Outlines
Mike Mago Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Too shy baby baby
I'm right at your boarder
Hearts out masquerading
Why can't I come over
I wonder what you do
I'm looking at your perfect outlines
I wanna get with you
And get beyond your perfect outlines

Another one drops to pressure
Another dance in the dark
Another love undercover
Outlines of the heart
Another one drops to pressure
Another dance in the dark
Another love undercover
Outlines of the heart

Outlines
Outlines
Outlines
Outlines

Another one drops to pressure
Another love undercover
Another one drops to pressure
Another love undercover
Another one drops to pressure
Another love undercover

It takes all your courage
To come any closer
Rise up silhouetting
Shoulder to shoulder
I wonder who are you
I'm looking at your perfect outlines
I wanna get with you
And get beyond your perfect outlines

Another one drops to pressure
Another dance in the dark
Another love undercover
Outlines of the heart
Another one drops to pressure
Another dance in the dark
Another love undercover
Outlines of the heart

Outlines
Outlines
Outlines
Outlines
Outlines
Outlines
Outlines
Outlines

Another one drops to pressure
Another love undercover
Another one drops to pressure




Another love undercover
Another one drops to pressure

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mike Mago's song "Outlines" speak of the longing for someone who seems just out of reach. The singer is "too shy" to approach this person who is "right at [their] border" and admires them from afar, wondering what they do and looking at their "perfect outlines." The repetition of "Another one drops to pressure, another dance in the dark, another love undercover, outlines of the heart" suggests that this longing and pressure to connect with others is a universal theme.


Throughout the song, the singer expresses both a desire to get closer to this person and a fear of taking that step, as it takes "all your courage to come any closer." The use of imagery, like "rise up silhouetting, shoulder to shoulder," adds to the feeling of wanting to connect physically with someone. However, despite the fear and pressure, the repetition of "outlines" suggests that there is something alluring and mysterious about this person that the singer cannot resist.


Overall, the lyrics of "Outlines" evoke the universal feelings of desire, fear, and longing that come with wanting to connect with someone on a deeper level. The singer is drawn to this person's "perfect outlines" and feels the pressure of the struggle to connect with others, but ultimately, the song leaves the outcome unknown. It could be interpreted as a bittersweet reflection on the ups and downs of trying to connect with others.
