Ladybug Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause I miss the night we talked till our eyes turned red
Feels like we grew up together
Feels like i've known you forever
I put your picture up on the left side of my bed
Cause I take the left side every night while I go to bed
I miss the days before 2010
I get, I get, I get
Talking, but it's way too loud
I get lost inside the sound
Talking, but it's way too loud
Way too loud
I got my sneakers soaked in the high tide at the sea
cause I had to find the perfect seashells at the beach
And I was scared before I gave you them then
but I'm glad I did it I would do it again
I get, I get, I get
Talking, but it's way too loud
I get lost inside the sound
Talking, but it's way too loud
Way too loud
I get, I get, I get
Talking, but it's way too loud
I get lost inside the sound
Talking, but it's way too loud
Way too loud
"Ladybug's Song" is a nostalgic and heartfelt track that reflects on a past relationship and the emotions tied to it. The lyrics capture the singer's longing to go back to a time when they felt connected and close to the person they are singing about. The line "Feels like we grew up together, feels like I've known you forever" suggests that this relationship was significant and deep, perhaps even shaping the singer's identity.
The mention of putting the person's picture on the left side of their bed indicates the intimate nature of their connection. By associating the left side of the bed with the person, it suggests that this relationship was a constant presence in their life, even in their sleep. The reference to missing the days before 2010 further emphasizes the intensity of their connection, as the singer can't recall any memories before that time, implying that their life truly began when they met this person.
The second verse adds another layer to the song, shifting to a more playful and sentimental tone. The image of getting sneakers soaked in the high tide at the sea to find perfect seashells at the beach reflects the singer's willingness to go to great lengths to impress and cherish the person. It shows their vulnerability and the courage it took to open up and give the seashells as a gift. The final line of the verse, "but I'm glad I did it I would do it again," suggests that despite any initial fear or uncertainty, the singer has no regrets about their actions and would repeat them in a heartbeat.
The repeated chorus of "Talking, but it's way too loud, I get lost inside the sound, way too loud" serves as a metaphor for the overwhelming emotions experienced in this relationship. It conveys the intensity and the difficulty in finding the right words to express oneself when the feelings are so strong. The loudness of the metaphorical sound hints at the passion and impact of their connection.
Overall, "Ladybug's Song" is a bittersweet reflection on a past relationship and the enduring emotions attached to it. It encapsulates the longing, nostalgia, and profound connection the singer feels towards this person.

I bought a ticket down to your place again
I made the effort to travel to your location once more
Cause I miss the night we talked till our eyes turned red
Because I long for the occasion when we conversed deeply until our eyes were teary
Feels like we grew up together
It seems as if we have experienced a shared growth and maturation
Feels like i've known you forever
It feels as though our acquaintance has spanned an eternity
I put your picture up on the left side of my bed
I hung your photograph on the left side of my sleeping area
Cause I take the left side every night while I go to bed
Because I consistently choose the left side as I lay down to sleep each night
I miss the days before 2010
I yearn for the time period prior to the year 2010
because I can't remember any of them
due to my inability to recall any specific memories from that time
I get, I get, I get
I experience, I experience, I experience
Talking, but it's way too loud
Engaging in conversation, yet the volume is excessively high
I get lost inside the sound
I become disoriented within the overwhelming noise
Way too loud
The volume is excessively loud
I got my sneakers soaked in the high tide at the sea
I immersed my shoes in the powerful waves of the ocean
cause I had to find the perfect seashells at the beach
as I was determined to discover flawless seashells along the shore
And I was scared before I gave you them then
And I was apprehensive before presenting those seashells to you at that time
but I'm glad I did it I would do it again
however, I am content that I took that action and would be willing to repeat it
I get, I get, I get
I experience, I experience, I experience
Talking, but it's way too loud
Engaging in conversation, yet the volume is excessively high
I get lost inside the sound
I become disoriented within the overwhelming noise
Talking, but it's way too loud
Engaging in conversation, yet the volume is excessively high
Way too loud
The volume is excessively loud
I get, I get, I get
I experience, I experience, I experience
Talking, but it's way too loud
Engaging in conversation, yet the volume is excessively high
I get lost inside the sound
I become disoriented within the overwhelming noise
Talking, but it's way too loud
Engaging in conversation, yet the volume is excessively loud
Way too loud
The volume is excessively loud
