Let You In
Building Walls: Unveiling the Emotional Turmoil in Andrew Marshall's 'Let You In'
Lyrics
You can’t see
You are unaware of the impact you've had on me.
The mess you made of me and it’s
The consequences of your actions have left me in a state of chaos.
Fine by me
I accept the situation without complaint.
Fine by me
Reiterating acceptance of the current state.
You lie through your teeth
You deceive me with false expressions, and I trust your smiling facade.
A smile I believe will keep you
Your fake smile is what makes me believe you want to stay.
Here with me
Expressing a desire for your presence.
Here with me
Reiterating the longing for your company.
But I see the way you breathe
I notice the way you breathe, monopolizing the air I need for myself, yet I desire you desperately.
Taking all the air I need, I want you
Expressing a strong yearning for you.
Desperately
Reiterating the intense desire for your presence.
Desperately
Emphasizing the desperate need for you.
Oh, it’s hard without you
Expressing the difficulty of living without you.
I’m building a wall
I am creating emotional barriers.
So, if you ever call
If you attempt to reach out, I will resist.
I’ll never let you in
I won't allow you back into my life.
I can’t sleep
I am unable to sleep due to thoughts of whether you think about me.
‘Cause I wonder if you do, do you
Expressing doubt about your thoughts and feelings.
Think of me
Questioning if you remember me.
Think of me
Reiterating the uncertainty about being in your thoughts.
It scares me to think
Fearful of the possibility that you are the only thing I see after everything.
That after everything you’re still
After all we've been through, you still dominate my thoughts.
All I see
Emphasizing that you are the primary focus of my thoughts.
All I see
Reiterating that you are all I see.
Oh Girl, you messed me up
Your actions have left a lasting negative impact on me.
I’m building a wall
I am building emotional defenses to protect myself.
So, if you ever call
If you try to reconnect, I will resist.
I’ll never let you in
Reiterating the decision to keep you out.
You’re not the same
You have changed, and I no longer recognize the person I once knew.
Girl I used to know
Expressing a sense of loss for the person you used to be.
I never knew you
I never anticipated this transformation in you.
Oh and I’m not sure that I will
Expressing uncertainty about the future of our relationship.
But I’m still holding on
Despite everything, I am still holding on to our connection.
I’m still holding, yeah
Reiterating the commitment to holding on.
I’m still holding on, yeah
Continuing to hold on despite challenges.
I’m still holding
Emphasizing the determination to hold on.
I’m building a wall
I am reinforcing emotional barriers.
So, when you call
If you attempt to reach out again, I will resist.
I’m never gonna let you in
Reiterating the decision to keep you out of my life.
No, I’m never gonna let you in
Stating firmly that I will not allow you back in.
I’m never gonna let you in
Reiterating the decision to keep you out of my life.
