Reanimator
Joji - Nectar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The sun is not the brightest thing
The choir sings to an empty world of finer things
Even though it burns, you drown and sink
You know I am

Washing over you
Washing over you
It's not up to me
But it's alright if it makes you feel good
You can do this all night, it's not up to me
But it's alright if it makes you feel good
You can do this all night, but it's not up to me
But it's alright if it makes you feel good




You can do this all night, but it's not up to me
But it's alright, does it make you feel good all night?

Overall Meaning

In the first paragraph, the lyrics suggest a sense of desolation and emptiness. The sun, typically associated with brightness and warmth, is described as not being the brightest thing. This could symbolize a lack of hope or positivity in the world. The choir singing to an empty world of finer things implies that even though they are producing beautiful music, there is no one there to appreciate it or to partake in the joys and pleasures of life. The line "Even though it burns, you drown and sink" could be interpreted as a juxtaposition of conflicting emotions. It conveys the idea that even in the midst of pain or discomfort, there is a desire to escape or be consumed by something greater.


The second paragraph seems to reflect a sense of resignation and acceptance. The repetition of the phrase "It's not up to me" suggests a lack of control over the situation or circumstances. Despite this, the lyrics offer the reassurance that it's alright if something brings pleasure or makes one feel good, regardless of whether it is within their control. This can be interpreted as an acknowledgement that sometimes we cannot control the external factors that influence our emotions, but it's still valid to seek and find happiness where possible. The repetition of the line "You can do this all night" reinforces the idea of perseverance and the willingness to continue pursuing what brings joy, even if the outcome is uncertain.


In the third paragraph, the lyrics reiterate the notion that the singer's influence or control is limited. However, the emphasis on feeling good and doing something all night suggests a desire for pleasure and enjoyment. Although it may not be within the singer's power to grant this, the acceptance that it's alright if it makes someone feel good implies a kind of permission or encouragement to embrace what brings happiness, regardless of external factors. The repeated question "But it's alright, does it make you feel good all night?" highlights the importance of personal fulfillment and suggests that the singer values the well-being and satisfaction of the listener.


Overall, these lyrics appear to capture a complex mix of emotions surrounding a lack of control and the search for personal satisfaction. They touch on themes of isolation, the human capacity for pleasure, and the desire for connection and meaning in a world that may feel empty. The repetitive nature of certain phrases emphasizes the cyclical nature of human experience and the persistent pursuit of joy even in challenging circumstances.

[Verse: Joji]
The sun is not the brightest thing
The choir sings
To an empty world of finer things
Even though it burns, you drown and sink
You know I am
Washing over you
Washing over you

[Chorus: Yves Tumor]
It's not up to me
But it's alright if it makes you feel good
You can do this all night, it's not up to me
But it's alright if it makes you feel good
You can do this all night, but it's not up to me
But it's alright if it makes you feel good
You can do this all night, but it's not up to me
But it's alright, does it make you feel good all night?

[Verso: Joji]
O sol não é a coisa mais brilhante
O coro canta
Para um mundo vazio de coisas melhores
Mesmo que queime, você se afoga e afunda
Você sabe que eu sou
Lavando sobre você
Lavando sobre você

[Refrão: Tumor de Yves]
Não cabe a mim
Mas está tudo bem se te faz sentir bem
Você pode fazer isso a noite toda, não depende de mim
Mas está tudo bem se te faz sentir bem
Você pode fazer isso a noite toda, mas não depende de mim
Mas está tudo bem se te faz sentir bem
Você pode fazer isso a noite toda, mas não depende de mim
Mas está tudo bem, isso te faz sentir bem a noite toda?
