Overall Meaning

The lyrics to My Bloody Valentine's song Soon seem to be from the perspective of someone who has hurt a person they love, and is now begging for them to come back. The opening lines "Wake up, don't fear, I want to love you" suggest that the person they love is avoiding them, possibly because of something they did. The repetition of "doll of pain" could be interpreted as the person admitting to causing the other person pain, and feeling like they are bringing it upon themselves by allowing them to get close.


The second verse continues the plea for the person to come back, with lines like "don't be afraid of me" and "someone like you can find the reason of what I did to you". This suggests that the person is aware that they have done something wrong, but they don't know what it is or how to make it right.


The chorus repeats the same lines as the opening, emphasizing the desire for the person to come back and the pain of pushing them away. The final lines "Yeah yeah" almost sound like a desperate plea, as if the person is begging for forgiveness and a chance to make things right.


Overall, the lyrics to Soon are quite ambiguous, leaving a lot of room for interpretation. However, it seems clear that the song is about love, pain, and regret, and the complex feelings that can arise when a relationship goes wrong.

Many years ago, I went to an Urban Outfitters and while window shopping extremely overpriced clothes, I heard this hypnotizing sound. I couldnt figure out if it was, a guitar, a synth or a voice sample. Then I heard this sort of suuuuper reverby wet voice almost incomprehensible, jump on the song. I wish I could have afforded a phone with Shazam at that time, but instead I had to swallow my "coolness" and ask one of the workers there if she knew what was the song playing in the backround. She replied "Oh, I think it's My Bloody Valentine" That night I listened to every single record of theirs I could find on the internet. It changed my life.

By the way the song I heard that day was "I Only Said"
