What a nightmare to love.




Overall Meaning

The opening line of the song "Nightmare" by Okay is a powerful statement. The singer speaks about the difficulties and complexities they face while loving someone. Love can often be overwhelming, and this line suggests that it can become a nightmare. The use of the word "nightmare" in relation to love also portrays the darker side of relationships. It could be a reference to the mental and emotional strain one goes through while trying to maintain a relationship, as it is not always sunshine and roses.


The song then progresses, and Okay sings about how loving someone can feel like a burden. The line "don't wanna talk in the morning, I don't wanna wake up alone" is an example of how dependency and attachment can affect a person's mental state. They appear to be struggling with their emotions, trying to navigate their way through this difficult situation. The chorus speaks volumes, that though love is chaotic and can be painful at times, it is still worth fighting for, and it's okay to feel like you are lost in a nightmare.
