Damaged Ones
Embracing Imperfections: The Tale of Damaged Souls in Anna Ternheim's Melody
Lyrics
Maybe we are the damaged ones
Perhaps we belong to the group of individuals who carry emotional or psychological scars.
Endless need like a burning sun
An insatiable desire that persists relentlessly, akin to the intensity of a scorching sun.
Burns like you, my damaged one
The burning sensation is likened to the person being addressed, emphasizing shared emotional pain.
On my knees in a faceless crowd
Being in a vulnerable position amidst a crowd of anonymous individuals.
We go blind when the stakes are high
Loss of clarity or perspective when faced with high-stakes situations.
I'm on my knees, can you see me now?
Expressing vulnerability and a plea for recognition or acknowledgment.
Whatever you do don't leave me tonight
An urgent request not to be abandoned or left alone on this particular night.
Maybe we are the damaged ones
A repetition of the idea that the speaker and the addressed share a sense of being emotionally wounded.
Endless need like a burning sun
Continuation of the metaphor of an unending desire, intense like a burning sun.
Burns like you, my damaged one
Reiteration of the burning pain, specifically attributed to the person being referred to as "my damaged one."
You and I in a shameless state
Both individuals are in a state of shamelessness, possibly suggesting a lack of inhibition or societal norms.
I want you so badly you know that it's a pain to wait
The speaker expresses a strong longing for the other person, acknowledging the difficulty of waiting.
What keeps you from moving, are you afraid to be loved?
A question about the reasons preventing the addressed person from reciprocating love, hinting at potential barriers.
See how my hands shake, I was raised on it like a drug
The physical manifestation of anxiety or nervousness, drawing a connection to a habitual exposure to such feelings.
Maybe we are the damaged ones
A repetition, reinforcing the idea that both individuals may carry emotional wounds.
Endless need like a burning sun
Reiteration of the unending and intense nature of the emotional need.
Burns like you, my damaged one
The burning pain is emphasized again, specifically tied to the person addressed as "my damaged one."
It's you or none, my damaged one
The speaker declares a singular choice, indicating a deep connection and commitment to the addressed person despite the challenges.
It's you or none, my damaged one
A repetition of the declaration, emphasizing the exclusivity of the connection.
