Lyrics

It's not the words I want to tell you

Expressing that words are not sufficient to convey a message.

It's not the tension that I feel

Highlighting an underlying tension or unease.

It's not the face that I'm showing you today

Referencing a facade or external appearance being presented.

That betrays the way, the way I want to feel

Suggesting the external appearance doesn't reflect true emotions.


What I need, what I need, what I need right now

Expressing a current need for something important.

Is right here, right in front of me

-

What I need, what I need, what I need right now

-

Is right here, right in front of me

-

A million times, a million thoughts

Feeling lost and uncertain until encountering a significant person.

And I really don't know what I want

-

But then I see you, now I'm almost lost

-

And everything that I know went wrong

-

And if it means that it's done and I'm a fool

Contemplating the idea of forgetting the past for a better future.

But I want to forget what we've been through

-

Just to save us both from what we knew

-

Losing our way, sometimes, it's cruel

-

No distraction, no distraction

Desiring undivided attention without distractions.

Can I, can I be with you?

-

No distraction, no distraction

-

Can I, can I be with you?

-

They pull you to the left, they pull you the right

Describing external forces pulling in various directions.

Pull you in all directions

-

They pull you to the left, pull you the right

-

Pull you in all directions

-

It's not the objects that I hold in my possession

Emphasizing the insignificance of material possessions.

It's not the worldly things that shine

-

Sometimes the worst will come and bring us back together

-

Well, hold me up and get me through the night

-

What I need, what I need, what I need right now

Expressing a current need for someone specific.

Is all right, right in front of me

-

What I need, what I need, what I need right now

-

Is you, you, only you and me

-

A million times, a million thoughts

Reiterating the feeling of being lost and things going wrong.

And I really don't know what I want

-

But then I see you, now I'm almost lost

-

In everything that I know went wrong

-

And if it means that it's done and I'm a fool

Considering the cost of holding onto the past.

But I want to forget what we've been through

-

Just to save us both from what we knew

-

Losing our way, sometimes it's cruel

-

No distraction, no distraction

Repeating the desire for focus and connection without distractions.

Can I, can I be with you?

-

No distraction, no distraction

-

Can I, can I be with you?

-

They pull you to the left, they pull you the right

Reinforcing the idea of external forces causing turmoil.

Pull you in all directions

-

They pull you to the left, pull you the right

-

Pull you in all directions

-

I'm losing time, I'm losing time

Expressing a sense of urgency and questioning the current status.

There's so many ways to live or love or die (I'm losing time)

-

I'm losing time, I'm losing time

-

I've wanted to know, are you still on the line? (on the line)

-

Wasted time trying to prove things

Reflecting on wasting time proving things instead of expressing love.

Instead of proving my love

-

I'm losing, I'm losing my mind

-

Oh, oh, oh, a million times, a million thoughts

Revisiting the theme of feeling lost but with uncertainty about desires.

And now I really don't know what I want

-

But then I see you, I'm almost lost

-

In everything that I know went wrong

-

If it means that it's done and I'm a fool

Weighing the consequences of holding onto the past.

Don't want to forget what we've been through

-

Just to save us both from what we knew

-

Losing our way, sometimes it's cruel

-

No distraction, no distraction

Reiterating the desire for focused connection without distractions.

Can I, can I be with you?

-

No distraction, no distraction

-

Can I, can I be with you?

-

They pull you to the left, they pull you the right

Emphasizing external forces causing confusion and chaos.

They push you in all directions

-

They pull you to the left, pull you the right

-

They push you in all directions
