Chemicals
JVNA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don′t know what I see in you
You're like a drug that I abuse
Filling me with toxicity
I′m in a dream, you're all I see

Under the chemicals, the chemicals, the chemicals, the chemicals
Under the chemicals, I can't escape from you
Can′t stop the chemicals, the chemicals, the chemicals, the chemicals
Under the chemi-chemi-, chemi-, chemi-chemi-, chemi-chemi-
Can′t stop the chemi-chemicals

Chem-chem-chem-
Chem-chem-chem-
Chem-chem-chem-
Chem-chem-chem-
Chemicals
Chem-chem-chem-, chemicals
Chem-chem-chem-, chemicals
Chem-chem-chem-, chemicals
Under the chemi-chemi-, chemi-, chemi-chemi-, chemi-chemi-
Can't stop the chemi-chemicals

La-la, la-la
La-la-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la-la, la-la

We both share the wrong kind of love
Your loyalty isn′t enough

Don't stop the chemi-chemi-, chemi-, chemi-chemicals
Chemi-chemi-, chemi-, chemi-chemicals
Chemi-chemi-, chemi-, chemi-chemicals
Don′t stop the chemi-chemicals





Don't stop the chemi-chemicals
Don′t stop the chemi-chemicals

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of JVNA's song Chemicals explore a toxic and addictive relationship. The singer expresses uncertainty about their feelings for the other person, comparing them to a drug that she has become addicted to. The drug reference is a metaphor for the other person's addictive nature and how the relationship is wreaking havoc on her senses. She feels trapped, unable to escape from the cycle of abuse and intense feelings for the person, who is the only thing she sees in her dreams.


The chorus features the repeated phrase “under the chemicals” which creates a feeling of being submerged in something all-consuming and overpowering. She acknowledges that she is unable to escape from this feeling and seems almost resigned to it. The song explores themes of love, addiction and toxicity, highlighting how easy it is to become addicted to a person, even if they are not good for us.


In summary, Chemicals is a song about a toxic and dangerous relationship that the singer can't seem to escape from. It tells a story of addiction to a person, much like someone may become addicted to chemically addictive substances, and explores the harm and turmoil that such a relationship can cause.
