Swirl
I M U R Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could not tell you anything that was happening
But now I let it out, take it in, let it go
Cause no one needs to know
And now I let it out, breathe you in, take it slow
Cause we both need to know
We had nothing to lose
And so I smoked the devil's lettuce while you finished off that booze
You said who cares about their views
I could take away your blues
Let's forget about it all for one night, and see what happens
But now I let it out, take it in, let it go
Cause no one needs to know
And now I let it out, breathe you in, take it slow
Cause we both need to know
Red lips, little bit of curls
Soft skin, you make my mind swirl
The song "Swirl" by I M U R is a relatable and heartfelt ballad about growing up and letting go. The opening lines, "Girl I remember when, I was eleven and
I could not tell you anything that was happening," evoke a sense of nostalgia and innocence, with the singer reminiscing about a simpler time. However, as the song progresses, this tone shifts to one of introspection and acceptance. The chorus, "But now I let it out, take it in, let it go, 'cause no one needs to know," encapsulates the idea of letting go of past worries and mistakes and focusing on the present moment.
The three stanzas after the chorus portray a relatable scene of two individuals letting loose and forgetting about their worries for a night. They indulge in "the devil's lettuce" and booze, disregarding societal norms and questioning others' opinions. This shows a sense of vulnerability and lack of inhibition that can often lead to more meaningful connections. The final lines, "Red lips, little bit of curls, soft skin, you make my mind swirl," depict the singer's infatuation with the other individual, emphasizing the power of attraction and chemistry.
Overall, "Swirl" is a song that captures the essence of growing up and coming to terms with life's uncertainties. The lyrics offer a sense of comfort and understanding, encouraging listeners to let go and enjoy the present moment.

Girl I remember when, I was eleven and
I could not tell you anything that was happening
Looking back at my younger self, there's a sense of naivety and innocence; I was clueless about the things happening around me.
But now I let it out, take it in, let it go
Cause no one needs to know
And now I let it out, breathe you in, take it slow
Cause we both need to know
At this moment, I am releasing my emotions, taking both the good and the bad experiences, and letting the past go. It's our secret; we don't have to tell anyone. I am opening my heart to you at my own pace, and we both need to feel the security of our bond.
We chose not to have to choose
We had nothing to lose
And so I smoked the devil's lettuce while you finished off that booze
You said who cares about their views
I could take away your blues
Let's forget about it all for one night, and see what happens
We refuse to be caged by society's standards, and we have no regrets. As you drank alcohol, I indulged in marijuana, but we both have each other's backs. You don't care about anyone else's opinions, and I want to alleviate any pain you feel. Let's live for the moment and let love take its course.
Red lips, little bit of curls
Soft skin, you make my mind swirl
You have this irresistible beauty with your luscious lips and curly hair, and your skin is silky-smooth. You bewitch me, rendering me in a trance-like state, and my mind is reeling with thoughts of you.
