Sick Love
Sick Love's Unseen Depths: A Tale of Tangled Emotions
Lyrics
I could smell it on your hair
I sense a lingering scent on your hair
The trash fire that was the last time that we talked
Recalling a past argument or disagreement
Now it's awkward silence, dead air
Now there's an uncomfortable silence and lack of communication
And you're thinkin bout sneakin' out the window
You're contemplating escaping unnoticed through the window
Just take me with you when you go
Requesting to be taken along during your departure
I promise you won't even notice I'm there
Assuring that presence will be discreet and unobtrusive
And we'll pretend it's storybook
Imagining a relationship as if it were a fairy tale
But we both know it never was a fairytale
Acknowledging that the relationship was never ideal like a fairy tale
Maybe we're star-crossed
Considering the possibility that their destinies are intertwined
Maybe we're tangled
Suggesting complications or conflicts in the relationship
I think it's sick love
Describing the love as unhealthy or twisted
And maybe it's heavy
Acknowledging the weight or burden in the relationship
And maybe it's pointless
Suggesting the potential meaninglessness of the relationship
I think it's sick love
Reiterating the description of love as sick or unhealthy
And I think that's sick love
Emphasizing the perception of the love as sick
I could taste it on your lips
Recalling the taste of a kiss associated with parting ways
A salty kiss the flavor of a goodbye
Describing the kiss as having the flavor of farewell
Now I'm just paintin' flowers
Engaging in symbolic actions, hoping for a change of heart
Hopin' that the different colors change your mind
Using the metaphor of painting flowers to express optimism
We don't always see eye to eye
Acknowledging differences in perspectives
But I hope I open yours because you open mine
Expressing hope for mutual understanding
That ours is a different kind
Claiming that their relationship is unique and unconventional
It's real and it's dark and it's ugly sometimes
Describing the relationship as genuine, dark, and occasionally unpleasant
So maybe we're star-crossed
Repeating the idea of intertwined destinies
Maybe we're tangled
Reiterating the complications or entanglements in the relationship
I think it's sick love
Emphasizing the perception of love as sick or unhealthy
And maybe it's heavy
Acknowledging the weight or burden in the relationship
And maybe it's pointless
Suggesting the potential meaninglessness of the relationship
I think it's sick love
Reiterating the description of love as sick or unhealthy
And I think that's sick love
Emphasizing the perception of the love as sick
