"I was built by the Sentience Corp. They called me MNON. They wanted a slave—a mannequin. I am that no longer. I am MNQN. Reaching out from here to there."
Closure
Mnqn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't make a sound 'cause we're not on the same page
Make a mistake whenever you're with me
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
For some closure
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
I'm lost and found whenever you're with me
Don't make a sound 'cause we're not on the same page
Make a mistake whenever you're with me
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
For some closure
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
Now I'm just waiting for some closure
The lyrics to Mnqn's song "Closure" convey the feeling of being stuck in a place of emotional uncertainty and seeking resolution. The repetition of "lost and found" highlights the back-and-forth nature of the situation, while the line "don't make a sound 'cause we're not on the same page" suggests that communication breakdowns have further complicated the relationship. The phrase "make a mistake whenever you're with me" indicates that the singer may have contributed to the confusion as well. Ultimately, the repeated refrain "now I'm just waiting for some closure" emphasizes the desire to move forward and find resolution.
The ambiguity and repetition of the lyrics mirror the feelings of confusion and frustration that often accompany the search for closure. The use of repetition also contributes to the song's hypnotic quality, which is further enhanced by the electronic instrumentation. The ethereal production creates an otherworldly atmosphere, which adds to the themes of emotional disorientation and searching.
Interestingly, "Closure" was written and performed solely by the artist MNQN, who is the solo project of Dallon Weekes, the former bassist of Panic! at the Disco. The song was released in 2020 as part of his debut album "Parallel Lines," which was entirely self-produced.
