About This Track

Ningning builds 'Bored!' around a paradox: the rush of falling for someone, and the certainty that the feeling will fade. The track moves through cycles of attraction and restlessness, each chorus arriving with the same admission: "I always come in hardcore / And love you 'til the day I'm bored". It's not cruelty so much as a kind of honest fatalism, a recognition that intensity and impermanence are locked together in her emotional life. The production keeps pace with that contradiction. Verses drift between conversational and rhythmic, the beat minimal enough to let her voice carry the weight of contradiction. When the chorus hits, it swells into something almost euphoric, the kind of rush the lyrics describe, before the bridge pulls back to something more vulnerable: "I could never be your somebody / You could never be my somebody". By the final repetition of the chorus, that tension between the high and the admission of boredom has become the whole point. Ningning doesn't resolve it; she lives inside it.

"Bored!" is a track by NINGNING, from the album SYNK : PARALLEL LINE, released 9th October 2024. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Bored!

[Verse 1]

I'm so pretty in your head boy, yeah

Picking flowers, put 'em right behind my ear

Eyes catch you daydreamin'

Look at the signs, love as advertised (Lub-dub)

Feel the caffeine kickin' in, uh (Hey)

Episodic, visionary

Hit it like on mission

No used and recycled lines

[Pre-Chorus]

Am I messing with you

When falling for you, falling for you?

(But I'm not the one to keep)

Falling for you, falling for you, lovin' with you

[Chorus]

Takin' up a good rush, don't try to fight it

Paradise on Venus in your eyes

I always come in hardcore

And love you 'til the day I'm bored

Takin' up a new rush, I can't deny it

Turning your hellos into goodbyes

I always come in hardcore

Love 'til the end of the road then I tend to get bored

[Verse 2]

Better, better, always out for something better, be-better

Uh, I just wanna feel the way I felt the day we met

I keep falling for the feeling

But the feeling finds a way to go away

So tell me where it goes out of my body

We're still pretty in my head

Keep picking flowers, babe

I should've said it before I got bored

[Pre-Chorus]

I was messing with you

When falling for you, falling for you

(But I'm not the one to keep)

Falling for you, falling for you, lovin' with you

[Chorus]

Takin' up a good rush, don't try to fight it

Paradise on Venus in your eyes

I always come in hardcore

And love you 'til the day I'm bored

Takin' up a new rush, I can't deny it

Turning your hellos into goodbyes

I always come in hardcore

Love 'til the end of the road then I tend to get bored

[Bridge]

I could never be your somebody

You could never be my somebody

Yeah, maybe it's on me, I should’ve said it before

But I tend to get bored

[Chorus]

Takin' up a good rush, don't try to fight it

Paradise on Venus in your eyes (Paradise in your eyes)

I always come in hardcore

And love you 'til the day I'm bored

Takin' up a new rush, I can't deny it

Turning your hellos into goodbyes (Into goodbyes, into goodbyes)

I always come in hardcore

Love 'til the end of the road then I tend to get bored
