Soaked
benee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, Ooh

My tongue is sealed within my mouth
These certain words they can't come out
These thoughts are walking on their own
Dancing around with no control

I know what I did to you was wrong
Hence why I've kept it for this long
Secrets have been brewing up a storm
Did not expect it to transform

Soaked up in my brain
For another day
These things I'm tryna say get drenched and swept away that's the truth
Soaked up in my brain
Don't know what to say
Something about you boy you soak up half my brain, yes you do
Ooh, ooh, something about you boy you soak up half my brain

You look at me like I hit you, ooh
Stole all your things then left you bruised, ooh
Look what I've got myself into, ooh
My words are stuck, my body too, ooh

I know what I did to you was wrong (know what I did to you was wrong)
Hence why I've kept it for this long (so long, so long)
Secrets have been brewing up a storm (a storm)
Did not expect it to transform

Soaked up in my brain
For another day
These things I'm tryna say get drenched and swept away that's the truth
Soaked up in my brain
Don't know what to say
Something about you boy you soak up half my brain, yes you do
Ooh, ooh something about you boy you soak up half my brain yes you do
Ooh, ooh
Something about you boy you soak up half my brain yes you do

I know what I did to you was wrong (know what I did to you was wrong)
Hence why I've kept it for this long (so long, so long)
Secrets have been brewing up a storm (a storm)
Did not expect it to transform (transform)

Soaked up in my brain
For another day
These things I'm tryna say get drenched and swept away that's the truth
Soaked up in my brain
Don't know what to say
Something about you boy you soak up half my brain, yes you do
Ooh, ooh something about you boy you soak up half my brain yes you do
Ooh, ooh
Something about you boy you soak up half my brain yes you do





Ooh, ooh
