The lyrics, centered around the idea that 'this dream isn't feeling sweet', depict the feeling of growing up and being overwhelmed by both how much life has changed and how quickly that change happened. It is an ode to the nostalgia that comes with feeling lost and the innocence of childhood and emphasizes the need for belonging and feeling comfort in a chaotic world. In the chorus, Lorde sings about how laughter until their ribs get tough would never be enough, signifying that no style of comfort nor nostalgia could truly encapsulate the emotion she is feeling and going through. The song captures the feeling of wanting a time before and the desire to reach for the comfort of those memories, no matter how impossible it may be.

Ribs
Lorde Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The drink you spilled all over me
"Lover's Spit" left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old

We can talk it so good
We can make it so divine
We can talk it good

How you wish it would be all the time

The drink you spilled all over me
"Lover's Spit" left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old
The drink you spilled all over me
"Lover's Spit" left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old

This dream isn't feeling sweet
We're reeling through the midnight streets
And I've never felt more alone
It feels so scary, getting old

We can talk it so good
We can make it so divine
We can talk it good
How you wish it would be all the time

This dream isn't feeling sweet
We're reeling through the midnight streets
And I've never felt more alone
It feels so scary, getting old
This dream isn't feeling sweet

We're reeling through the midnight streets
And I've never felt more alone
It feels so scary, getting old

I want 'em back (I want 'em back)
The minds we had (the minds we had)
How all the thoughts (how all the thoughts)
Moved 'round our heads (moved 'round our heads)
I want 'em back (I want 'em back)
The minds we had (the minds we had)
It's not enough to feel the lack
I want 'em back, I want 'em back, I want 'em

You're the only friend I need (you're the only friend I need)
Sharing beds like little kids (sharing beds like little kids)
And laughing 'til our ribs get tough (laughing 'til our ribs get tough)
But that will never be enough (but that will never be enough)
You're the only friend I need (you're the only friend I need)
Sharing beds like little kids (sharing beds like little kids)
And laughing 'til our ribs get tough (laughing 'til our ribs get tough)
But that will never be enough (but that will never be enough)

But that will never be enough
But that will never be enough
But that will never be enough

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ribs by Lorde are a contemplative ode to the anxiety of growing up and the changing circumstances that come with it. The first verse sets the scene of a carefree night tainted by the reminder that time is moving too fast. The chorus follows with a desire to hold onto the feeling of that night forever. The second verse dives even deeper into the fear of growing up and becoming alone. The repeating line, "It feels so scary, getting old," emphasizes the overwhelming dread of the unknown.

The bridge of the song is a mournful remembrance of how the mind used to effortlessly process the world around it. The final verse then mirrors the first, highlighting the intimacy shared with a friend that will never be the same again. The line "Laughing 'til our ribs get tough" strikes a somber tone as it reveals that even joy can't be preserved in time. The overall theme of the song can be summed up as a longing for what was or could have been, a notion that everyone can relate to.

Waw I just realized that the reason this song starts off slow and then she speeds up certain parts and repeats them is because it symbolises the reality of life passing by in front your eyes and the emotions you feels when they think about growing up; the beat speeds up like how your heart rate speeds up while thinking of those thinks and it has a tinge about it that's like you're losing your mind for a second.
Lorde (or whoever came up with the idea of starting slow and speeding up the beat) is a genius!

I feel like this song is that end of highschool feeling. That moment where you realize you are an adult. Now you're a big kid. Its so scary and surreal. I feel like this song really captures that feeling. "Reeling through the midnight streets" it is like riding through a tunnel with the windows open and feeling the air on your skin, through your hair. No words, because words cannot capture the perfectness of that moment.

Damn I need to get into my feelings more often.

If you want another song like this, check out “Class of 2013” by Mitski. Very similar kind of mood, but tells a whole different story that makes you want to scream at the top of your lungs and cry. In a good way though. It makes me want to scream out on the top of a hill and let it all out.

I’m literally wasting my teenage years sitting in my bed all day crying, not getting any sleep and just ruining my life, I just want to feel like a teenage and sneak out with my friends at 3am, go to parties, have my first kiss, even have my first heartbreak if that comes with it, I don’t care I just wish I wasn’t spending my teenage years with no friends and doing nothing :/

Who says that you have to do those things when you’re a teenager? You can party at 23. You can have your first kiss at 24. You can experience heartbreak at 20. Unique and memorable experiences don’t have an age requirement. You don’t have to be young to live a happy life. I believe in you! Keep going! You’ve come so far, and you’re so strong! It’ll get better, I promise. I love you, friend.

This song actually made me realise a few uncomfortable truths about myself and my relationships. I realised that, though I have friends, I have none that I can trust my life with, and be content knowing that they will be willing to sit quietly with no talking needed to understand each other. I’m still waiting for that type of companion to come - one that you can watch the sky with, rely on to understand that you have had a bad day but don’t want to talk, just feel (and visa versa) - but I’m beginning to think that day has passed and I will always be stuck in these friendships that don’t run as deep as I would like to. I’m afraid of opening up myself the older I get, I’m afraid of the lives I could damage if I do make a strong relationship that then goes wrong. I’m afraid of growing up, not realising until too late that I have never felt truly close to another, and I was always alone because of myself.

Simply sitting and waiting for someone to come along and become your platonic soulmate will result in you waiting your whole life in vain. Why not be the person who goes along to someone else and becomes their soulmate? It can feel awkward and difficult at first, but time usually washes away the awkwardness.

I remember listening to this song about a year ago. I was 12 years old and very depressed. I had wished I had the motivation to go hang out with my friends but I didn’t. I would cry to this song, thinking about how I was wasting my life away yet I couldn’t really do anything about it. I now have a better understanding of life and what I’m meant to do here. I now know to focus on the present and not dwell on the past or overthink about the future. I now know to make the most of this short life I have. I only wish others saw that too.

Don’t waste your life if you still have time. If you are going through something, please ask for help. Because I promise you it is so much better. When you have enough time or motivation please ask someone. Try to enjoy your life as it is and don’t take life too seriously. No one makes it out alive anyway.

Uh, this is awkward so if you're reading this sorry in advance but here I go, spilling my personal situation on youtube lol. And it like relates to the son lol, it's not random. Ok, so I have this friend. He was my best friend- he was a brother to me. I had known him forever. In high school, he started to change, and I did too- we kind of grew up. But I grew up in the sense that I matured emotionally, and he matured socially, kind of. And in the end, he changed so much that I didn't recognize him anymore. And I couldn't keep up. We lost touch. He was right in front of me, every day, all the time, and I couldn't see him anymore. And al those memories we had as friends were gone. They're gone. I think that the scariest thing to me, now, is growing up. Growing up, getting old, means changing. And I've learned that I can't. I'm static as everyone keeps moving forward without me. So when Lorde said "It feels so scary getting old, I want it back, the minds we had", I think that I finally understood at least a little of this song.

Reading this comment while listening to this song made me cry because I feel the same way, and I also feel like I am just finding myself and thinking about all the memories I could have made but didn't because I was either too shy or didn't have that many friends, but I feel like everyone I used to be close to turned into people that only care about superficial things, and you can't even make a connection with them anymore.

That was just a mess of words but hopefully it made a little sense 😂

(I’m also spilling my personal business to YouTube but who cares anyway?) i was best friends with this guy since first grade. Our dads work together and are bestfriends. Our moms work at the same company and are bestfriends. We’re close close. Or I guess I should say were. But before that just picture these scenes: riding the Ferris wheel while watching the sun go down over Lake Michigan. Holding hands at a football game while dew gathers around you and your clothes get damp from rolling in the grass. Jumping off the break wall together while holding hands. Walking to the bus stop together every day till the last day of school. Hugging each other at the end of every day. Jumping on the trampoline while laughing together and looking up at the stars. Tubing together while waves pool over you and you use his arm to stable yourself. So many happy moments, so many conversations. So finally. You confess your feelings to him, you love him. And he loves you. You date and in the beginning it’s amazing, so much happiness, a little awkward but still great. Two months in. It’s October 1st. You were supposed to go on a camping trip together but you had soccer. Last night was the first time you said I love you in person. It also happens to be the night that you were cheated on. He kissed two other girls, he told me it was a hug. He also conveniently left out the fact he told everyone there he didn’t love me and I was “weirder than he thought.” I didn’t figure all this out till a week before I broke up with him. He was a dry texter and never responded to my texts. I would be busy sending him paragraphs and he’d reply with a thumbs up. No I’m not kidding. Yes it was the same guy, surprisingly. I decided to break up with him after ten long hard months. It was so hard. I was stuck on all those happy memories, how the hell it went so horribly wrong when it seemed like we were soul mates. Who knows, maybe in another life we could’ve worked it out, but I was done being the problem solver.

@@heyitsbrookie-dw5ge I'm so so sorry, but I'm happy for you that you were brave enough to break up with him. I can relate to the part where you said "i was done being the problem solver" because I've always had that role in other people's lives and I'm trying to stop doing that. I'm sure that you're an amazing person and you'll find someone that will want to solve problems with you, not someone that causes the problems and lets you figure that out. I wish you a really good life <3

I played this song with my boyfriend on New Year's day this year. It was so quiet, we were on the street walking to a convenient store. This music sets the mood it was surreal and amazing.

I am failing school because of several mental problems and lack of motivation in life, my whole life stands on a line. But I am still having fun while im playing videogames until early morning with my brother which is literally the only reason im still here. Im maybe not sneaking out late at night and having a good time outside with friends, things could be way better. But im thankful for what I have. Im maybe wasting so many opportunities but I am doing what makes me happy too.

To all the 13/14 etc year old kids on here: As an 18 year old- cherish every second. You won’t notice when it all gets over. Covid canceled the rest of my senior year super suddenly so I was actually able to feel my childhood slip away from me super quickly and it was honestly super scary and exactly the vibe that can be felt hearing this song, so my only advice is to cherish it

@voedia4793

I'm 14, and I feel like I've matured so much faster than I should've, Sounds kinda weird saying this but here's advice from a 14 year old that can still technically go through a nostalgia "phase" or whatever you wanna call it, cherish ever moment no matter how old you are, because you can never be 18 again, just like I can never be 14 again, you know how they say "live every moment like it's your last one" that is true in a sense, that second you just experienced you can never get back, so live that second like its your last.
