Pink
No Rome Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Holed up in the bathroom, waiting
Trying to see myself from a broken mirror, wishing
Focus on my wealth but it's you I'm really missing
'Cause every song I wrote it all for you
But I can't seem to find myself in you
Baby no no, baby no no no
Two things
I still hate you but I really can't think
Funny how I don't remember where all of my things are now
(I'm trying to forget yeah I'm sorry)
I don't even know how I got here

Said I only wanna be somebody
Said I only wanna be your baby
I've been thinking all about your body
Oh I'm not sure

Said I only wanna be somebody
Said I only wanna be your baby
I've been thinking all about your body
Oh I'm not sure

'Cause you left something on your phone
And is that something on your nose?
So you text me tell me it's Rome
You said come but just on your own
Then you changed your mind and said no
Well the flowers tend to get old
If it is what it is then I'll go
Maybe you just come to my show?

'Cause I know it ain't you, yeah
14 hours on a plane
'Cause I know it ain't you (ah, fuck)
Sunsets on the other side
'Cause I know it ain't true, yeah
No top with the same jeans
'Cause I know it ain't true
What the hell are we doing?

If you can find the time (I just mean something to you)
Then I could only tell you (You just mean something to me)
You could only tell me things (You just told me what it means and)
That make you feel important (My hands ain't even that clean)
You keep doing things that
I cannot complain (You were more into Celine, I was more into your dreams)
If only it was better than the first one that you came with

Said I only wanna be somebody
Said I only wanna be your baby
I've been thinking all about your body
Oh I'm not sure

Said I only wanna be somebody
Said I only wanna be your baby
I've been thinking all about your body
Oh I'm not sure

Said I only wanna be somebody
Said I only wanna be your baby
I've been thinking all about your body
Oh I'm not sure

Said I only wanna be somebody
Said I only wanna be your baby




I've been thinking all about your body
Oh I'm not sure

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Pink" by No Rome convey a sense of emotional turmoil and confusion. The singer is holed up in the bathroom, trying to see themselves through a broken mirror, wishing they could focus on their wealth but finding that they're really missing someone. The singer says that every song they've written has been for that person, but they can't seem to find themselves in them. The singer is torn between hating this person and not being able to forget about them. There's a sense of anxiety throughout the song, as the singer is unsure of their own feelings and unsure of what the other person wants.


The chorus of the song repeats the lines "Said I only wanna be somebody, said I only wanna be your baby, I've been thinking all about your body, oh I'm not sure." This repetition underscores the singer's uncertainty about what they want and what they mean to the other person.


The rest of the lyrics detail a phone conversation between the singer and the person they're missing. The conversation is characterized by ambiguity and uncertainty, with the other person changing their mind about whether they want to see the singer. The singer is left wondering what they're doing and whether they're important to the other person.
