Official lyric video for “Autumn” by NIKI

I carved my name into your ribcage
We talked of lands away from this cage
You said, don’t fret love, someday I’ll be my own man, I'll be free
Oh, but darling did you mean
Darling, did you mean free from me?

You promised home
The kind I'd never known, oh
But here we are, skin and flesh and beating hearts
and I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong
You said, “Let's make ourselves our very own brigade, this love our shield, our blade”
Oh, but darling do you see the cuts from which I bleed?
It’s me you’ve slain

I didn’t obliterate these walls for you to come and raid my home
And here you are right next to me
Ironically, I've never felt more alone

I fell for you faster than I fell apart
And I guess I'm the one to blame for letting myself fall too hard
I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands in hopes that we’d put up a fight
How paradoxical, since now all I can think about is when will we stop trying
Ooh

Oooh, how do we stay afloat
When do I let go?

All you do is blindside me, it's hard to be brave
But when the night cuts into the day, it’s your love I crave
I must’ve thanked my lucky stars too much,
they left me sitting in too much dust

You know all my dreams
You were one, so it seemed
And I love you but with you
It's heartache I breathe
You gave it your all, just with everything you took from me

Oh, my love
Is this the end for us?
Maybe we’ve had enoughI carved my name into your ribcage
We talked of lands away from this cage
You said, “Don’t fret love, someday I’ll be my own man, I'll be free”
Oh, but darling did you mean
Darling, did you mean free from me?

You promised home
The kind I'd never known, oh
But here we are, skin and flesh and beating hearts
and I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong
You said, “Let's make ourselves our very own brigade, this love our shield, our blade”
Oh, but darling do you see the cuts from which I bleed?
It’s me you’ve slain

I didn’t obliterate these walls for you to come and raid my home
And here you are right next to me
Ironically, I've never felt more alone

I fell for you faster than I fell apart
And I guess I'm the one to blame for letting myself fall too hard
I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands in hopes that we’d put up a fight
How paradoxical, since now all I can think about is when will we stop trying
Ooh

Oooh, how do we stay afloat?
When do I let go?

All you do is blindside me, it's hard to be brave
But when the night cuts into the day, it’s your love I crave
I must’ve thanked my lucky stars too much,
they left me sitting in too much dust

You know all my dreams
You were one, so it seemed
And I love you but with you
It's heartache I breathe
You gave it your all, just with everything you took from me

Oh, my love
Is this the end for us?
Maybe we’ve had enough

[minorchord]

also can we appreciate young nic not repeating a single line in this song and still making it so deep, relatable and catchy

[AsherSalkewicz]

I can understand this feeling that's why I got away from it before it could ever take hold after all it was a lie from the start: )

[fhour]

This is was my favorite one, I'm so happy she added this on Nicole🥹🤍

[paramitadaniswari]

"You know all my dreams, you were one, so it seemed
And I love you but with you, It's heartache I breathe"
omg hits me hard 😭

[jesh]

I'm crying. "I fell for you faster than I fell apart" "I ripped my heart out and put in your hands in hopes that we'd put up a fight". wow. just WOW

[jejemarsh]

"You showed me your heart but you never let me have the key."

became

"You gave it your all, just with everything you took from me."

same pain 🤧🤧🤧

[ash-cqtn]

I really love the entire song, especially the bridge. I was about to float when autumn's bridge kicks in. I have no words, just wow.

[aurowruh]

she's such an amazing writer it's crazy

[potatotenshi]

"how do we stay afloat?
when do i let go?"

the lyrics hits so hard omygod

[jennaaaxoxo]

Niki's music is so well made, she never fails to impress me with it.

[Reylandson]

This encapsulates the autumn love so well. To me, it's about falling in love and trying to protect it with all you've got, but forgetting that being too defensive also leads to barriers, miscommunication and anxiety.

[itsmaxene]

the line "I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands in hopes that we'd put up a fight" really hits different, it's just insane how she could put up those words with much power in it.

[lalandrien]

The old version of Autumn will be missed 4 ever, I'll treasure u in my heart 😭

[anisyamay]

Niki udh punya lagu baru aku masih kejebak disini

[furra]

'you gave it your all, just with everything you took from me' my jaw literally dropped. i'd kill to listen to this song again for the first time. nicole, your songwriting skills have me in absolute pieces right now, its both a blessing and a beautiful curse

[emmanmayor]

undoubtedly, the best track on the album

[prueclemente]

"i ripped my heart out and put it in your hands in hopes that we'd put up a fight" gosh that line is insane, niki's songwriting is unmatched and "nicole" has brought me to tears as expected. thank you for this album niki 🤍

[luthfiyanaifaputri]

"you know all my dreams. you were one, so it seemed. and i love you, but with you its heartache I breathe" hurts baaaddly</3

[simranghotra]

"But when the night cuts into the day, it’s your love I crave" im sobbing 😭😭

I carved my name into your ribcage
We talked of lands away from this cage
You said, "Don't fret love, someday I'll be my own man, I'll be free"
Oh, but darlin' did you mean, darlin', did you mean free from me?
You promised home
The kind I'd never known, oh
But here we are, skin and flesh and beating hearts
And I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong
You said, "Let's make ourselves our very own brigade
This love our shield, our blade"
Oh, but darlin', do you see the cuts from which I bleed?
It's me you've slain
I didn't obliterate these walls for you
To come and raid my home
And here you are right next to me
Ironically, I've never felt more alone
I fell for you faster than I fell apart
And I guess I'm the one to blame
For letting myself fall too hard
I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands
In hopes that we'd put up a fight
How paradoxical
Since now all I can think about
Is when will we stop trying
Oh
Oh-oh-oh
How do we stay afloat?
When do I let go?
All you do is blindside me, it's hard to be brave
But when the night cuts into the day, it's your love I crave
I must've thanked my lucky stars too much
They left me sitting in too much dust, mmm, oh
You know all my dreams
You were one, so it seemed
And I love you but with you
It's heartache I breathe
You gave it your all
Just with everything you took from me
Oh, my love
Is this the end for us?
Maybe we've had enough
