Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tory Lanez's song Midnight's Interlude express his frustration with a girl who doesn't reciprocate his feelings. The repeated mantra "The boys will always want the girls" emphasizes the timeless nature of romantic desire, while also hinting at the societal expectations that men should pursue women. However, despite these expectations, the girl in question doesn't want Tory's love or affection. He pleads with her, asking "Why don't you want my love? Why don't you want me baby?" but she remains unresponsive. This rejection causes Tory pain, as he laments that "She'll leave out on me."


The repetition of the chorus and the use of electronic beats create an almost hypnotic effect, conveying the sense of obsessive thoughts and emotions that the singer feels as he tries to understand why the object of his affection doesn't want him. The lyrics paint a picture of unrequited love and highlight the pain and confusion that often accompany such feelings. Tory Lanez's emotional delivery reinforces this sense of vulnerability and longing, making the song resonate with anyone who has experienced similar situations of rejection.
