Starlet
Incense Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Loneliness takes place for you now
I swear I would do anything
To make you feel just like that.
If you see him again
Tell him he is on a flash track.
Long gone days
Still moving to fast.
I swear I would do anything
To make you feel just like that.





Retail the story
And I swear I see you again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Incense's song Starlet seem to speak of a deep sense of regret and longing for a lost love or someone who has become distant from the singer. The opening line, "Loneliness takes place for you now," suggests that the person being addressed is feeling alone and possibly struggling with something. The singer then expresses a desire to do anything to make this person happy and help them overcome their loneliness.


The second line, "I swear I would do anything to make you feel just like that," emphasizes the singer's commitment and dedication to helping this person. They want to do whatever it takes to make them feel better and alleviate their pain.


The third line, "If you see him again, tell him he is on a flash track," is a bit more enigmatic. It's possible that the person being addressed has been seeing someone else who is not good for them, and the singer wants to warn them about this. The use of the phrase "flash track" suggests something that is moving quickly or dangerously.


The next lines seem to reflect on the passage of time and how it can feel like things are moving too fast. "Long gone days, still moving too fast" is a poignant reminder that some things are hard to let go of and move on from.


The song's chorus brings us back to the singer's desire to help this person. "I swear I would do anything to make you feel just like that" is repeated, emphasizing the intensity of their feelings.


In the final lines of the song, the singer seems to be holding out hope that they will see this person again. "Retail the story and I swear I see you again" almost sounds like a mantra or a wish, a way of keeping the memory of the person alive and hoping that they will return.
