Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I can't fix myself
You said, "Babe, I miss you
" like it's a cry for help
Do you want me to stay? Do you want me to go?
I think I'm going out of my mind
You want me to fix you
But I can't fix myself (Woah)
In my head, in my head, I might go lights out
In the dark, I hear no sound
Seeing red, seeing red
I might scream out loud
But I can't even talk right now
I'm the only one that really knows you
But you're the only one that can control you
In my head, in my head, I might go lights out
In the dark, I hear no sound
You want me to fix you
But I can't fix myself
You said, "Babe, I miss you
" like it's a cry for help
Do you want me to stay? Do you want me to go?
I think I'm going out of my mind
You want me to fix you
But I can't fix myself (Woah)
I'm in love, I'm in hate
Never know what to say
I hold on way too long
Please don't push away
Where you tryna go with the flow?
But it's froze in the snow
You get high thinking way too low
I'm the only one that really knows you
But you're the only one that can control you
In my head, in my head, I might go lights out
In the dark, I hear no sound
You want me to fix you (Fix you)
But I can't fix myself (Fix myself)
You said, "Babe, I miss you"
(Miss you) , like it's a cry for help
Do you want me to stay?
(Stay) Do you want me to go? (Go)
I think I'm going out of my mind
You want me to fix you
(Fix you) , but I can't fix myself (Woah)
In the night, in the lights
Calling the softness
I'm riding out any day, call it a coffin
Suicide, suicide, always be bluffing
Don't know why, I don't know why
This time, I lost what's mine to find
No way to think without a mind
It go on and on and on
It go on and on and on
You want me to fix you (Fix you)
But I can't fix myself (Fix myself)
You said, "Babe, I miss you"
(Miss you) , like it's a cry for help
Do you want me to stay? Do you want me to go?
I think I'm going out of my mind
You want me to fix you
(Fix you) , but I can't fix myself (Woah
Fix myself)
Let go, I know it's like an earthquake
Let go, I know
It's like an earthquake (Woah)
In JASIAH's song "Earthquake," the lyrics discuss the complicated dynamics of a relationship wherein one partner is struggling with their own problems while also attempting to fix their partner. The first verse establishes this theme with the repeated line "You want me to fix you, but I can't fix myself," emphasizing the singer's own vulnerability and struggle. The chorus repeats this sentiment, with the partner's "I miss you" becoming "a cry for help" and the singer questioning whether they should stay or go. The second verse delves further into the singer's internal struggles, with the lines "I'm in love, I'm in hate, never know what to say / I hold on way too long, please don't push away" suggesting a fear of losing grip on the fragile relationship. The bridge is particularly poignant, with the singer discussing suicide and mental turmoil, but ultimately repeating the chorus's plea that they are unable to fix themselves while being asked to fix someone else.
Overall, "Earthquake" is a powerful representation of the difficulties inherent in relationships where both partners are struggling. It highlights the importance of open communication and boundaries, and the danger of trying to take on too much responsibility for someone else's well-being. The song also touches on themes of mental illness and the challenges of speaking about one's own vulnerabilities, making it a poignant and important addition to the discourse around relationships and mental health.
