The song’s title is a clever play on words. Instead of hurricane (the natural disaster), it’s hericane. The girl in the song is about is a walking tornado, causing damage and destruction.
The singer is hoping for a better future and notes that it’s a possibility if allowed. “Hericane” pleads for ch...
[Verse 1]
I don't know when this tornado hit
You're from the east coast, so let's both call it
A hurricane
A hericane
Pacin' through the, the back of my mind
Maybe you've been a storm all this time
A hurricane
A hericane
[Pre-Chorus]
Stop all this sin
Be born again
If you want to, if you want to
[Chorus]
'Cause our home's a wreck, look at this mess
You blame it on disobedience
But I think it's time, time you realized
You're the one in the wrong
[Verse 2]
Oklahoma, this time of year
California, it's different out here
No hericane
No hericane
I'm not runnin' from all my pain
But it can't go, go without sayin'
No hericane
No hericane
[Pre-Chorus]
Stop all this sin
Start over again
If you want to, if you want to
[Chorus]
'Cause our home's a wreck, look at this mess
You blame it on disobedience
But I think it's time, time you realized
You're the one in the wrong
Caught in the midst of your insecure winds
Breakin' us down and wearin' us thin
But I love you still, I always will
But you're the one in the wrong
[Bridge]
I know your heart hurts the most at 3 AM
I know he left before you could even know him
I've done my best to carry all this weight
I love you still, I always will, but this needs to change
[Chorus]
'Cause our home's a wreck, look at this mess
You blame it on disobedience
But I think it's time, time you realized
You're the one in the wrong
Caught in the midst of your insecure winds
Breakin' us down and wearin' us thin
But I love you still, I always will
But you're the one in the wrong
[Outro]
I love you still, I always will
You're the one in the wrong
I love you still, I always will
Even though you are wrong
Hericane was written by Les Priest & Jake Goss & Paul Jason Klein.
Hericane was produced by LANY.
In an interview with Australian blog The Interns, the band cited “Hericane” as one of their favorite songs to perform live:
“Hericane” is always so powerful, we end our set with that and it’s just such a moment…“Hericane” is definitely one of my favourites or “Hurts” is pretty fun to play aswell.
No. Paul Klein and Dua Lipa were not in a romantic relationship when LANY was stated to have written this track.
It can be inferred that this song is about a lover as it clearly insinuates a romantic connection.
