Weak
Marie Picasso Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lost in time I can't count the words
I said when I thought they weny unheard
All of those harsh thoughts so unkind
'Cause I wanted you
And now I sit here I'm all alone
So here sits a bloody mess, tears fly home
A circle of angels deep in war
'Cause I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no ones fool
Weak as I am

So what am I now? I'm loves last hope
I'm all of the soft words I once owned
If I opened my heart, there'd be no space for air
'Cause I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no ones fool
Weak as I am

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?

Weak as I am
Weak as I am
Weak as I am
Weak as I am, am, am
Weak as I am
Am I too much for you?

Weak as I am
Am I too much for you?

Weak as I am
Am I too much for you?

Weak as I am, wohoo





Am I too much for you?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Marie Picasso's "Weak" are about the struggles of unrequited love and the pain that comes with it. The singer is lost in time, unable to count the number of times she has expressed her feelings to the person she loves, but to no avail. She regrets the harsh words she may have said out of desperation and acknowledges that she is now alone. The chorus “Weak as I am, no tears for you, deep as I am, I'm no one's fool”, suggests that she has accepted the fact that she is vulnerable, but she is no longer going to cry over someone who doesn't feel the same way as her. She treasures herself more than she values being in love with someone that doesn't appreciate how much she cares for them.


In the second verse, the singer identifies herself as the last hope of love, using soft words which she had reserved for the person she loves. But now that they have rejected her love, opening her heart to someone else would be meaningless. The singer reiterates that she is weak, but not foolish, and that she won't shed any more tears for the person who broke her heart as it is now her time to heal.


The repeated questions "Am I too much for you?" in the bridge reveal her insecurity about not being good enough which may have contributed to the unrequited love. It's possible that the person she loves may have found her too intense, or needy, or maybe they just genuinely didn't feel the same way.


Overall, the song communicates the pain and frustration of trying to love someone who doesn't love you back. The singer accepts that she is weak but in the process of loving someone who didn't appreciate her, she has grown stronger and now values herself more.
