Clouds
MDWS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wait, don't be loud
The minute that your feet float off the ground
Stay, we'll dance all night
We'll sit and gaze upon this milky cloud

Wait a second, hey
I'm old enough for you, my darling
Fading into another minute
'Cause time can be obscure, don't fight it

Should I keep on fighting feelings?
Oh, you got me, I feel I need it
All the reasons that I can't heal
I'm held up, held up

I'm held up, held up
I'm held up, held up, held up
I'm held up, held up
I'm held up, held up

Got me on fire in the solid rain
Now that I see, I kinda love the pain
I'm falling down but I can't say that I'm two faced
No, I'm not afraid

Wait a second, hey
I'm old enough for you, my darling
Fading into another minute
'Cause time can be obscure, don't fight it

I'm held up, held up
I'm held up, held up, held up
I'm held up, held up
I'm held up, held up

We fight, I feel it coming back again
Please don't go, just hold up, hold up
Ayy, hold up, hold up

I'm held up, held up, held up
I'm held up, held up
I'm held up, held up




Just hold up, hold up
Hold up, hold up, hold up

Overall Meaning

The song "Clouds" by MDWS is a poetic expression of a love that is both intense and confusing at the same time. The lyricist urges his love interest to stay with him and enjoy the moment. He is aware of time's fleeting nature and urges her to embrace the obscurity of time instead of resisting it. He admits to being held captive by his emotions and unable to move past them. He questions whether he should fight his feelings, but in the end, he gives in and accepts the pain that comes with it.


The chorus "I'm held up, held up" is indicative of the emotional state of the singer. He is caught in a cycle of emotions and can't seem to escape. The phrase "Hold up" at the end of the song further emphasizes this struggle to let go.


The song is not just about love but also about the writer's relationship with time. He recognizes the temporary nature of life and the preciousness of each moment. The mention of the "milky cloud" is a metaphorical representation of the ephemeral beauty of life that should be cherished.

Wait, don’t be loud
The minute that your feet float off the ground
Stay, we’ll dance all night
We’ll sit and gaze upon this milky cloud
Wait a second, hey, I’m old enough for you my darling
Fading into, another minute, cause time can be obscure don’t fight it

Should I keep on fighting feelings, oh you got me, I feel I need it
All the reasons that I can’t heal, I’m held up

I’m held up, held up
I’m held up, held up, held up
I’m held up, held up
I’m held up, held up

Got me on fire, in the solid rain
Now that I see, I kinda love the pain
I’m falling down but I can’t say that I’m two faced, no I’m not afraid
Wait a second, hey, I’m old enough for you my darling
Fading into, another minute, cause time can be obscure don’t fight it

I’m held up, held up
I’m held up, held up, held up
I’m held up, held up
I’m held up, held up

We fight, I feel it coming back again
Please don’t go, just hold up. hold up

Aye hold up, hold up
I’m held up, held up, held up
I’m held up, held up
I’m held up, held up
Just hold up, hold up
Hold up, hold up, hold up

@ApeironSound

This just hit me with major nostaglia.
MDWS song "Circle" was one of the first big uploads on the channel and these vibes feel so familiar.
Most of you are started following Apeiron when I started uploading more chilled acoustic/folk, but these slow electronic songs started it all.
(Next uploads are going to be acoustic/pop again, promised)
