- Joy Lyrics

Stood in the rain and watched you go
I feel a lump in my throat
And this is far from joy

I never seemed to learn
That high makes things harder
That high I get from you

I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
I think it's time to run cause I'm seeing stars
I'm seeing stars watch me fall apart

I think of dying all the time

But I've got joy to take my side
Fear is my favorite ride ooh hey hoh

I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
I think it's time to run cause I'm seeing stars
I'm seeing stars watch me fall apart

And then you see, oooh

I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
I think it's time to run cause I'm seeing stars
I'm seeing stars watch me fall apart

What is the meaning behind Joy lyrics?


When we consider what the writer meant by those haunting lines, Ellie Goulding's 'JOY' takes a deep dive into the tough journey of searching for happiness post-separation, pointing out that the ultimate joy is not linked to a person who brings pain. Joy's lyrics primarily speak of heartbreak, angst, reflection, despair and empowerment. However, the song is simultaneously saying that heartbreak, self-realization and emotional turmoil are the required steps to getting to the light. The lyrics portray emotional distress, allude to dying and use very strong emotional language which could be quite heavy for the younger crowd. These elements lead to the conclusion of a PG-13 rating where the parents are strongly cautioned regarding the content.
