Bubbles
Ryan Caraveo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You drive me crazy, I think I like it
Wake up with a smile, fall asleep fighting
It isn't healthy, but it's exciting
You drive me crazy, I think I like it
I'm drowning in the deep end, baby
I like how the bubbles look
I'm drowning in the deep end, baby
I like how the bubbles look

'Til the bubbles gone, you don't even double take
The B.S. that you feed me give me tummy aches
Still, I eat it all
Beg you for a second plate
Smile while you screaming at me
Now, this how I meditate
Sinking, sinking, sinking
Don't you pick me up
You got me thinking, thinking, thinking
That I'm hideous
'Til you tell me I'm not
You were just mad
I hit the bottom, then you start reeling me back

Please know: I don't wanna breathe this air again
Pull the hook out, please throw me back in
Wherever is deepest, I can swim
I don't wanna see your ass again

You drive me crazy, I think I like it
Wake up with a smile, fall asleep fighting
This isn't healthy, but it's exciting
You drive me crazy, I think I like it
I'm drowning in the deep end, baby
I like how the bubbles look
I'm drowning in the deep end, baby
I like how the bubbles look

Tearing through my clothes looking for a clue (for a clue)
My favorite t-shirt got torn in two (torn in two)
Digging through my pockets looking for receipts
This is like a horror show, but every night it's on repeat
Pick the phone up like "don't you ever call me" (beep)
Right after that, I text you like "I'm sorry, please"
"Please, please, please I didn't mean it"
"I took the blame, why you leaving?"
"Why you leaving?"

Please know: I don't wanna breathe this air again
Pull the hook out, please throw me back in
Wherever is deepest, I can swim
I just wanna see your ass again

You drive me crazy, I think I like it
Wake up with a smile, fall asleep fighting
It isn't healthy, but it's exciting
You drive me crazy, I think I like it
I'm drowning in the deep end, baby
I like how the bubbles look




I'm drowning in the deep end, baby
I like how the bubbles look

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ryan Caraveo's "Bubbles" describe a toxic and tumultuous relationship where the singer is aware of the unhealthy nature of it but can't help but be fascinated and attracted to it. The line "You drive me crazy, I think I like it" sets the tone of this duality, where the singer both loves and hates the situation they are in. This is further emphasized by the line "Wake up with a smile, fall asleep fighting," where the singer seems to enjoy the conflict and drama of the relationship.


The chorus contains the metaphor of drowning in the deep end, with a focus on the bubbles. The singer is drawn to the beauty of the bubbles as they sink deeper and deeper, even though they are in danger of drowning. This could represent the allure of a destructive relationship, where the individual might be aware that they are getting hurt but are too in love with the drama to leave.


In the second verse, the negative aspects of the relationship become more apparent, with lines like "The B.S. that you feed me gives me tummy aches" and "Pick the phone up like 'don't you ever call me'/Right after that, I text you like 'I'm sorry, please'." The singer seems to be trapped in a cycle of abuse, where they constantly apologize and take the blame for their partner's behavior.

How can one hell of a good singer have such a small amount of fans, He should be up there past all the mumble rappers and shit... Ryan is a very good singer that should get more fans than what he has, he's an amazing guy and I love his music. He is so inspirational and amazing, keep up the good work man I love your music.
