MIKA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All insecure, out of my mind
I shouldn't have left that message on your phone
I shouldn't have said the things I said
Looking for love we left for dead
In a grave without a stone,
As soon as you hear my voice
Don't hesitate put your finger on the button
Erase, my love
I bet you can't erase my touch
You're trying to replace
A figure without a name
With somebody else's face
In your head
Every thing's cool
The rent is paid
The house is clean
Your bed is made
But it's a ghost town in your mind
Never had time to go to sleep
We'd wake up tangled in the sheets
On a bed that we called home
When the pain won't go away
You might as well put your finger on the trigger
Erase my love
I bet you can't Erase my touch
You're trying to replace
A figure without a name
With somebody else's face in your head
Erase ...
Erase my love
I bet you can't erase my touch
You're trying to replace
A figure without a name
With somebody else's face
In your head
Erase...
You're trying to replace
A figure without a name
With somebody else's face
In your head
Erase...
Oh oh
In Mika's song Erase, the singer is reflecting on a past relationship and the mistakes he made. He is apparently regretful for reaching out to his former partner late at night, in a state of insecurity, and leaving a message on their phone. The lyrics suggest that their relationship had gone sour, and that they had neglected their love and allowed it to die. Mika highlights that it feels like there is "a ghost town" in his ex-partner's mind, and that they are trying to replace him with someone else.
The chorus of the song focuses on the titular word "erase" and its meaning. Through this word, Mika conveys the idea that the memories of their love cannot be erased, just like the touch he had on his ex-partner's life. He also emphasizes that his ex-partner's attempt to replace him with someone else is futile, as the memory of him is deeply ingrained in their mind, and there is no other person who could possibly fill that void.
The song's lyrics can be interpreted in many ways, but it seems to revolve around the theme of loss and regret. The lyrics suggest that Mika is trying to move on from his past relationship but is finding it difficult to do so as his memories are still alive in his ex-partner's mind.
Line by Line Meaning
I shouldn't have called so late last night
I regret calling you at a late hour last night
All insecure, out of my mind
I was feeling insecure and not in control of my thoughts
I shouldn't have left that message on your phone
I should not have left a message on your phone
I shouldn't have said the things I said
I regret saying what I said
Looking for love we left for dead
We gave up on finding love
In a grave without a stone
Buried without a marker to remember
As soon as you hear my voice
The moment you hear me speak
Don't hesitate put your finger on the button
Don't wait to disconnect the call
Erase, my love
Forget the feeling we had together
I bet you can't erase my touch
My touch has left an indelible mark on you
You're trying to replace
You're attempting to find a substitute for
A figure without a name
Someone who left an impression, but whose identity is not known
With somebody else's face
Trying to replace someone from the past with someone new
In your head
In your thoughts and memories
Every thing's cool
Everything appears fine on the surface
The rent is paid
The bills are covered
The house is clean
The space is tidy and organized
Your bed is made
Your personal space is put in order
But it's a ghost town in your mind
Internally, everything is empty and abandoned
Never had time to go to sleep
We were busy with our lives and didn't make time for rest
We'd wake up tangled in the sheets
We would frequently spend time together, intimately
On a bed that we called home
Our shared bed was a place of comfort and familiarity
When the pain won't go away
When the emotional hurt remains present
You might as well put your finger on the trigger
Suggesting that the constant pain is like suffering a gunshot wound
Erase...
Forget...
Oh oh

Peccato che questa canzone non faccia più parte della sua discografia. Il testo è giovane, fresco. Ma soprattutto questo genere valorizza tantissimo il suo timbro💖
