Emotionally Available
Navigating Uncharted Hearts: Emotionally Available by Elizabeth Moen
Lyrics
I am not your old love
I am not the person you used to love
Turn me on and turn off the switch
You can arouse my interest, but you can also reject me
In my head that tells me I am just another itch
I feel like I'm just a temporary distraction in your thoughts
To scratch to pass the time to avoid the dark in your days
You use me to pass the time and avoid facing the difficulties in your life
Turn me down if you do not have the decency to say
If you're not interested, at least be honest and let me know
I am not emotionally available
I am not emotionally ready for a committed relationship
And I am not currently fully capable
I am not currently in a state to fully engage in a new romantic connection
Of new love
I am not open to the idea of falling in love again
Take me out and take all of my energy
If you take me out, you take away the energy I could invest in someone else or myself
That I could give to someone else or just me
You divert my attention, preventing me from giving my energy to others or self-discovery
Instead you create a path for words to dance in a haze
You create a confusing situation where words seem to have a playful, unclear meaning
Well turn me down if you do not have the decency to say
If you're not genuinely interested, be honest and reject me
I am not emotionally available
I am not emotionally prepared or open for a deep, meaningful connection
And I am not currently fully capable
I am not currently capable of fully committing to a new romantic relationship
Of new love
I am not ready for a fresh start in love
Well new love
This repeats the idea that the speaker is not ready for a new romantic involvement
I am not your old love and
Repeated emphasis on not being the past lover, reinforcing the message
I am not your old love and
-I am not your old love and
-I am not your old love
