Pink and Blue
OhNo! Milo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I can smell a downpour on the rise.
The faint smile you’re hiding behind…
Is the epithet of apathy contrived.
Feels like we just got started.
Looks like your eyes’ve been cryin.
Sit you down, let’s talk about it…
It’s all that’s been on my mind.
Don’t hide what’s on your mind.
It’s all that’s been on my mind.
I can feel you insides churning.
Stop pretending you were justified.
Can you feel the sand that’s shifting?
A hard truth is gonna flood tonight.
I just don’t know how to say this.
Don’t be delicate, I can take it.
I want to make it hurt less.
I’ll be alright, I guess I always am.
Let’s take a step back… can we take a step back…
I like us too much to spoil this.
I like you too much don’t spoil this.
Can we go back to the starting line?
We’ll get it right the second time.
Breaking up’s still hard to do…
Even when I know we’re not through.
The song "Pink And Blue" by OhNo! Milo is a powerful track that delves into the complexities of a relationship that is on the verge of falling apart. The opening verse sets the tone with the lyrics "Your stoic eyes hide a smoky sky, But I can smell a downpour on the rise." This paints a picture of someone who may be holding back their emotions, but the storm is brewing inside of them. The singer of the song can sense that something is wrong, and they want to talk about it to help fix the problem, but the other person seems closed off.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Don't hide what's on your mind. It's all that's been on my mind." This effectively conveys the message that communication is key in any relationship, and it's best to address any issues that are troubling us. There's a feeling of urgency in the song, with the lyrics "A hard truth is gonna flood tonight," suggesting that whatever is going on between these two people needs to be resolved sooner rather than later.
The third verse is particularly poignant, with the line "I just don’t know how to say this. Don’t be delicate, I can take it." This is a relatable sentiment for anyone who has struggled to express their feelings to someone they care about. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the lyrics "Can we go back to the starting line? We’ll get it right the second time. Breaking up’s still hard to do… Even when I know we’re not through." This suggests that the relationship may still have a chance if both parties are willing to work through their issues.
