In Bloom
Jay Wile Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sick of the waitin'
You′re taking your time
So I'm getting faded
It's all that I know
End of the night, I lose control
But you tell me it′s alright
Baby it′s alright you're fine
Do you love me?
Why you pull, yeah you pull at my roots?
Do you love me?
Why you do all the things that you do?
In bloom
You got in
Your garden
In bloom
You got in
Your garden
In Jay Wile's song "In Bloom," the artist speaks about his impatience with waiting for something to happen or for someone to reciprocate his feelings. He talks about turning to substances to help him lose control and forget his worries. However, he also acknowledges that the person he's waiting for tells him that everything is alright and that he'll be fine. The chorus of the song asks the question, "Do you love me?" and wonders why the person he's addressings is pulling at his roots and doing things that confuse him. The chorus ends with the phrase "in bloom," possibly symbolizing the growth or blossoming of their relationship despite the confusion and mixed signals.
The song's themes could apply to many different situations, from waiting for love to waiting for success or fulfillment. The use of natural imagery, like roots and a garden, add depth to the lyrics and could represent the complexity of emotions and relationships.
