Boomerang
Massivivid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're going down boy
I'm hot on your heels
I've been chasing you for what feels like years
And everybody knows that i'm prone to get my way
You better watch your thunder its the first thing i'm gonna steal
Keep an eye on your wonder it's the only thing that's real

You'll be back

You're beautiful trying to get yourself born
You're beautiful and it's stitched into every pore
And it's painful to watch you headlong into the black
But if i don't let you go, you won't be back.

You know it's time boy
You're losing the plot
I've been chasing you, is that all you've got
Look over your shoulder and realize that my eyes are on you
You're fantastically iconoclastic
And drastically reducing all you know to plastic
You're spastic and elastic and now
I'm gonna smash you apart.

You're beautiful trying to get yourself born
You're beautiful and it's stitched into every pore




And it's painful to watch you headlong into the black
But if i don't let you go, you won't be back.

Overall Meaning

The song "Boomerang" by Massivivid is a powerful track about the end of a relationship. The lyrics are addressed to a former lover who is trying to move on from the singer. The singer seems to be in a position of power, as if they are the one in control of the situation, and the person they are singing to is struggling to keep up. The lines "You're going down boy / I'm hot on your heels" set the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer talks about chasing their ex-lover and warning them to watch their back.


The song is full of interesting and vivid imagery, such as "Keep an eye on your wonder it's the only thing that's real", which seems to suggest that the singer values their ex's sense of wonder and imagination, but also wants to take it away from them. The chorus is particularly powerful, as the singer tells their ex "You're beautiful trying to get yourself born / You're beautiful and it's stitched into every pore / And it's painful to watch you headlong into the black / But if i don't let you go, you won't be back." These lines suggest that the singer both admires and is frustrated by their ex's desire to start anew, and they are willing to let them go in order to have them return to them when they're ready.
