I Hope You Feel Good In The Morning
Renwick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the picture of success
Looks less and less like me
Lately, I'm less and less mild
And more and more panicked
I hope you feel good in the morning
(You're nothing,
A sadness without any warning
(You're nothing
You just wait and see)
I hope you recover by morning
(You're nothing
You just wait and see)
A sadness that sits, until dawn
Lately, I'm falling asleep like a baby
(It's not going to last)
My hands are so steady, not shaking
(it's not going to last)
Floating around in a daydream
(it's not going to last long)
Nothing was ever wrong
(it's not going to last long)
Nothing was ever wrong
I hope you feel good in the morning
(it's not going to last long
You're nothing
You just wait and see)
A sadness without any warning
(It's not going to last long
You're nothing
You just wait and see)
I hope you recover by morning
(It's not going to last long
You're nothing
You just wait and see)
From a sadness that sits until dawn
In "I Hope You Feel Good in the Morning" by Renwick, the lyrics depict a sense of growing unease and uncertainty. The singer describes feeling distant from the conventional idea of success and becoming increasingly anxious. The line "Lately, it looks less and less likely, and the picture of success looks less and less like me" indicates a disconnect between the singer's own identity and societal expectations. They feel a sense of inadequacy, questioning their worth and feeling overwhelmed by panic.
Despite their own struggles, the singer expresses a hope for the listener's well-being. The repetition of the verse "I hope you feel good in the morning, a sadness without any warning" suggests that the singer wants the listener to find happiness and relief from their own pain. However, there is a tinge of cynicism and resignation, as they also tell the listener, "You're nothing, you just wait and see." It could be interpreted as a cautionary reminder that life's challenges and disappointments are inevitable.
The second verse conveys a paradoxical state of being, where the singer claims to be falling asleep like a baby, appearing calm and steady, but immediately afterward implies that this state of tranquility is temporary. The line "Nothing was ever wrong" suggests a denial or repression of any problems, creating a façade of perfection. This facade, however, is acknowledged to be fleeting, as the phrase "it's not going to last long" is repeated throughout the verse.
Overall, "I Hope You Feel Good in the Morning" encapsulates a complex mix of emotional vulnerability, realism, and a desire for happiness amidst personal struggles and uncertainties.
