Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

one day i will
get drunk and txt you
and i'll say
and i'll say
that i want you
lets get coffee
when you're down
when you're down

yeah you scare me
the nicest person
i will wait
i will wait
dali said that
you want me also
will you say
will you say

i thought no one would think about me
but it's not surprising that
you thought about me
i thought
you'd feel like an ocean all reactive

and lucid in emotion why'd you think
about me

Overall Meaning

The song Girl by Salvia Palth speaks about a person's internal confusion and desire for someone they cannot have, which leads to some internal turmoil. The lyrics convey this point effectively, as it speaks about how the person will get drunk one day and contact the girl, expressing their desire to be with them. The lyrics do not necessarily state the situation or the context in which this desire for the unattainable person exists.

The lyrics begin with the statement "one day I will get drunk and text you, and I'll say that I want you. Let's get coffee when you're down." Here, the singer expresses a desire to be with the person in question, but they do so when that person is down, indicating that the person may not be receptive to this desire at this time. Then it goes on to say that the girl in question "scares" them, which could mean that the person is afraid of rejection from the girl, or maybe they've built up an idealized version of the girl in their head, which is different from the reality.

The next stanza is a thought that no one thinks about the singer, and the possibility of the girl thinking about them is overwhelming. They imagine the girl being "oceanic and reactive." It is a fascinating and thought-provoking song that portrays the mental conflict that arises when someone desires something they know they cannot have.
