Magnolia
M2U Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your lie lies on frozen lips
as pale petals 'bout to fall off.
Hopefully I'll get used to this
hoax that our lovemade.

Wind whines through broken tips
as our memories die off.
Hopefully you'll get used to my
hugs - meaning good-bye.

Loves me, loves me not.
Tried to get a rise out of
magnolia petals but
soon scattered them over you.
Watch me fall & drop away.
-Dropped me bad.

Full of tears shall be stream.
Life ends up La cri mo sa
Shattered heart, burnt my life out.
Why you still my remedy.

Loves me, loves me not.
Tried to get a rise out of
magnolia petals but
soon scattered them over you.
Watch me fall & drop away.





Hear me cry,
Our love's dead dried.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to M2U's song "Magnolia" are filled with imagery of petal-like lies, broken memories and shattered hearts. The singer addresses a former lover, describing the hope he or she had for adjusting to the "hoax" that their love had become. The frozen lips and broken tips of petals suggest a relationship that was once alive with passion but has now withered away. The chorus features a game of "loves me, loves me not" played with magnolia petals, symbolizing the fragility of their love and the inevitability of its end.


The second verse continues to describe the end of the relationship, with the singer longing for their former partner to accept his hugs as a final goodbye. The bridge is particularly poignant, with the singer saying that his life has been "burnt out" and his heart shattered. He wonders why his former lover is still his "remedy," suggesting that despite the pain, he still feels drawn to her.


Overall, "Magnolia" is a mournful song that captures the various stages of a dying relationship. The imagery of petals falling off and memories dying is particularly resonant, as it suggests a sense of loss and regret that lingers long after the relationship has ended.
