Molecules
Hayley Kiyoko Lyrics

Pillars of my heart
The foundation of my emotions and feelings

Everything got shattered in the dark
All my emotions and feelings were destroyed in the darkness of pain and despair

Tried to be evolved
Attempted to improve and develop oneself

Does it really matter at all?
Is self-improvement truly significant in the grand scheme of things?

Feathers on the red bed
A symbol of previous intimate experiences

Messy on the floorboards
Physical evidence of previous intimate experiences

Data in my head
Personal experiences and memories stored in the mind

Gets caught up in the drug stores
Easily lost or forgotten when distracted by external stimuli like drugs

Make me feel again
Bring back emotional sensations and experiences

So what should I do?
An inquiry of what actions should be taken next

All that's left is molecules of you
Memories of past experiences with the person are all that remain

Tried to rearrange
Attempted to reorganize thoughts and emotions

Did you feel that everything was strange?
Asking if the other person experienced the same confusion and uncertainty during the process.

Dancing in the red rain
Metaphorical imagery of a past experience where one found joy and vitality

Tied up to the bed post
A representation of a submissive intimate activity

Falling like a tear stain
Slowly descending and losing one's emotions like a tear rolling down one's face.

Only for your cold ghost
One's physical body remains, while one's 'soul' or presence is gone

I've lost you
The realization that the other person is gone

Keep me wide awake
A request to remain conscious and present

Every cell, I feel your body ache
Feeling emotional pain and physical longing

Can we start the fall?
A desire to allow oneself to fall in love again

Na na na na na na
Vocalizing the feelings of loss and confusion

You, you
A direct reference to the other person who was lost.
