Jaded
nimmo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Saturdays are jaded and you're always on my mind
Signature drinks, so dignified
standing in this new age and I'm in a drifting tide
and my cool delight but my gesture's blind
I want your time, my mind
An empty head with your warmth in my bed
It seems I'm blessed and yet faithless.
Outrun this farce, and I'll know that you feel
What's done is past, and I know that you feel it.
Its harder to see it
Holy casanova in my system
hardened by the dreams I left behind
Then you're stole away and I see that I'm faceless
Rolling over for my only vision, focus feeling wary in my eyes.
Then I fall away- I can see how the space lies.
Tough love/ Soft touch
Give me it all when my soul is to let
This silhouette has some colors to sketch now
Outrun this farce, and I'll know that you feel
What's done is past, and I know that you feel it.
Its harder to see it
Your time, my mind
Outrun this farce, and I'll know that you feel




What's done is past, and I know that you feel it.
Its harder to see it

Overall Meaning

The opening line of "Saturdays are jaded and you're always on my mind" sets the tone of Nimmo's song "Jaded". The lyrics suggest that the singer is feeling stuck, possibly in a relationship or situation that is no longer fulfilling. The reference to "signature drinks" and "dignified" suggests a sense of privilege or affluence, but beneath the surface lies a feeling of restlessness and a desire for something more meaningful. The line "hardened by the dreams I left behind" also hints at a sense of missed opportunities or regrets.


As the song progresses, the singer expresses a yearning for connection and intimacy, but also acknowledges their own limitations - "my gesture's blind" and "an empty head with your warmth in my bed" suggest a lack of emotional depth. At the same time, the singer seems to feel conflicted about their own feelings - "It seems I'm blessed and yet faithless". The line "holy Casanova in my system" adds a religious undertone to the lyrics, perhaps suggesting a feeling of guilt or moral ambiguity.
