drops
P.E.M. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sitting all alone
Pill bottles by my feet
Got a lot to say
But I can hardly speak
Remembering the days
When it was you and me
Stuck inside a place
That I can not escape
And it’s no longer summer time
And rain is falling from the sky
You can go do what you like
And I’ll try to stop myself from losing my mind
Losing my mind
I’m wasting my time
I’m wasting my time
Trynna get some sleep
And trynna find some peace
I’m stuck in my ways
You are on your knees
I know it fucking hurts
And I should let you be
But it’s no longer summer time
And tears are rolling from my eyes
You are doing what you like
And I’m still losing my mind
Losing my mind
Don’t know if I will make it this time
Never doing what I love
Only do what brings me pain
Never doing what I love
Only do what brings me pain
And it’s no longer summer time
The truth is I loved you all this time
But now I’m doing what I like
And I know you’re losing your mind
Losing your mind
I loved you in the summer time
You used me just to pass it by
I don’t think I feel things right




But you’re forever in my mind
In my mind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to P.E.M.'s song "Drops" appear to reflect the struggles of someone trying to move on from a painful situation. The song tells a story of someone who is isolated and consumed by their own regrets and memories. The first verse suggests that the person is dealing with issues surrounding addiction or mental health, with pill bottles by their feet and difficulty speaking.


The second verse reveals that the person is stuck in their ways and struggling to find peace, while the person they're addressing is on their knees, likely taking a more submissive position in the situation. The chorus speaks to the theme of lost love, with the singer lamenting that it's no longer summer and tears are rolling from their eyes. They are struggling to move on while their former partner seems to have already done so.


The third verse introduces a bit of a twist: the singer acknowledges that they too have moved on and are doing what they like, even though they're aware it's hurting the other person. They also acknowledge that they were in love with the person all along, which adds a layer of complexity to their actions. The song closes with the repeated refrain of the person being forever in the singer's mind, suggesting that even as they move on, they will still carry the memories of this relationship with them.


Overall, "Drops" is a poignant portrayal of the difficulties of moving on from a relationship, especially when both parties are struggling with their own issues. The lyrics are open-ended enough to apply to a variety of situations, which adds to their emotional resonance.

The person will always hold a place in my thoughts and memories


In my mind
The person still holds importance in my thoughts and memories

Thanks very useful information. I was getting no bubbles and thought it was because of the distilled water and that you needed minerals. So now it makes sense. Gratitude for the time and preparation of this video.

Stefan Allard

I felt abit dizzy first time using it and I used tap water. I read on amazon reviews that tap water can make you dizzy. Toughts? Was it because i drank the water i was suppose to rinse the device with?

Daniel Vogt

Actually it is the other way round: I first used my own borehole water, which is very mineral rich. After a while it still produced bubbles, but obviously not high concentration hydrogen water. Where as usually I could produce about 5-6 batches with one charge, now it took dozens of batches and several days before a recharge. I was devastated, because the energy I at first got from drinking the water was quickly being lost. Then I read about the potential problem, why you can have bubbles but not hydrogen being produced: Too much lime/minerals in the water. Remedy: Soak it in some vinegar for a while. This is what I have done. Wow, what a difference: Actually on more than one occasion after that it literally blew the lid off.:-) So: Rather use distilled or reverse osmosis water to get your best results!

Thank you for this video. I am a little confused about the over saturation. So if we run a bottle, should we then remove the bottle and let the membrane dry out between bottles? If we make water several times a day for a few people in the house, will that over saturate it? If we let it dry out between bottles, won't it then also have a dry membrane problem?

@Shelli C I do not know how long it is goi g to last but I know it won’t last for days. I’m thinking hours.

Shelli C

@delvis11 Sorry I have another question. I know you said you are going to be doing a video on how long the hydrogen lasts in water. My question is, if I do an Evian water bottle on my machine. Then as soon as it is done put the lid on tight. Will the bydrogen last until it is opened before it starts dissipating? I would like to do several of them for my friend who has Parkinson's to try. Give him enough for a few days. He will buy his own if it works. But I would hate to give him several days worth, him try it and nothing happens because the hydrogen didn't last in a closed bottle. Thanks for all your help.

Shelli C

@delvis11 Thank you so much, I understand that much better. 🙂

delvis11

This can be a tricky phenomenon. I find it best to leave a bit of water in the bottle and turn it up side down. This way the membrane will not be wet but still gets moisture from the humidity. If you are using it several times a day you will not have to worry about this. It's when the bottle sits for a couple of days with or without water in it that causes this problem.

CHARITO GASPI

Thank you so much for this presentation. Really helped a lot in troubleshooting pem bottles.

Marie Moon

Thanks for this, it's really helpful 😏 I wonder if mine works properly because of the big bubbles with wall ones .. I don't see big bubbles on yours 🤔
