Jade
Senna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So I started gettin better
Maybe that’s why i’m afraid
Temptations setting deadlines
The wave in me is about to break
I feel it in my bones
Perfection’s unworthy
Where do i belong?
Take me to a place where light can’t find me

Sinking in drowning in
Feeling these cold cuts
Slippin in thinkin
I‘ve never felt more luck
The pressure is rising
Thats why I keep hiding
Before I‘m starting to

Rise and shine
Cause I’m tired of me anyway
Rise and shine
I’ve been feeling this sht everyday
Yeah it’s all about the empathy
Get me out this fckin misery
Rise and shine
Cause I am tired of me anyway

When I feel so bitter
And the air gets thinner
Can you help me to feel alive
Sinking in drowning in
Feeling these cold cuts
Slippin in thinkin
I‘ve never felt more luck
The pressure is rising
Thats why I keep hiding
Before I‘m starting to..

Rise and shine
Cause I’m tired of me anyway
Rise and shine
I’ve been feeling this sht everyday
Yeah it’s all about the empathy
Get me out this fckin misery
Rise and shine
Cause I am tired of me anyway

I’ve been tryin - I’ve been tryin to find another way
Striving endlessly
I’ve been dying - I would die to find another way
I have been lying to me everyday
I’m tired of me anyway
I’ve been feeling this sht everyday


Rise and shine
Cause I’m tired of me anyway
Rise and shine
I’ve been feeling this sht everyday
Yeah it’s all about the empathy
Get me out this fckin misery




Rise and shine
Cause I am tired of me anyway

Overall Meaning

The song "Jade" by Senna is a melancholic reflection of the struggles of self-improvement and the ever-present fear that we may never measure up to the standards we set for ourselves. The singer describes the feeling of being on the cusp of progress but also feeling burdened by the weight of perfectionism that is holding them back. They feel that the pressure is rising, and the wave inside of them is about to break, leading them to wonder where they belong in this world of high expectations. The lyrics express the desire to escape from the harshness of the world and venture to a place where they cannot be reached by the light of scrutiny.


The chorus "Rise and shine, 'cause I'm tired of me anyway" suggests a longing to break free from the limitations of past habits and self-destructive patterns of behavior. The singer is exhausted from the routine of self-improvement and the unsatisfactory results that come from it. They yearn for empathy from others to help them escape from their inner turmoil and misery. The bridge portrays the thought process of the singer. They have tried to find other ways to deal with their issues, but their relentless pursuit of perfection leaves them feeling trapped in the difficulties of their own mind.


In conclusion, "Jade" is an introspective ballad that conveys the anxiety that accompanies personal growth and the desire for a reprieve from self-scrutiny.
