Emily
Thomas & Friends Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your venom kissed me
Miss I bet he's so gullible
Now your piano plays ME-RE-DO
Sang you in one go
Fake smile but it's too wonderful
Of all guitar chords could've picked
Ignore the crash from your cymbals hits
Knew you'd beat me with every kick
No more mysteries inside your eyes
Ancient histories of you and I
Wind up back there every time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
But I can't wait to hear you again
Oh Emily, you're like my own worst enemy
Still I can't wait to see you again
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
But I can't wait to hear you again
Oh Emily, you're like my own worst enemy
Still I can't wait to see you again
You're so overplayed, so overplayed
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
But I can't wait to hear you again
Oh Emily, you're like my own worst enemy
Still I can't wait to see you again
I miss the mazes in your make-up, your tears will take up
Broke up with all the break up calls
And now we never wanna wake up until it shakes up
Spring up to fight I'm down to fall
Of all guitar chords you could've picked
Strumming softly to sheet music
Ignore the crash from your cymbal hits
Knew you'd beat me with every kick
No more mysteries inside your eyes
Ancient histories of you and I
Wind up back there every time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
But I can't wait to hear you again
Oh Emily, you're like my own worst enemy
Still I can't wait to see you again
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
But I can't wait to hear you again
Oh Emily, you're like my own worst enemy
Still I can't wait to see you again
You're so overplayed, so overplayed
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
But I can't wait to hear you again
Oh Emily, you're like my own worst enemy
Still I can't wait to see you again
Oh Emily
The first verse of the song begins with the singer reminiscing about a past relationship with a woman named Emily. He speaks about chasing after the butterflies that she gave him, which can be seen as a metaphor for the excitement and thrill of their relationship. However, he also acknowledges that Emily's "venom" has affected him in some way, possibly indicating that there were negative aspects to their time together.
The second verse talks about how Emily is like an "overplayed melody" in the singer's life. He acknowledges that she is his own worst enemy, but he can't wait to see her again.

You are playing a familiar tune, one that repeats over and over, like memories of you

I sang about you in one take, with ease, because I know you too well
Fake smile but it's too wonderful
Your fake smile is too captivating and wonderful to resist

You chose the chords that strike my heart the most

You play softly, following the emotional sheet music of our past

I knew you would come out on top, victorious with each attack
No more mysteries inside your eyes

Ancient histories of you and I
Our shared past, dating back to ancient times, is reflected in our current interactions
Wind up back there every time
We always end up reliving the past, repeating our old patterns
Oh Emily, you're like an overplayed melody
Oh Emily, you are a tune I have heard too many times but can't seem to forget
But I can't wait to hear you again

I miss the intricate layers of your character, which I always found fascinating and confusing. Your tears would take up even more space
Broke up with all the break up calls
We have gone through several breakups, each accompanied by a flurry of phone calls
And now we never wanna wake up until it shakes up
We want to stay in our comfortable but unstable state, never wanting to face reality until it becomes chaotic
Spring up to fight I'm down to fall
You are always ready to argue and defend yourself, while I am resigned to falling and accepting defeat
You're so overplayed, so overplayed
You have gone through this routine so many times, it is tiresome and played out
