Hard To Hold
Love's Paradox: Embracing the Unpredictable Dance
Lyrics
You wanna be lovers
You desire a romantic relationship
Then you wanna be friends
Then you prefer a platonic connection
You want me to spill out my heart just so that you can break it again
You ask for my emotional vulnerability, knowing it may result in heartbreak
You wanna be more
You aspire for something more significant
Then you wanna be nothing
Then you desire nothing at all
You just keep playing the same old game I never win
You consistently engage in a cycle where I end up losing
Now I can hardly stand the feeling
I'm finding it challenging to cope with this situation
When everyone keeps telling me
Others advise me about your unyielding nature
You're like a wall of stone
Comparing you to an impenetrable barrier
Not what I expected
Your behavior doesn't align with my expectations
I can't get too close
I refrain from getting too close because it might lead to the end of our connection
Cause touching you might end it
Contact with you could potentially terminate our relationship
When you're here I'm frozen
Your presence renders me immobile
I'm scared and I can't help it
I'm frightened, and it's beyond my control
Then I get so cold
Subsequently, I become emotionally distant
But maybe it's just you that's making me hard to hold
Perhaps it's your influence causing me to be difficult to maintain or grasp
But maybe it's just you that's making me hard to hold
Repeated line, emphasizing the idea that the other person's actions affect the difficulty in holding onto the relationship
No, no
An emphatic denial or rejection
I wanted forever
I desired a lasting commitment
But you had no time
But you didn't prioritize the time for it
So sorry is what you'll be feeling for wasting all mine
You'll feel regret for wasting my time and commitment
I wanted an answer
I sought clarity or resolution
But you gave me ten
But you provided confusing or contradictory responses
I'm such a sucker for all of the things I don't get
I am drawn to things that I cannot comprehend or attain
Mmm
Expressing contemplation or reflection
Now I can hardly recognize
I'm finding it difficult to relate to my own words and actions
The things I hear myself saying
There's a discrepancy between my expectations and my expressions
You're like a wall of stone
Reiterating your comparison to an impenetrable barrier
Not what I expected
Similar sentiment as line 10
I can't get too close
Avoiding closeness due to fear of consequences
Cause touching you might end it
Fear of physical contact leading to the end of the relationship
When you're here I'm frozen
Feeling paralyzed in your presence
I'm scared and I can't help it
Experiencing fear beyond control
Then I get so cold
Resulting emotional detachment
But maybe it's just you that's making me hard to hold
Suggesting that the difficulty in being held or contained may be attributed to the influence of the person
But maybe it's just you that's making me hard to hold
Repetition of the idea that the other person's impact makes maintaining the relationship challenging
But maybe it's just you that's making me hard to hold
Reiteration that the influence of the other person causes difficulty in being contained or maintained
