Without Love
Embracing Desolation: Alice Glass Questions Worth and Self-Worth
Lyrics
Am I worth it or am I worthless?
Questioning self-worth, unsure if valued or worthless
And will I ever figure it out?
Uncertain about figuring out one's worth
Sold myself to him
Metaphorically sold oneself to someone
Be my own victim
Choosing to be a victim of one's own actions
And with this bondage
Reference to a restrictive and controlling situation
Tie myself down
Voluntarily restraining oneself
How are you gonna lie about me now?
Questioning how others will spread false information
I see you watching me from underground
Sensing observation or judgment from a hidden place
What's the strangest way you can't be found?
Asking about unconventional ways of avoiding detection
How are you gonna lie?
Repeated inquiry about dishonesty
How are you gonna lie?
-Got to be without love
Emphasizing the necessity of being without love
Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
Reiteration of the need to be without love
Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Is it hidden beneath the surface?
Wondering if a hidden truth exists
Sew my lips 'til it won't come out
Symbolic act of silence or suppression
Sold myself further and tell it to you
Further selling oneself and sharing with someone
Can I suffer? I won't make a sound
Willingness to endure suffering silently
How are you gonna lie about me now?
Anticipation of false information being spread
I see you watching me from underground
Observation from a concealed or secretive place
What's the strangest way you can't be found?
Questioning unconventional ways of remaining hidden
How are you gonna lie?
Repeated questioning of dishonesty
How are you gonna lie?
-Got to be without love
Reiteration of the necessity to be without love
Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-I want a weak chance
Desire for a slim opportunity or hope
I wanna be the one to
Expressing a desire not to be just seen as physical
I want a weak chance
Reiteration of the desire for a slim chance
I'm not just body tissue
Asserting individuality beyond physical existence
I wanna play pretend
Expressing a wish for make-believe or escapism
I don't wanna see tomorrow
Rejecting the future, possibly due to pain
Tell me where to spit
Asking for control over actions and choices
Don't tell me what to swallow
-How are you gonna lie about me now?
Continued concern about dishonest representation
I see you watching me from underground
-What's the strangest way you can't be found?
-How are you gonna lie?
-How are you gonna lie?
-Got to be without love
Persistently emphasizing the need to be without love
Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
-Got to be without love
