Lace
Movement Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know I slip from you, babe
And I will slip through the pages
And you won't break me through
Faded
I'm no good to you, say it
I can get it on, yeah oh
I can get it on, yeah oh
I'm all alone at home
Waiting
I'm all alone with you
Just waiting
I'm in the love
I'm no good to you, say it




I'm out here alone, ooh yeah
I'm out here alone, yeah ooh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Lace" by Movement express a sense of distance and disconnection in a romantic relationship. The singer acknowledges that they "slip" from their partner and that they are "no good" to them. The metaphor of slipping through pages suggests a feeling of drifting apart, as if the relationship is a book they are both reading but on different pages. Despite the distance, the singer is still longing for connection; they are "all alone at home waiting" and "all alone with you just waiting." The repetition of "I can get it on" may suggest an attempt to rekindle the physical aspect of the relationship, but it is uncertain whether this will be successful.

I know I slip from you, babe
I'm aware that distance is growing between us


And I will slip through the pages
I'll continue to drift apart until we're completely apart


And you won't break me through
Your attempts to save our relationship won't work


Faded
Our love has lost its luster


I'm no good to you, say it
I'm not beneficial for you to have in your life


I can get it on, yeah oh
I can find temporary satisfaction elsewhere


I'm all alone at home
I'm lonely when I'm by myself


Waiting
I'm waiting for something to change or happen


I'm all alone with you
Even when I'm with you, I feel alone


Just waiting
I'm still waiting for something to change


I'm in the love
I'm trapped in this love that isn't working


I'm no good to you, say it
Again, I'm not good for you and you need to acknowledge it


I'm out here alone, ooh yeah
I'm not only physically alone, but emotionally as well


I'm out here alone, yeah ooh
Once again, I'm alone and feeling lost
