Liquid
Roni Tran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I know
I go solid but don't get me wrong
Yes I go
I love to watch you when you mess around
With my mind
I'm pathetic but only this time
Who knows?
And now I say
It's no more a secret
I go solid, I go liquid
Oh me...
If it's the love that we live for, how come I didn't
know?
Show me an easy way out (2x)
Forget the love 'n get back in the line
With yourself
Try to accept the place where you belong
You belong
I love to teach you though you already know
But this time
Stay in touch if you're planning to go
Below
And now I say
And I say
And I say
Show me an easy way out (2x)
In Roni Tran's song "Liquid," the lyrics depict the singer's emotional state when they are with someone they love. The singer says, "I go liquid when you come around," which implies that they feel a sense of fluidity or relaxation when they are with this person. However, the singer also acknowledges that they "go solid," indicating a more rigid or tense state of mind. Regardless of their emotional state, the singer loves watching the person they love "mess around" with their mind, indicating a sort of playful dynamic in their relationship.
The singer also admits to feeling "pathetic," which could mean they feel a sense of vulnerability or weakness when they are with this person. However, they also recognize that this feeling is temporary ("only this time"), which shows that they are willing to endure the emotional roller coaster that comes with being in love.
The chorus is a plea for an easy way out of the emotional turmoil: "If it's the love that we live for, how come I didn't know? Show me an easy way out." This line could be interpreted in a few ways - perhaps the singer is questioning whether love should be this difficult, or they are simply seeking a way to make things less complicated.
Overall, "Liquid" portrays the complexities of love and the various emotional states that come with it. The singer acknowledges the highs and lows of their relationship, but ultimately cannot find a simple solution to their problems.
