Glow
M.I.D.O.R. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're just a girl that's everything not in my world
Cause I stop, and you go
And I run, too slow but let me go, go, go
It's in the palm of your hands
If you threw it away it would be just to say you did
I should have known, not to trust you You were too good to be true
And then your kiss left a taste on my lips
And your eyes how they glow
I've got a question for you, how many hearts does it take for you to get through just one city
Cause I stop, and you go
And I run, too slow but let me go, go, go
It's in the palm of your hands
If you threw it away it would be just to say you did
I should have known, not to trust you
You were too good to be true
And then your kiss left a taste on my lips
And your eyes how they glow
I'm taking back what's mine
You took it from me and I want it back
What is rightfully mine
You'll never see our faces again
You're feeling cornered
Try being the victims of your lies
You say it's torture
I think it's time for you to go
It's really time for you to go
Woooaahhhh
The lyrics to M.I.D.O.R.'s song Glow describe the story of a man who is constantly conflicted in his relationship with a girl. He recognizes that they are vastly different people and cannot seem to reconcile their differences. He feels that he moves too slowly for her, while she seemingly moves too quickly for him. Despite this tension, the man still finds himself enamored with the girl, making it difficult for him to fully let go. However, he eventually realizes that the girl is not trustworthy, that she was too good to be true, and he feels betrayed. Even though he enjoyed her kiss and was drawn to the way her eyes glow, he acknowledges that he needs to take back what's rightfully his and that it's time for her to go.
One possible interpretation of the song is that the man is struggling with issues of control and manipulation in his relationship. He recognizes that he cannot control the girl, despite his desire to do so, and is ultimately hurt by her actions. Yet, he still feels a sense of attachment to her, which is reflected in his emotional turmoil throughout the song. The mention of the girl's eyes glowing multiple times could suggest a sort of supernatural force at play in the relationship, adding a mystical or eerie quality to the song.
The chorus, "it's in the palm of your hands, if you threw it away it would be just to say you did," highlights the idea that the girl holds all the power in the relationship, and that he acknowledges this fact but is still struggling to let go. This struggle is represented by the repeated line "cause I stop, and you go, and I run too slow but let me go, go, go," which highlights the push-pull dynamic of their relationship.
