Coffee Lyrics Meaning

[Part I]
[Chorus]

In this chorus, the singer expresses confusion and frustration in a relationship. They want someone to stay and be honest with them, but the situation feels disconnected. The speaker suspects the person wants to leave and that the relationship is headed in an awkward direction. There’s a feeling of being misunderstood, especially when the singer mentions feeling different, even googling how to be “normal” in high school. This part highlights a sense of confusion about their feelings and emotions.

[Verse 1]

In this verse, the singer reflects on their struggles to express themselves without fear of judgment or losing everything. They’re dealing with internal conflict, like the fear of “crashing out” or “breaking up” with themselves. They feel like they’re losing faith in who they once were and are becoming something they despise. The verse also shows guilt or regret, as the singer acknowledges they may be unloading too much emotional baggage (“trauma dump”).

[Chorus]

This chorus repeats the earlier confusion and frustration, but adds more depth to the singer’s feelings of being different. They continue to ask for honesty and clarity in a relationship, but they also feel like they don’t belong. The mention of being “autistic” suggests they struggle with social norms and feel isolated in their experience. The recurring question about what others want and how to feel shows their ongoing internal struggle, especially in trying to navigate relationships and identity.

[Verse 2]

In this verse, the singer talks about shedding a “mask” or false identity, possibly in their public life. The “label” dropping hints at them leaving behind some identity or persona, but it comes with complications (like a “buyback clause” in contracts). The singer feels detached from their past, expressing relief that certain people are no longer in their life. They also mention moving on from past conflicts and performing their music freely, signaling a shift toward self-expression and independence.

[Chorus]

This final chorus amplifies the themes of confusion and feeling out of place. The singer is still asking for honesty in a relationship, and they continue to express their struggles with identity. There’s a feeling of being misunderstood, especially when dealing with complex emotions like wanting someone to stay, but also feeling different and disconnected. The repeated lines about being “autistic” and not fitting in show an ongoing battle with self-acceptance and navigating societal expectations.

[Bridge]

The bridge is a brief plea for clarity in the relationship. The singer questions why the person can’t be honest and just express what they want, whether it’s staying or leaving. There’s a sense of uncertainty about where the relationship is heading.

[Interlude]

This part introduces a cynical view of societal norms and labels. The singer sarcastically mentions “coc*ine vegans” and “champagne socialists,” criticizing people who live by seemingly contradictory values. They also suggest that it’s impossible to be objective about certain things in life, ultimately tying this back to the idea of believing in something higher, like God. This interlude hints at frustration with social hypocrisy and the search for meaning.

[Part II]
[Outro]

The outro brings a feeling of reflection and loss. The image of watching parachutes fall while feeling physically or emotionally incapacitated (“lost both your legs”) symbolizes a sense of vulnerability and defeat. The singer recalls a time when they had everything, but now they feel disconnected from that past. The mention of being “acquitted” could suggest a hope for redemption or release from struggles, but there’s also a sense of resignation, as if they’re only truly understood by their mother.
