Lyrics
I feel like an insect
I feel insignificant or powerless
The way I’m caught up in your web
My entanglement in your influence is like being caught in a web
Your web again
Repeated emphasis on being ensnared in the person's influence
I feel like an actor
I feel like I'm playing a role or pretending
The way I force myself to pretend
I force myself to act or behave in a certain way
Feels like i'm always on the outside
Feeling like an outsider, not part of the inner circle
Looking in
Constantly observing from a distance
You got me running from my own pride
Running away from one's own pride or ego
Yet again
Repeated feeling of exclusion or being on the outside
Darling I don't wanna live my life alone
Expressing a desire not to live life in solitude
It’s hard to admit but I just gotta tell ya
Acknowledging the difficulty in admitting something
I dont wanna freak you out or push you away
Not wanting to cause discomfort or push someone away
I just wanna breathe, breathe, breathe you in
Expressing a desire to deeply connect or be close
I just wanna breathe, breathe, breathe you in
Repeated emphasis on wanting to be close
I’m feeling romantic
Feeling emotionally connected or sentimental
The way I got you running through my head, my head again
The person occupies thoughts repeatedly
My favorite distraction
Describing the person as a favorite distraction
When you are lying in my bed
The person is a significant part of the speaker's intimate moments
Feels like i'm always on the outside
Reiteration of feeling like an outsider
Looking in
Continued observation from a distance
I'm trying not to get my hopes up
Trying not to get hopes up, possibly to avoid disappointment
Yet again
Repeated sense of exclusion or being on the outside
Darling I don't wanna live my life alone
Expressing a desire not to live life alone
It’s hard to admit but I just gotta tell ya
Acknowledging the difficulty in admitting something
I dont wanna freak you out or push you away
Not wanting to cause discomfort or push someone away
I just wanna breathe, breathe, breathe you in
Expressing a desire to deeply connect or be close
I just wanna breathe, breathe, breathe you in
Repeated emphasis on wanting to be close
So can I breathe, breathe, breathe you in?
Directly asking if the speaker can be intimately connected
