Заплаканная (Weeping) Lyrics – MONA

Заплаканная (Weeping) Lyrics Meaning

[Припев]
In the chorus, the singer describes a sorrowful ride home in a taxi, crying over the realization that her partner was just like everyone else she had trusted before. She reflects on her past hopes, believing he was different, but now sees him as no better than those who let her down in the past. This repeated heartbreak leaves her feeling broken, teaching her to approach relationships more rationally, to end things cleanly rather than dragging out hope.

[Куплет 1]
In the first verse, she admits how hard it is to deal with the loss of this relationship and silently wishes for some sign that he, too, is struggling. Everywhere she goes, she searches for someone who resembles him, feeling haunted by his memory. Despite her promises of loyalty, she feels a sense of betrayal, possibly even towards herself, for not seeing the truth sooner. She knows that if they can’t make things work now, reconciliation in the future is unlikely. The singer longs to leave the pain behind without a drawn-out goodbye, realizing that her tears expose her vulnerabilities. Although she craves reaching out to him, she decides to call her mom instead, looking for comfort from someone she can trust unconditionally.

[Припев]
The chorus repeats, reinforcing the feeling of sadness and disillusionment. She reflects again on her mistaken belief that this person would be different from others in her past, only to find herself broken once more. The repetition underlines the cycle of hurt and disappointment, driving home her need to move forward with clarity and purpose.

[Куплет 2]
In the second verse, she continues to wrestle with letting go, recognizing that her physical reactions show she’s still holding onto him, even as she wishes she could release him from her heart. She heads into the metro, physically stumbling—a metaphor for her emotional instability—knowing she’s still unable to change her feelings despite her efforts. As she avoids the familiar places tied to him, she realizes that leaving the past behind is a painful but necessary step. Yet, even as she tries, she finds it almost impossible. She imagines him with others, which adds to her pain, but knows she must let go, staying silent rather than chasing him.

[Припев]
The chorus closes the song, echoing the same lines to emphasize her heartache and the repeated pattern of hoping, only to be disappointed. She’s left in tears, driving home, and feeling the weight of broken promises and the need to protect her heart by moving on, wiser from the experience yet bruised by it all.
