uli-k Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't really know what to say
But you got me here fucked up
I don't what to tell you buttercup
Yeah, I got these texts on my mind
Don't know what to say
But the words are so fucking hard to find
I don't really wish for too much
I just got you on my mind, buttercup
Wish I wasn't here so fucked up
Wish we could get along
Just like how my words rhyme
But we ran out of time, ay
Now things have gone so fucking lime
Don't know what to say
But I'm out of fucking time
Got me fucked up
Got me fucked up
Liquor in my cup
Liquor in my cup
Tell me what's up
Tell me what's up
Did I fuck up
Did I fuck up
Think I fucked up
Think I fucked up, ay
Now I got you on my dome
Don't know what to say
Don't know where to roam
I just want to go back home
But I'm all alone (Ay)
I just wanna go back home, ay
Don't know what to say
Don't know where to roam
I'm all alone
Congratulations, Post Malone
Just fucked up
Now I'm all alone
Don't know what to say
Don't know where to roam
I just want to go back home with you
I don't know what to say
I just want us two
Wish we could do it
Just me and you
But we fucked up
Now it's just me without you
Without you
(Without you, without you)
Without you
(Without you, without you)
Without you
(Without you, without you)
Without you
(Without you, without you)
Now it's just me
Without you
I wish
It was us two
Think I fucked up
Think I fucked up
Don't know what's up
Don't know what's up
Got this liquor in my cup
Got this liquor in my cup
Tell me what's up
Tell me what's up
Wish I knew it though
Wish I knew it though
Where to go
Where to go
In the dark I roam




In the dark I roam
In the dark I roam, ay

Overall Meaning

The uli-k song "Wish" explores the feeling of regret in a relationship where the singer is left alone with a feeling of uncertainty. The lyrics are filled with contradictions and confusion with the singer not knowing what to say or what to do. The refrain of "I don't know what to say, I just want us two" implies a longing to make things right and to find a way to reconcile, but the singer acknowledges that they have messed up and got themselves into a situation where they are alone with their thoughts and regrets.


The use of "buttercup" is a term of endearment, which shows that the singer does have affection for their partner, and the repetition of "without you" emphasizes their feelings of loss and emptiness. The reference to Post Malone's "Congratulations" at the end adds another layer of meaning to the song, suggesting that the singer's regrets are tied to some kind of success they have achieved but at the cost of their relationship.


Overall, "Wish" is a powerful exploration of the complexities of love and regret, and the pain that can result from not being able to express oneself fully or make the right choices in a relationship.
