The Beach
Max Leone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm drowning in the sea
Pull me in so I can breathe
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
You look so cool
I get burnt when I touch you
Never learn, I'm such a foolOh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
Feels good
Always ends up in the same way
I get burnt by the end of every Sunday
I don't learn, when I wake up do the same thing again
Feels nice 'til the feeling gets blurry
Blue skies, never knew that you could hurt me
You lie, but I lie right next to you
You're like the beach
And I'm drowning in the sea
Pull me in so I can breathe
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
You look so cool
I get burnt when I touch you
Never learn, I'm such a fool
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
I tried, but I'm never getting through to you
I wish you'd tell me what I could do
To make you believe the things I see
Who hurt you to make you this way?Pull me in, then push me away
Baby, what I'm trying to say is you
You're like the beach
And I'm drowning in the sea
Pull me in so I can breathe
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
You look so cool
I get burnt when I touch you
Never learn, I'm such a fool
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
You're like the beach (oh no, oh no)
And I'm drowning in the sea (oh no, oh no)
Pull me in so I can breathe
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
You look so cool (oh no, oh no)
I get burnt when I touch you (oh no, oh no)
Never learn, I'm such a fool
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
Max Leone's song "The Beach" appears to be about an alluring yet toxic relationship that the singer cannot seem to quit. The opening lines "You're like the beach, and I'm drowning in the sea" set the tone for the song, with the singer feeling overwhelmed by their partner's charisma and charm. Despite knowing that the relationship is not good for them, they cannot resist the pull and continue to make the same mistakes.
The comparison of the partner to the beach - "You look so cool, I get burnt when I touch you"- highlights the duality of the relationship. The beach may be an idyllic and peaceful place, but it can also be dangerous and overwhelming. Similarly, the partner may seem perfect, but their allure can lead to the singer's downfall.
The repetition of "Oh no" throughout the song serves as a reminder of the singer's hesitancy to continue with this cycle of falling for their partner and getting hurt. The lyrics "I don't learn, when I wake up do the same thing again" suggest that the pattern may be difficult to break, and the singer may need help to stop the cycle.
Overall, the song captures the difficult, often confusing emotions that come with an unhealthy relationship. Despite the pain and toxicity of the situation, the singer cannot manage to let go of their partner, highlighting the powerful hold that some relationships can have.
