Black Valentine
Mimi Page Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a darkness that adores me
Sending roses in the night
But its jealousy emerges
When I captivate the light
Sorrow, my friend
Someday we have to end
This little affair
I'm afraid it's going nowhere
Sorrow, my friend
Someday we have to end




This little affair
I'm afraid it's going nowhere

Overall Meaning

Mimi Page's song Black Valentine portrays the concept of duality and the darkness within oneself. The singer in the song speaks to the darkness that surrounds her and how it obsesses over her. The roses sent at night can be seen as a symbol of love, but it's really the darkness attempting to charm her. However, when she embraces and captivates the light, the darkness becomes jealous and possessive, showing two completely different sides to this entity.


The lyrics suggest that the singer has a relationship with sorrow, and even though it's familiar territory, she knows that it's not a healthy one. She understands that she needs to break free from the darkness, and at some point end the relationship with sorrow. The song suggests that she's hesitant to do so, as she's afraid of being alone or the possibility of the darkness's wrath. Despite this, she knows that it's time to move forward and let go of this toxic relationship.


Line by Line Meaning

There's a darkness that adores me
A negative force seems attracted to me


Sending roses in the night
This negative force sometimes shows me kindness


But its jealousy emerges
However, it becomes envious


When I captivate the light
Whenever good things come my way


Sorrow, my friend
Sadness seems to be a constant companion


Someday we have to end
I know that eventually it will go away


This little affair
This situation with sadness is like a relationship


I'm afraid it's going nowhere
I worry that it won't change or get better


Sorrow, my friend

I've got to say (pardon me if it is some captain obvious to the rescue :) ) that your music is really haunting. I've spent several weeks playing your channel videos and playlists and finally I bought "breathe me in" in amazon. It's the first time in years that I bough an album in a physical format, but your music made me do it and I'm delighted. Keep up such marvelous work! :)
