Doom
Melaina Kol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With nothing to do
If things get too shrill
Ill keep you still
Keep me around
Watch my insides turn out
I will be there
And when I find out
You′ll leave me to drown
You know where I'll be
Watching and waiting
Until you′re alone
Until you're a ghost
Don't walk in my dreams
Don′t walk out on me
There′s nothing to fear
You're not even here
And the sun will come out
And you′ll shut your mouth
When you were alive
I felt the sky
I felt the moon
And I felt the sun
And I felt your doom
Coming too soon
When you were alive
I felt the sky
I felt the moon
And I felt the sun
And I felt your doom
Coming too soon
(And I felt your doom)
Coming too soon
(And I felt your doom)
Coming too soon
The lyrics to Melaina Kol's song "Doom" encapsulate the feelings of being trapped in a stagnant and unfulfilling situation, possibly a toxic relationship. The opening lines suggest a sense of confinement, being locked in a room with nothing to do. The next line, "If things get too shrill, I'll keep you still," implies a certain level of control and manipulation, as if one person in the relationship is trying to suppress the other's emotions or voice.
The chorus reveals a certain desperation for validation and attention. The plea to "keep me around" suggests a desire to be noticed, even if it means enduring the internal turmoil that comes along with it. The line "thinking you care" indicates the singer's uncertainty about the other person's true feelings, hinting at a lack of trust or emotional security.
The second verse delves deeper into the singer's emotions. The mention of "drowning" suggests a metaphorical sense of feeling overwhelmed and abandoned. There is a sense of longing and anticipation as the singer watches and waits for the other person to be alone, possibly indicating a desire for confrontation or resolution.
The final lines of the song reveal a bittersweet nostalgia. The memories of when the other person was alive, bringing joy and vitality, are juxtaposed with the impending sense of doom. The repeated phrases emphasize the impact this person had on the singer's life and how their absence has left a void.
Overall, "Doom" explores themes of confinement, emotional manipulation, longing, and the fear of abandonment. It reflects on the complexities of relationships and the emotional toll they can take.

Locked in your room
Trapped and isolated in your own space
With nothing to do
Bored and lacking purpose
If things get too shrill
When the situation becomes overwhelming and chaotic
Ill keep you still
I will calm and comfort you
Keep me around
Let me be by your side
Watch my insides turn out
Witness the vulnerability I reveal
I will be there
I will support and be present for you
Thinking you care
Believing that you have genuine concern
And when I find out
But when I discover
You'll leave me to drown
You will abandon me to my struggles
You know where I'll be
You are aware of my vulnerable state
Watching and waiting
Observing and anticipating your actions
Until you're alone
Until you are by yourself
Until you're a ghost
Until you disappear completely
Don't walk in my dreams
Do not invade my hopes and aspirations
Don't walk out on me
Do not abandon or betray me
There's nothing to fear
There is no need to be afraid
You're not even here
You are not physically present
And the sun will come out
The dawn will arrive
And you'll shut your mouth
And you will remain silent
When you were alive
During the time when you were living
I felt the sky
I experienced a sense of freedom
I felt the moon
I felt a calming presence in the darkness
And I felt the sun
I was filled with warmth and positivity
And I felt your doom
And I sensed your impending fate
Coming too soon
Approaching prematurely
And I felt your doom
And I sensed your impending fate
Coming too soon
Approaching prematurely
And I felt your doom
And I sensed your impending fate
Coming too soon
Approaching prematurely
