“Oracle,” is about wanting someone that you will never have. Wanting to be with someone that you’ve known forever, wishing that they were yours but you’ve missed the chance to make them yours and now you’re bittersweet.
Through out the song, it explains how you know this person, how you two can talk...
[Verse 1]
I take your wrist
I see your fate in the palm of your hand
See your first kiss
See the, see the day they lower you into the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
I said he’d always be lost, girl
I said he’d only do wrong to you
You said you tried to leave him
But the love was too strong
[Chorus]
That was all I needed to hear
No, you’ll never be mine
No, I’ve never felt so bittersweet
When I’m reading between the lines
That was all I needed to see
Read it on the palm of your hand
I sealed my fate when I looked underneath
And found your love for another man
[Verse 2]
Crystal clear, I’ve never met someone like you
So easy to read
Your soul is at peace
Everybody, you’re consuming me
[Bridge]
Baby, I’m a mind reader
You can let me in
We can go a little deeper
You can spread me thin
[Pre-Chorus]
You know I’m only looking for your good side
I don’t wanna be there when it’s not
I will open your mind, and purify
Make you cherish what you got
[Chorus]
That was all I needed to hear
No, you’ll never be mine
No, I’ve never felt so bittersweet
When I’m reading between the lines
That was all I needed to see
Read it on the palm of your hand
I sealed my fate when I looked underneath
And found your love for another man
[Outro]
That was all I needed to hear
That was all I needed to hear
