Nauseous
Marley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're just walking through the memories
Baby I'm nauseous
Maybe I caused this
It's all from me
Walking through the strayed line
Shit don’t matter
If I lost the girl that’s in my dreams
Baby I’m nauseous
Baby I’m cautious
You lied to me
You trust me but
I'm watching you betray mine
Shit don’t matter
If I lost the girl that’s in my dreams
What do I do because
Baby I’m nauseous
Baby I’m cautious
You lied to me
You trust me but
I'm watching you betray mine
What do you when
The one and only reason that you’re breathin' is a nuisance
And it’s something that you knew since
You finished tying up the noose end
I’m a loose end
I’m loose cannon
Baby yes, I know I’m in a true panic
Maybe shit’s different cause I feel a little manic
But I’m tryin' hard to cope since you made my trust vanish
And you think that things are fine but it’s hard for me to manage
It don’t really matter but it really does
I’m hating what this is and I’m wanting what it was
Begging me for love and you’re begging me for trust
But tell me that I’m trash and I’ll never be enough
I wish I could move on
Deleting every picture 'till they’re all gone
But you end up in my bed every new dawn
and I want you on repeat like a new song
Where’d I’d go wrong?
If I’m honest I don't really know
I'm tired of the texts and the calls on my phone
I don't wanna be alone but it’s better than being with you
It's sad but it’s true
You don't even try to see my view
But shit, what’s new?
You don't wanna act like you care
I just wanna have someone there
You tell me that I’m actin' unfair
Girl of my dreams, now they’re all nightmares
Now they’re all nightmares
Shit don’t matter
If I lost the girl that’s in my dreams
What do I do because
Baby I’m nauseous
Baby I’m cautious
You lied to me
You trust me but
I'm watching you betray mine
Shit don't matter
We're just walking through the memories
Baby I'm nauseous
Maybe I caused this
It's all from me
Walking through the strayed line
In Marley's song "Nauseous," the lyrics depict a feeling of emotional turmoil and confusion. The first verse suggests a sense of indifference towards certain things in life, indicating a lack of significance or importance. The line "we're just walking through the memories" suggests a reflection on past experiences and the realization that they may not hold much weight or meaning.
The repetition of the phrase "Baby I'm nauseous" indicates a deep sense of emotional discomfort or unease. The persona acknowledges the possibility that they may have caused this feeling themselves, taking responsibility for the negative emotions they are experiencing. This admission suggests a level of self-awareness and introspection.
As the song progresses, the persona reflects on the loss of a significant person from their life, specifically referred to as "the girl that's in my dreams." The repetition of the line "If I lost the girl that's in my dreams, what do I do because" emphasizes the deep impact this loss has had on them. The persona feels both nauseous and cautious, possibly indicating a mix of vulnerability and apprehension in moving forward.
There is a sense of betrayal in the lyrics, as the persona highlights the fact that the person they trusted has lied to them. This betrayal adds to the feelings of nausea and caution, heightening their overall emotional distress. The line "I'm watching you betray mine" showcases their vigilance and the heightened awareness they now have when it comes to trust.
In the final verse, the persona delves deeper into their emotional state. They express feeling like a loose end, a loose cannon, and in a state of panic. It becomes apparent that they are struggling to cope with the impact of the loss and the subsequent erosion of trust. They also express a sense of confusion, as they are not sure where they went wrong in the relationship. The longing for the person they lost is evident in the line "I want you on repeat like a new song."
The song concludes with a realization that being alone might be better than being with someone who doesn't care or understand their perspective. The line "Girl of my dreams, now they're all nightmares" encapsulates the transformation of their perception from hopeful and positive to dark and negative. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the persistent reflection on lost love and the accompanying nausea that results from it. The overall sentiment in the lyrics suggests a complex blend of emotional turmoil, self-reflection, and the struggle to move on from a painful loss.

are we not gonna talk about how evil kitty is for manipulating marley into having an eating disorder?
Summer Pratt
the show basically never addressed it or made her apologize and that pisses me off so much
Judith Desorme
@Summer Pratt she did it during the " shooting"
Summer Pratt
@Judith Desorme yeah but it wasnt a real apology cause she made it out of the idea that she was gonna die and she didnt get any repercussions. I dont count it as valid
Tamara Jiménez
And how she wasn't even aked about it when everybody discovered it 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤬🤬🤬

To this day I wonder why the hell Marley chose Jake over Ryder. Ryder treated her like a princess meanwhile Jake cheated on her when she didn't wanna go too far other than just kissing
agenttheater5
You love who you love - and I actually think it was a better Idea that she ended up deciding to be single for a while instead.
Miguel Rodriguez
@agenttheater5 why did she try to vomit what is wrong with her.
agenttheater5
@Miguel Rodriguez Kitty (a cheerleader from Glee club who felt that Marley stole both her boyfriend and the lead role in the show) kept on talking about how likely it was for her to inherit her mothers fat genes and kept on sneaking in at night and taking in her costumes so that they wouldn't fit the next day so that she would think that she was getting fatter - she already has low self-esteem. Then Kitty started talking to her about how she should make herself vomit so that she wouldn't be fat. Basically it lead to Marley having an eating disorder and Kitty did feel guilty about that but was too scared of the repercussions of her actions to come forward and admit it, even after Marley fainted on stage. We find out later that Kitty's had some pretty serious troubles herself and I don't think she realised that her words and actions could have that level of an effect on others, but it doesn't justify what she did to Marley.
