Dissolve
JoJo Lyrics

You
Referring to the person the singer is addressing.

Scrollin' through your text messages
Engaged in reading their text messages.

Oh, no, no
Expressing frustration or disappointment.

It's drizzlin' outside, but it's stormin' in my mind
Using weather metaphors to describe the artist's emotional turmoil.

And the clouds have found their way to my tear ducts
Suggesting the artist is crying due to their emotional state.

No, I can't keep holdin' on, 'cause the waves are way too strong
Feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope with the intensity of their emotions.

And way too deep now
Indicating that their emotions have reached a profound level.

Don't wanna get all up in your face
Preferring not to confront or disturb the person they are addressing.

I'm the one who needs change
Expressing a desire for personal growth or transformation.

I just wanna dissolve for a minute
Yearning for a temporary escape or release from their emotional burden.

And I that will solve nothin'
Acknowledging that temporary avoidance does not provide a solution.

I'll afford it at all costs
Willing to pay any price to experience that momentary relief.

'Til the sun's down and the dreams come
Awaiting the end of the day and hoping for a peaceful night's sleep.

And I'm singing
Finding solace or comfort in music.

I just wanna know if you ever really loved me at all
Seeking clarification about the sincerity of the affection they received.

'Cause everything is different now
Noticing a significant change in their relationship or circumstances.

And it makes me feel like I could dissolve
Feeling emotionally fragile or vulnerable due to the aforementioned changes.

Trying not to think about it
Attempting to avoid dwelling on the situation.

But I need more than just a new distraction
Realizing that mere distractions won't provide the necessary emotional fulfillment.

Now you should say something back 'fore I vanish into these walls, oh
Desiring a response from the person they are addressing before withdrawing emotionally.

Baby, baby, baby, baby
Affectionate or endearing terms used to address the person.

I don't wanna just ghost on you, float away, babe
Expressing a desire to avoid abruptly leaving or disappearing without explanation.

My thunder's loud and the lightning's gettin' even brighter, baby
Comparing their emotional turmoil to a storm, with increasing intensity.

Yeah, it's a shame from all that we wasted
Expressing regret for the investment of time and emotions that have gone to waste.

Did you ever let up from your mouth?
Questioning whether the person verbally expressed their true feelings.

Not a sound, no warning, nothin'
Feeling blindsided or unaware of any signs or indications.

Do you want me to go?
Questioning whether the person wants the singer to leave or distance themselves.

You were holdin' it in
Implying that the person concealed their true emotions or intentions.

When you should have been holdin' it down for me
Expressing disappointment for not receiving the support or loyalty expected.

I just wanna know if you ever really loved me at all (ooh-ooh)
Reiterating the need for confirmation or clarification about their past love.

'Cause everything is different now
Acknowledging the profound changes that have occurred.

And it makes me feel like I could dissolve (yeah)
Feeling emotionally vulnerable and on the verge of breaking down.

Trying not to think about it
Struggling to avoid dwelling on the situation.

But I need more than just a new distraction
Recognizing the need for something more substantial than temporary diversions.

Now you should say something back 'fore I vanish into these walls (you should say something)
Requesting a response from the person before withdrawing further into their emotional walls.

Oh, you'll never see
Implying that the person will never see or understand their emotional turmoil.

Never see me again
Suggesting that the singer will distance themselves completely from the person.

Trying not to think about
Struggling to avoid contemplating.

How you don't think about me at all, oh
Expressing hurt and disappointment at the person's apparent lack of concern or thoughts.

Oh
An exclamation expressing various emotions or thoughts.

Mm
An interjection conveying a contemplative or reflective state.

Oh, oh
An exclamation or interjection emphasizing or intensifying a feeling or statement.
