CLEANSE
Haste Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I, just,
This will be the last time,
If you leave
I, just want to fall.
This will be the last time,
If you leave,
I want to close my eyes and imagine
What is going on around me
As I fall through the sky
This will come back to me a thousand times
The sound of the wind would cripple
The hearing of any other noise,
Violently I would reach the thick, gray clouds
And take a deep breath,
If you leave I,
I've washed away sins from my mind
Time, this all will be just wasted time
The cool air would fill my lungs,
You say it's hardly bleeding
I would feel the water droplets form on my face
As I raced downward toward earth
But you can't see as closely
As I can feel faster and faster,
We have all bled before,
I would plummet toward the ground
We all know it heals and goes away
It would be so cold
You can't understand why I want it to stay
Chill bumps would cover my ice cold body
Thoughts of how great things change
Are at the moment,
And if your promise not to try
Would dominate my mind thoughts
Of the future gone forever
I promise worries of what has happened
Will be left in the clouds
The clouds would rain those worries somewhere else,
This time, strange though,




I think I hear traffic
I won't hurt you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Cleanse" by Haste describes the feeling of loss and despair when facing the end of a relationship. The singer acknowledges that this may be the last time they see their partner and they express their desire to escape and fall away from their pain. The singer makes peace with the fact that pain may come back to them repeatedly, but it is necessary for them to cleanse their mind of their sins and move on. Imagery of falling through the sky is used to describe the singer's descent into their emotions, and the freedom they would feel when they detach themselves from their pain. The song also talks of the healing power of time by saying “We all know it heals and goes away,” and implores the listener to make a promise not to try to hold onto the past.


Throughout the song, the singer uses vivid imagery to describe what they would experience if they were to fall from the sky. They speak of feeling the cool air fill their lungs and water droplets forming on their face as they race to the ground. The fall is used as a metaphor for the singer's emotional state, with the release from pain and the feeling of liberation providing the same rush as falling through the sky. Ultimately, the singer comes to realize that the hurt caused by their past relationship will eventually become a distant memory, and they will learn to let go of the pain.


Line by Line Meaning

I, just,
I am standing here, just waiting and thinking


This will be the last time,
This is going to be the final moment of my life


If you leave
If you choose to leave me behind


I, just want to fall.
I just want to let go and experience the fall


This will be the last time,
This is going to be the final moment of my life


If you leave,
If you choose to leave me behind


I want to close my eyes and imagine
I want to shut my eyes and picture things


What is going on around me
All of the things happening around me


As I fall through the sky
As I drop through the air


This will come back to me a thousand times
I will recall this moment many times


The sound of the wind would cripple
The noise of the wind would deafen


The hearing of any other noise,
Making it impossible to hear anything else


Violently I would reach the thick, gray clouds
I would blast through the thick, dreary clouds


And take a deep breath,
I would breathe in deeply


If you leave I,
If you go away from me


I've washed away sins from my mind
I have absolved my mind of sins


Time, this all will be just wasted time
Time will dissipate everything I feel now


The cool air would fill my lungs,
My lungs would be packed with the fresh air


You say it's hardly bleeding
You say that there is minimal injury


I would feel the water droplets form on my face
I would sense the water droplets dripping on my face


As I raced downward toward earth
As I raced down to the ground


But you can't see as closely
You cannot understand so close


As I can feel faster and faster,
As I can experience the acceleration more deeply


We have all bled before,
All humans have bled at some point


We all know it heals and goes away
We all know that our injuries heal and vanish


It would be so cold
The temperature would be extremely low


You can't understand why I want it to stay
You cannot comprehend why I wish to keep it


Chill bumps would cover my ice cold body
I would feel goosebumps on my frigid body


Thoughts of how great things change
Reflections on how wonderful things evolve


Are at the moment,
I am currently thinking about them


And if your promise not to try
If you pledge not to make an attempt


Would dominate my mind thoughts
It would occupy my thoughts completely


Of the future gone forever
Of a future that is lost forever


I promise worries of what has happened
I pledge that I'm not concerned about the past


Will be left in the clouds
All the concerns will vanish into oblivion


The clouds would rain those worries somewhere else,
The clouds will rain all cares to another place


This time, strange though,
This time, odd as things may appear


I think I hear traffic
I believe I detect the sound of vehicles


I won't hurt you
I won't cause you pain

@@hermie9737 Like the pbe has caught a meaningful % of the bugs..... lmao

@rupalthaus7071

@@hermie9737 I'd agree with you, but Riot has a long history of letting things go to live even after people testing it on PBE and warning them about the bug. So, I wouldn't doubt if anything like this happened again.
