Jaded
Ghaderi & Ikus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Falling down on me through in the middle night
And I can't erase the hurt that remains
Of what we became there in the rain
It left with the storm
But it still goes on and still flames
As I drown in this jaded rain
I can feel the thought of every memory
And I can't erase the hurt that remains
Of what we became there in the rain
It left with the storm
But it still goes on and still flames
As I drown in this jaded rain
I can feel the thought of every memory
As it pours in every single part of me
And I can't erase the hurt that remains
Of what we became there in the rain
It left with the storm
But it still goes on and still flames
As I drown in this jaded rain
The lyrics of Ghaderi & Ikus's song Jaded portray a sense of longing and pain for what once was but now is lost. The opening lines "I can feel the drips of an intended fire falling down on me through in the middle night" suggests that the singer is haunted by the past and cannot seem to escape the memories that they have held on to. The repetition of "And I can't erase the hurt that remains" throughout the song emphasizes the fact that the emotional scars from the past continue to torment the singer.
The reference to "what we became there in the rain" suggests that this pain and heartbreak is tethered to a specific event or relationship that has since ended. Despite the end of this relationship or event, the pain lingers on, hence "it still goes on and still flames, as I drown in this jaded rain". The use of the metaphor of drowning emphasizes the depth and intensity of the singer's pain. The repetition of the same lines in the second verse intensifies the sense of emotional turmoil and reinforces the idea that the same thoughts and feelings continue to plague the singer.
Overall, Ghaderi & Ikus's Jaded captures the pain and struggle of moving on from the past, highlighting how the emotional trauma of past events can continue to affect an individual long after the event has ended.
