Eden
Plake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She hit the dance floor
Feeling young feeling used
Looking for trouble
When her eyes caught my view
The last time that she felt this way
She cut ties and She ran into the moon
The same love with a different pain
It's all Just a drug to pull you through
You're my eden you're my muse
So connected when your body moves
I can't focus on anyone
anyone but you
Anyone but you
(You, you, you
You you you)
I hit the pedal
Pushing love pushing fumes
Run like the devil
Till your out of my view
I pull the trigger
What can I say what can I do
I hold the past love
When I should hold you
You're my eden
you're my muse
So connected when your body moves
I can't focus on anyone
anyone but you
Anyone but you
you, you, you
you, you, you)
Anyone but you




(you, you, you
you, you, you)

Overall Meaning

Plake's song "Eden" is a romantic narrative of two individuals caught in the throes of passion and the desire to forget past lovers. The lyrics depict a woman on the dance floor, seeking pleasure and adventure and coming across the singer's gaze. The woman confesses to feeling young yet used, caught between the excitement of newfound passion and the dread of repeating past mistakes.


The lyrics go on to describe the woman's history of running away from love and the pain that comes with it. The singer seems to understand that love is a powerful drug that can be both healing and addictive, and recognizes that the woman has become his muse and his sanctuary, a source of emotional rebirth and artistic inspiration. Their connection is so strong that he can no longer focus on anyone else but her.


However, the song also suggests that the singer is not entirely free from his own past love. He admits to holding on to the pain of previous relationships, even when he should be holding on to the present moment and the woman he loves. The song depicts the two characters as being drawn to each other despite their past baggage and their fears of getting hurt again.
