About This Track

'Bloom' by Matilda Mann is a Pop track from the 2021 EP 'Sonder - EP'. In the lyrics, the singer warns against surprise, describing a moment of waking to find no one to hold, with the sense that they are in the way. The verses linger on feeling out of place, culminating in a mood that is “gettin' old” rather than new, and the vocal phrasing sits inside a looping, rhythm-forward intro that frames the uneasy, self-diminishing admission.

"Bloom" is a track by Matilda Mann, from the album Sonder - EP, released 23rd September 2021. The track is 2:46 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 18 articles about Matilda Mann.

Lyrics

Bloom

[Intro]

Duh-duh-duh-dum (Duh-duh-duh-dum)

Duh-duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-dum

Duh-duh-duh-dum (Duh-duh-dum)

[Verse 1]

Don't be surprised when you open your eyes

And you find there's no one to hold

Thought I could stay but I'm just in the way

And this feeling's now gettin' old

[Pre-Chorus]

Too young to make our promises made

That I'll go wherever you go

Safer to stay and wait for the day

'Cause I'll do it better alone

[Chorus]

I'd like to stay and make it all okay

But it's just too soon and it's not me or you

Tell me if it's strange, and I'm maybe deranged

And you think it's a phase but I know that it's not

I met you too soon for anything to bloom

[Verse 2]

Don't be surprised when you open your eyes

And you find I'm suddenly gone

Gave you the signs and I walked on the line

For far too long

[Pre-Chorus]

Too young to make our promises made

That I'll go wherever you go

Safer to stay and wait for the day

'Cause I'll do it better alone

[Chorus]

I'd like to stay and make it all okay

But it's just too soon and it's not me or you

Tell me if it's strange, and I'm maybe deranged

And you think it's a phase but I know that it's not

I met you too soon for anything to bloom

[Bridge]

Duh-duh-duh-dum (Duh-duh-duh-dum)

Duh-duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-dum

Duh-duh-duh-dum (Duh-duh-dum)

Duh-duh-duh-dum (Duh-duh-duh-dum)

Duh-duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-dum

Duh-duh-duh-dum (Duh-duh-dum)

[Chorus]

I'd like to stay and make it all okay

But it's just too soon and it's not me or you

Tell me if it's strange, and I'm maybe deranged

And you think it's a phase but I know that it's not

I met you too soon for anything to bloom
