GLADES is the the trio project of Sydney based musicians Karina, Cam and Joey, making their debut in mid 2015 with their single 'Falling Away’. The trio met in high school and are passionate about combining the melodic intricacy of Indie, with the catchiness of Pop; from the reverb-laden guitars of The xx to the synthscapes of CHVRCHES and the beats of Lorde.

glades Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got carried away by the tides of our hurt
I tread ever lightly on words that I'd say
So careful
Couldn't let them go to waste
Can you lend me something that I used to know?
I'm missing all that we used to do
Take me back before we burn out
You and me are running weightless
It's not sensible
We're making memories in the mayhem
You're showing me dangerous
Got me dancing fine lines
Way too venturous
Took me to cloud nine
We're running on fumes, still refusing to see
The signs that relentlessly tell us to leave
I'm holding to everything making us close
So carefully
I can't let this go to waste
Can you lend me something that I used to know?
I'm missing all that we used to do
Take me back before we burn out
You and me are running weightless
It's not sensible
We're making memories in the mayhem
You're showing me dangerous
Got me dancing fine lines
Way too venturous
Took me to cloud nine
There's danger by my side
It's dangerous if I look away
If I look away
There's danger by my side
It's dangerous if I look away
If I look away
Take me back before we burn out
You and me are running weightless
It's not sensible
We're making memories in the mayhem
You're showing me dangerous
Got me dancing fine lines
Way too venturous
Took me to cloud nine
You're showing me dangerous
Got me dancing fine lines
Way too venturous
Took me to cloud nine
The lyrics of Glades' song Dangerous talk about the danger of holding onto a relationship that is slowly burning out. The opening lyrics talk about how the couple fights over nothing and how their words have to be measured carefully. The lines 'Can you lend me something that I used to know? I'm missing all that we used to do' seem to imply that the relationship has lost its spark and the couple is trying to desperately hold onto the memories of the good times they shared. The chorus in the song takes a more positive and hopeful tone, with the singers wanting to relive the good times and make new memories "in the mayhem." The lines "It's not sensible" suggest that while they may be acting irresponsibly, their love is worth fighting for, and the dangerous feeling they have is worth the risk.
Later in the song, the lyrics take a more introspective turn, with the lines "We're running on fumes, still refusing to see the signs" suggest that while they may know deep down that they are in a doomed relationship, they continue to hold on, unable to let go. The danger in the relationship is personified as something that can't be avoided, and the singers seem to recognize that ignoring it will eventually lead to their downfall.
Overall, the song is about the danger of holding onto something that has already gone and the conflict between hanging on to the past and embracing a new future. The song's lyrics are beautifully written and poetic, with the use of the word 'mayhem' particularly striking as it suggests that even in chaos there is beauty and joy to be found.

Such is the nature of pop songs. Back in the 90s every pop song was basically four chords, G C D A.
