Supernova
Sabrina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could pick your freckles out of a crowd
I could be the stars in your eyes if you'd let me
You're just another confession
I wish you would let me be

Mirage and rose colored glasses
I am a fool, you are a waste of my time I think
I think I'm running out of mind to lose
I think I might be in love with you

Leave behind, I've always been juvenile
Leave behind just the taste of your smile
Warning signs, I am just a small bit of space
Warning signs say that you're not worth my while

Mirage and rose colored glasses
I am a fool as you're still making passes
I think I'm just not used to being somebody who's wanted
I just wanted something that lasted

Smile in the sun
Just like the world had just stopped spinning
Just as the way my heart stops beating
As the new world was beginning
Smile up at me
Just like you just saw an angel
I am still falling from above
Why do I still feel like we're age old?

Quick, turn back
You're still a moment I can't stop living
I live in the nervous glances and mistakes I keep forgiving
Quick, turning pale
Hold me as I forget to keep breathing
Hold me as if I was still believing
And don't let me go

Mirage and rose colored glasses
I am a freak and annoying and senseless
You are a fraud, I can't stand you don't need me
I can't tell which one of us is the densest

Mirage and rose colored glasses
I am a fool, you are a waste of my time I think




I think I'm running out of mind to lose
I think I might be in love with you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sabrina's song "Supernova" convey a complex and tumultuous relationship, where the singer finds themselves in a paradoxical state of intense attraction and frustration towards their partner. The opening lines, "I could pick your freckles out of a crowd, I could be the stars in your eyes if you'd let me," suggest a deep desire to be intimately connected and recognized by the person they are addressing. However, there is also a yearning for reciprocity and acceptance, as the singer expresses their frustration that they are merely seen as "just another confession" and wishes for the chance to be something more.


The lyrics further explore the feelings of being deceived and mistreated in the relationship. The references to "Mirage and rose colored glasses" indicate a distorted perception or illusion created by their partner, leading the singer to feel like a fool for investing time and emotions in someone who seems undeserving. Despite these realizations, there is a sense of reluctance to let go, as they admit to still being in love and wanting something that lasts.


The final verse introduces a bittersweet contrast between the past and the present. The singer reminisces about the fleeting moments of happiness and connection they shared, symbolized by "Smile in the sun." However, the reference to the world spinning and their heart stopping suggests a realization that those blissful moments were temporary and have since faded. The plea to "Hold me as if I was still believing, and don't let me go" reveals the singer's vulnerability and desire to hold onto those fleeting moments, even if they are aware of the falsehoods within the relationship.


Overall, "Supernova" captures the complexity and contradictions that can exist within a love/hate relationship, where intense emotions and longing are mingled with disappointment and a struggle to let go.
