" is a powerful and emotional song that touches on themes of lost love, emotional pain, and the desire for peace and escape.

In the silvery moonlight
Under the illumination of the pale moonlight
Our shadows collide
The shapes cast by our bodies merge
Just take me right into the night
Escort me into the dark night
Burn it all to the bones
Incinerate everything until only ashes remain
This house never been a home
This dwelling place never felt like a place of belonging
All I want is to feel fine
The only thing I desire is to feel content
When the night fades will you run
Once the darkness vanishes, will you depart?
Or will you stay?
Will you remain?
Take me away
Transport me somewhere else
Go and find a place
Discover a location
Where we can hide
Where we can conceal ourselves
Where we can sort our troubled minds
A place where we can organize our conflicted thoughts and emotions
There is blood on these bikes
These bicycles are stained with blood
And it still hurts sometimes
Occasionally, the pain is still present
How many memories do I have to kill to stay alive?
How many recollections must I eradicate to persist?
Rode on the back of your bike
Mounted on the rear of your bicycle
Thought you were my lover for life
Believed you were my lifelong partner
But I was just a waste of time
However, I was merely an unproductive undertaking
I'm just a waste
I have no significant value
Nothing's been a waste when it still leaves a taste, right?
Is not everything worthwhile if it leaves an impression?
But yours just bitter
However, your effect is unpleasant
So how am I still alive?
Then how am I still existing?
