eaSE mY MInd
Hayley Kiyoko Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hear you like a whisper
In the corner of my lovesick thoughts
Like sand through a filter
Trying to capture what time forgot
I need you to be here
I need to see you crystal clear
Like diamonds in a coal mine
In the moonlight when you appear

Girl ease my mind
Liquefy
I need you mine
Can't fake it
'Cause you haunt me, baby
'Cause you haunt me, baby

I feel you in the wind chill
And it's so real, straight through my bones
I can only just imagine
Your passion, you take me home
I need you to be here
I need to see you crystal clear
Like rubies in the red night
In the dark sky when you appear

Girl ease my mind
Liquefy
I need you mine
Can't fake it
'Cause you haunt me, baby
'Cause you haunt me, baby

Haunt me to my grave
Don't you ever fade away
Seeing every delusion
I don't want to face
You keep me up
You keep me up at night

Girl ease my mind
Liquefy
I need you mine
Can't fake it
'Cause you haunt me, baby
'Cause you haunt me, baby

Girl ease my mind
Liquefy
I need you mine
Can't fake it




'Cause you haunt me, baby
'Cause you haunt me, baby

Overall Meaning

The song "eaSE mY MInd" by Hayley Kiyoko is a heartfelt plea to a lover who is constantly on the singer's mind. Kiyoko uses metaphorical language throughout the song to express her desire to see and feel her lover's presence. The opening lyrics, "I hear you like a whisper/ In the corner of my lovesick thoughts/ Like sand through a filter/ Trying to capture what time forgot," suggest that the lover is distant and elusive, almost slipping away from her grasp.


Kiyoko then pleads with her lover to "be here" and "crystal clear," comparing her to "diamonds in a coal mine/ In the moonlight when you appear." The contrast between diamonds and coal symbolizes the brightness and purity of her lover's presence in contrast to the darkness and obscurity of the coal mine.


Throughout the song, Kiyoko uses sensory language to evoke the feeling of her lover's presence. She feels her lover's presence in the "wind chill" and imagines their "passion" taking her home. The chorus, which repeats the lines "Girl ease my mind/ Liquefy/ I need you mine/ Can't fake it/ 'Cause you haunt me, baby," emphasizes the depth of Kiyoko's longing for her lover, who she experiences as a haunting presence that cannot be ignored.


Overall, "eaSE mY MInd" is a powerful expression of yearning and desire, using powerful imagery and sensory language to evoke the feeling of longing for someone who is not physically present.
