What You See
Unveiling Vulnerability: The Hidden Depths of Self-Expression
Lyrics
Do you mind if I sing to you
Asking for permission to sing to someone.
I was told it's the best thing to do
Referring to advice received that singing is a good way to connect.
To keep me running through your mind
Expressing the desire to linger in the person's thoughts.
Wasting all your time wondering
Speculating about the person wondering about the singer.
Where I am
Questioning the person's thoughts about the singer's whereabouts.
Do you mind if I place your name
Seeking permission to incorporate the person's name into unsaid words.
In between words that I can't quite say
Describing a poetic attempt to express feelings.
Spin romantic rhymes
Creating romantic verses that may reveal emotions.
You'll start seeing signs
Suggesting that signs will indicate a connection to the singer.
That point straight to me
Imagining signs leading directly to the singer.
But I'll probably just play it
Considering playing music without vocalizing emotions.
Without the words
Choosing not to express feelings verbally.
Stay the best song singer that you've never heard
Intending to remain a hidden talent, unknown to the listener.
Probably just sing some song you already know
Predicting singing familiar songs to avoid vulnerability.
I won't show the best side of me
Not revealing the best aspects of oneself.
In case you don't like what you see
Protecting against potential disapproval by withholding true self.
And with every single line
Anticipating the listener falling for the singer's poetic words.
You'll fall into these wild words of mine
Imagining a deep and passionate connection through words.
We'll fall madly in love
Visualizing a strong romantic bond developing.
Leave the others in the dust
Leaving other potential romantic interests behind.
And just run away somewhere
Fantasizing about escaping together to a distant place.
But I'll probably just play it
Considering playing music without vocalizing emotions (repeated).
Without the words
Choosing not to express feelings verbally (repeated).
Stay the best song singer that you've never heard
Intending to remain a hidden talent, unknown to the listener (repeated).
Probably just sing some song you already know
Predicting singing familiar songs to avoid vulnerability (repeated).
I won't show the best side of me
Not revealing the best aspects of oneself (repeated).
In case you don't like what you see
Protecting against potential disapproval by withholding true self (repeated).
Maybe the next time
Contemplating a potential future time for emotional expression.
Or the one after that
Considering the possibility of delaying emotional expression.
I will
Expressing a commitment to open up emotionally in the future.
But I'll probably just play it
Considering playing music without vocalizing emotions (repeated).
Without the words
Choosing not to express feelings verbally (repeated).
Stay the best song singer that you've never heard
Intending to remain a hidden talent, unknown to the listener (repeated).
Probably just sing some song you already know
Predicting singing familiar songs to avoid vulnerability (repeated).
I won't show the best side of me
Not revealing the best aspects of oneself (repeated).
In case you don't like what you see
Protecting against potential disapproval by withholding true self (repeated).
