Lyrics
I've tried playing it cool
The speaker attempted to appear calm or nonchalant
But when I'm looking at you
When observing the person addressed
I can't ever be brave cause
They find it hard to summon courage because
You make my heart race
The individual accelerates their heartbeat
Shot me out of the sky, you're my kryptonite
Metaphorical reference comparing the person to kryptonite, weakening the speaker
You keep making me weak, yeah
The person continuously weakens the speaker emotionally
Frozen and can't breathe
Resulting in a state of paralysis, unable to breathe
Something's gotta give now
Expresses a breaking point approaching
Cause I'm dying just to make you see
The speaker intensely desires the person to understand
That I need you here with me now
The urgency for the person's presence
Cause you've got that one thing
Attributes a distinctive quality to the person
So get out, get out, get out of my head
Wants the person's thoughts to leave their mind
And fall into my arms instead
Invites the person to embrace them instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
Admits uncertainty about what captivates them
But I need that one thing and
Expresses a strong need for that captivating element
You've got that one thing
Confirms the person possesses that captivating element
Now I'm climbing the walls but
Feeling restless and anxious
You don't notice at all
Despite the speaker's turmoil, the person remains oblivious
That I'm going out of my mind, yeah
The speaker feels consumed by thoughts of the person
All day and all night
Obsessed throughout the entire day and night
Something's gotta give now
Reiterates an impending breaking point
Cause I'm dying just to make you see
The speaker yearns desperately for understanding
And I need you here with me now
Reiterates the urgency of the person's presence
Cause you've got that one thing
Reaffirms the person's possession of a unique quality
So get out, get out, get out of my head
Desires to free oneself from thoughts of the person
And fall into my arms instead
Invites the person to embrace them instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
Expresses uncertainty about the captivating element
But I need that one thing
Strongly desires that captivating element
So get out, get out, get out of my mind
Wants the person's thoughts to depart
And come on, come into my life
Urges the person to enter their life
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
Uncertainty about the captivating element persists
But I need that one thing and
Emphasizes the intense need for that captivating element
You've got that one thing
Confirms the person's possession of that captivating element
You've got that one thing
Reiterates the person's possession of the unique quality
And you've got that one thing
Emphasizes once more the possession of the unique quality
