JEFFE‘s raw sincerity has always been a hallmark of her artistry, but with Closure, she takes introspection to a whole new level.
The single doesn’t merely touch on personal struggle; it feels like a sonic autobiography—one that refuses to settle on a single mood or genre.
The track opens with a mid-tempo beat and a piano melody, painting a backdrop of quiet reflection.
JEFFE’s voice enters,weary but resolute. Just when you think you’re wading in a ballad of despair, the pre-chorus kicks in – the beat intensifies, and hope flickers to life.
Yet, that same hope isn’t blinding optimism. It’s laced with an understanding of life’s chaotic rhythm.
This isn’t just a song about finding closure; it enacts the struggle to get there.
The bridge throws a fresh curveball—rapid-fire lyrics that mirror the process of unravelling problems and seeking solutions.
It’s a relentless drive for control amidst the uncontrollable.
The song’s shapeshifting reflects JEFFE’s own self-described journey, a chat with “the hurt little girl inside.”
If you think the metaphor of the ceiling scratch as a confidante seems odd, well, that’s the point.
Real self-healing isn’t about pretty words and inspirational posters. It’s messy, it’s lonely, and it’s finding support in the strangest corners of your own mind.
And perhaps the most striking element of Closure is the way JEFFE embraces the messiness of that process.
Take her unique metaphor of a “scratch on the ceiling” as a confidante. It’s a tangible reminder that even as we heal, our scars (those internal imperfections) remain a part of us.
Yet, in talking to this scratch, JEFFE reveals a radical acceptance. Her declaration, “Call it my chaos, but I know I can trust her,” isn’t a surrender to turmoil.
It’s a defiant act of owning her struggle and finding understanding (and therefore a degree of control) within that chaotic space.
This acceptance echoes in the track’s unpredictable shifts. The mid-tempo beat, the yearning piano—it never quite settles.
This mirrors the reality that healing isn’t linear. There are moments of quiet reflection, bursts of determined energy, and even revisiting old wounds.
Closure becomes an anthem for those navigating this complex terrain, a reminder that the end goal isn’t the erasure of pain but a newfound coexistence with it.
It’s about finding strength amidst the continuing storm, not after it subsides.
While Closure isn’t necessarily a dance-floor anthem, its shifting beats and emotional complexity make it a track you’ll revisit often.
Each listen might reveal a different mood, a new lyric that hits home.
This is more than catharsis via pop song; it’s an invitation into the ever-changing process of becoming whole after being broken.

JEFFE Closure Lyrics
Verse 1
When we get what we want
We begin to belong
We forget where we’re from in the end
And we’re shaping the past
As we’re breaking apart
But we’ve all got our ways to mend
Pre Chorus
Yeah we just got started
And we won’t stop falling
Look like it getting better X2
Chorus
I had a talk with
The scratch on my ceiling
She’s not been listening
Locked up in broken
Call it my chaos
But I know I can trust her
Now we’ve adjusted
I think this is Closure I think this
Verse 2
All the time that it takes
To forget our mistakes
And the steps that we take to be fine
I refuse to believe
That there’s no other way
And I’d rather be grateful than blind
(rather be grateful than blind)
Pre Chorus
Yeah we just got started
And we won’t stop falling
Look like it getting better X2
Chorus
I had a talk with
The scratch on my ceiling
She’s not been listening
Locked up in broken
Call it my chaos
But I know I can trust her
Now we’ve adjusted
I think this is Closure I think this

Finally figured my problems
Ways to ways to solve ‘em
Finally fighting resistance
Ways to beat the system
Finally figured my problems
Ways to ways to solve ‘em
Finally fighting resistance
Ways to beat the
Pre Chorus
Yeah we just got started
And we won’t stop falling
Look like it getting better X2
Chorus
I had a talk with
The scratch on my ceiling
She’s not been listening
Locked up in broken
Call it my chaos
But I know I can trust her
Now we’ve adjusted
I think this is Closure I think this
