Occupy your mind, don't stay home
Talk to all your friends, but don't look at your phone
Scream into a bag, try to turn your brain off
Make a herbal tea, don't throw up
Remember how to breathe, maybe try and f*ck
Stay away from love, maybe take your clothes off
'Cause you got me good
And I feel so stupid
And now we're doing it all the time
We only have the night
We only have the
Take a day off work, call your mum
Have a glass of wine, stay away from fun
Pretend like you don't care, pretend to take the night off
Try to get some sleep, no caffeine
Go and see Louise, maybe watch TV
Don't forget to wash, don't become a write-off
'Cause you got me good
And I feel so stupid
And now we're doing it all the time
We only have the night
We only have the
'Cause you got me good
And I feel so stupid
Now we're doing it all the time
We only have the night
We only have the
The lyrics to Marika Hackman's song "No Caffeine" seem to reflect a sense of restlessness, self-awareness, and a desire to escape or distract oneself from intense emotions. The opening lines suggest a need for mental stimulation and social interaction, urging the listener to engage with their surroundings and avoid being consumed by technology. The reference to screaming into a bag and trying to silence the mind with herbal tea hints at attempting to cope with overwhelming thoughts and emotions, perhaps in a less conventional or healthy manner.
The lyrics also touch upon themes of intimacy and vulnerability, with phrases like "maybe try and f*ck" and "stay away from love, maybe take your clothes off." These lines suggest a struggle with physical and emotional boundaries, as well as a desire for connection but also a fear of being hurt or exposed. There is a sense of contradiction and confusion in these lines, highlighting the complexities of human relationships and desires.
The repetition of the lines "'Cause you got me good, And I feel so stupid" throughout the song reinforces a sense of being ensnared or entangled in a situation that the singer may feel regretful or foolish about. This could hint at a toxic or intense relationship that the singer is unable to break free from, despite recognizing its negative impact on their well-being.
The chorus of the song, with the lines "Now we're doing it all the time, We only have the night, We only have the," suggests a sense of temporality and fleetingness, emphasizing the transient nature of the experiences being described. The repetition of these lines adds to the feeling of urgency and impermanence, as if the singer is grappling with the passing of time and the limitations of the present moment. Overall, the lyrics of "No Caffeine" seem to convey a mix of introspection, longing, and a struggle to navigate complex emotions and relationships in the face of uncertainty.
Occupy your mind, don't stay home
Engage your thoughts, don't isolate yourself
Talk to all your friends, but don't look at your phone
Socialize, but be present in the moment
Scream into a bag, try to turn your brain off
Release your emotions, attempt to quiet your mind
Make a herbal tea, don't throw up
Relax with a calming drink, don't be anxious
Remember how to breathe, maybe try and f*ck
Focus on your breath, perhaps engage in intimacy
Stay away from love, maybe take your clothes off
Avoid emotional entanglements, consider letting loose
'Cause you got me good, And I feel so stupid
You affected me deeply, and I feel foolish
Now we're doing it all the time, We only have the night
We're engaging continuously, time is limited
Take a day off work, call your mum
Relax from work, reach out to your mother
Have a glass of wine, stay away from fun
Enjoy a drink, avoid reckless behavior
Pretend like you don't care, pretend to take the night off
Act indifferent, fake relaxation
Try to get some sleep, no caffeine
Strive for rest, avoid stimulants
Go and see Louise, maybe watch TV
Visit Louise, perhaps watch television
Don't forget to wash, don't become a write-off
Remember personal hygiene, avoid being written off
