I'm Different When I'm With You
Love's Wings Clipped: Navigating Emotional Turbulence
Lyrics
Had the mattress on the floor, couldn‘t sleep still
Feeling restless with a mattress on the floor, unable to sleep.
You‘d show right up at my door when it‘s needed
Someone reliable shows up at the door when needed.
You look better than your phone could‘ve pictured
Physical appearance surpasses expectations from pictures.
Girl, your smile is of a goddess
Complimenting the person's captivating smile.
It can’t be helped but I’m feeling blue
Feeling down or sad despite the positive aspects.
Nothing‘s something if it ain’t with you
Things are only meaningful when shared with the person.
I’d clip my wings for you to fly away
Expressing willingness to sacrifice personal freedom for the other.
When your mind is caged, I’m your sweet escape
Offering emotional support when the partner is feeling trapped.
But you gon‘ feel when I opt out
Hinting at a potential decision to step back from the relationship.
When I opt out
Reiteration of the decision to step back.
Feel uneasy now?
Asking if the partner feels uneasy about the impending change.
Said you gon’ feel when I opt out
Reiterating the emotional impact of opting out.
Uh, when I opt out
Repeating the decision to opt out.
Say you don‘t need me now
Stating that the partner claims not to need the speaker anymore.
I‘m severing all our ties
Deciding to sever all emotional connections.
Things won’t be undone
Acknowledging that certain actions cannot be undone.
Undone, un-uh
Repeating the idea that some things are irreversible.
I notice when you lie
Observing when the partner is being untruthful.
I’ll never be the one
Accepting that the speaker won't be the chosen one.
Why you set me up?
Questioning why the speaker was set up for disappointment.
I‘m down on my luck
Expressing a sense of misfortune.
Why you push me back?
Questioning why the partner is pushing the speaker away.
Hate to feel like that
Disliking the feeling of being rejected.
Why don‘t you trust your feelings
Encouraging the partner to trust their emotions.
All we got‘s a minute
Highlighting the limited time available.
Don‘t hold back, I‘m with it
Encouraging openness and expressing willingness to participate.
I’m on call for you
Being available and ready to respond to the partner.
Why you set me up?
Repeating the question about being set up for disappointment.
I‘m down on my luck
Reiterating a sense of misfortune.
Why you push me back?
Repeating the question about being pushed away.
Hate to feel like that
Expressing dislike for the feeling of rejection.
Why don‘t you trust your feelings
Encouraging the partner to trust their emotions again.
All we got‘s a minute
Highlighting the limited time available (repeated).
Don‘t hold back, I‘m with it -
Reiterating the willingness to participate and not hold back.
But you gon‘ feel when I opt out
