Fall
Oklou A. G. Cook Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I left my car illegally parked outside on your dads yard again
Don't say that you need me or don't say nothing at all
I'm over of leaving and coming back when I fall
I tried to lie
And say I was ready to leave the party early
To take you home
'Cause that's what you like
Don't say that you need me or don't say nothing at all
I'm over of leaving and coming back when I fall
Say you'll release me, or don't say anything at all
I'm over of leaving and coming back when I fall
Come back when I fall
Come back when I fall
Come back when I fall
Come back when
Come back when I fall
Come back when I fall
Come back when I fall
Come back when
Don't say that you need me or don't say nothing at all
I'm over of leaving and coming back when I fall
Say you'll release me, or don't say nothing at all
I'm over of leaving and coming back when I fall
In Oklou A. G. Cook's song Fall, the lyrics describe a toxic and cyclical relationship. The singer acknowledges that it is not difficult for their partner to say what they want to say, but the singer struggles to follow through with actions. They continually park their car illegally on their partner's father's yard, implying that they keep overstepping boundaries. The refrain of "Don't say that you need me, or don't say nothing at all / I'm over of leaving and coming back when I fall" suggests that the singer is fed up with the inconsistency of their relationship. They want their partner to either release them and let them go or commit fully to the relationship.
The second verse delves further into the singer's attempts to placate their partner. They try to lie and say that they are ready to leave the party early to take their partner home because it is what their partner likes. The line "A boy who won't say no, and can't let go" implies that the singer struggles with setting boundaries and possibly has codependent tendencies. The repetition of "Come back when I fall" throughout the song reinforces the idea that this relationship is a cycle, with the singer continually falling and returning to their partner.
Overall, the song Fall is a poignant reflection on a tumultuous relationship, with Oklou A. G. Cook's haunting vocals and production adding to the emotional weight of the lyrics.
