In my head
Maala Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can not wait any longer
I want that long night, long times all the time
You want that long love, close touch right now
Let's keep it high heat, no sleep all the time
Just want to keep up, hold off this now
But I knew every word that I just said
By now I'm supposed to know this wrong, but
I can't seem to slow down in my head
In my head
Silhouette of what I needed
Nothing left but I can feel it
I want that long night, long times all the time
You want that long love, close touch right now
Let's keep it high heat, no sleep all the time
Just want to keep up, hold off this now
You said you don't want to talk about it
But I knew every word that I just said
By now I'm supposed to know this wrong, but
I can't seem to slow down in my head
In my head
I hope there's some change
Just want to be enough
Just want to be enough
I hope there's some change
Just want to be enough
Just want to be enough
You said you don't want to talk about it
But I knew every word that I just said
By now I'm supposed to know this wrong, but
I can't seem to slow down in my head
In my head
In my head
Maala's song "In My Head" is a reflection on the dizzying and all-encompassing nature of a new love. The lyrics convey a sense of urgency and desire that drives the singer to want to spend every moment with their lover. The line "I want that long night, long times all the time" expresses the desire for the relationship to be constant and unending. The singer is consumed by the intensity of their feelings, unable to slow down their thoughts or comprehend the possible consequences of such a consuming love. The chorus repeats the phrase "In my head," emphasizing how the relationship is dominating the singer's thoughts and emotions.
The second verse of the song further emphasizes the sense of desperation that comes with this kind of love. The "silhouette" of what the singer needs is all that remains, and they are left with nothing but the feeling that they need to be with their lover. The line "Let's keep it high heat, no sleep all the time" suggests that the singer is willing to sacrifice their own well-being in order to maintain this intense relationship.
The bridge of the song reveals a glimmer of self-awareness as the singer acknowledges that they should know better than to get so caught up in this kind of love. However, the last repetition of "In my head" suggests that they are still unable to slow down and think more rationally about the situation.
Overall, "In My Head" is a compelling portrait of a love that consumes everything around it, embodying the highs and lows of such an all-encompassing feeling.
