Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh, I wrote your constellation into the sky
S-s-suns at night
We're out late, at 4 AM
He says, "how's the weather, baby?
How you've been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
We're out late at 4 AM
He says, "how's the weather, baby?
How you've been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
They never doubt it at 4 AM
4 AM, 4 AM, falling down again
Unraveling
Ooh, Aphrodite
I wrote your constellation into the sky, ooh
S-s-suns at night
We're out late, at 4 AM
He says, "how's the weather, baby?
How you've been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
They never doubt it at 4 AM
We're out late at 4 AM
He says, "how's the weather, baby?
How you've been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
They never doubt it at 4 AM
4 AM, 4 AM, falling down again
We're out late, at 4 AM
He says, "how's the weather, baby?
How you've been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
They never doubt it at 4 AM
We're out late at 4 AM
He says, "how's the weather, baby?
How you've been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
They never doubt it at 4 AM
4 AM, 4 AM, 4 AM, 4 AM
4 AM, 4 AM, 4 AM, 4 AM
4 AM, 4 AM, falling down again
4 AM, 4 AM
I'm out late at 4 AM, yeah (4 AM, 4 AM)
I'm out late at 4 AM, yeah (4 AM, 4 AM)
Falling 4 AM, oh, oh
Falling down again, falling down again
Ah, oh
In "4æm" by Grimes & i_o, the lyrics depict a late-night encounter with someone, possibly a love interest, at 4 AM. The mention of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty, adds a mythical and ethereal quality to the song. The singer sings about writing the other person's constellation into the sky, suggesting a deep connection or admiration for them. The repetition of "s-s-suns at night" adds to the dreamlike and surreal atmosphere.
The chorus emphasizes the late-night setting and the uncertainty of the future. The person asks how the weather is and how the other person has been, showing a caring and concerned tone. The line "You're gonna get sick, you don't know when" can be seen as a metaphor for the unpredictability and risks involved in relationships. Despite the potential challenges, they never doubt their connection at 4 AM, implying a strong bond that transcends the late hour.
The repetition of "falling down again" in the bridge could suggest a cycle or pattern of emotional turmoil. It could also symbolize the vulnerability and intensity of late-night encounters, where emotions can run high.
Overall, "4æm" explores themes of late-night connections, deep admiration, and the uncertainties and risks involved in relationships.
