Love Container
Love Container: Embracing Chaos, Finding Tenderness
Lyrics
I've been looking outside for love I've been looking outside for love I've been looking outside
I have been searching for love externally.
But I'm a love
Despite my search, I embody love.
A love container
Describing oneself as a vessel or repository of love.
Dirty room with clothes tossed on the floor
Depicting a messy room with scattered clothes, possibly symbolizing emotional clutter.
Can't take no more of this
Expressing a feeling of being overwhelmed and unable to endure the current situation.
I doubt myself when I am walking through your door Still, I give you a kiss
Despite doubts, offering affection by giving a kiss upon entering.
The junkfood on the floor from yesterday
Referring to leftover junk food as a representation of avoiding certain aspects of life.
Is what we avoid
Choosing to steer clear of undesirable things.
We bathe ourselves in chaos and we turn away
Immersing in chaos and deliberately turning away to fill an emotional void.
So we can fill our void
Exploring the concept of avoiding discomfort to find temporary satisfaction.
But I cannot turn away
Expressing difficulty in turning away from certain situations or feelings.
I've been looking outside for love I've been looking outside for love I've been looking outside
Reiterating the theme of searching for love externally.
But I'm a love
Reaffirming the identity as a container of love.
A love container
Describing oneself as a vessel or repository of love again.
Your MacBook's on the table next to a note That says "play me now"
Noting the presence of a MacBook with a message, creating doubt.
A pre-recorded message of the song you wrote Just to make me doubt
A pre-recorded message introducing a song to evoke uncertainty.
The ukelele rhythm that you always play
Expressing annoyance with a repetitive ukulele rhythm.
Is starting to annoy
Feeling torn between the choice to stay or leave due to conflicting emotions.
I am torn between the choice to leave or stay Cause I still like your voice
Despite the conflict, still appreciating the partner's voice.
Oh, I cannot turn away
Reiterating the challenge of turning away from the situation.
What will remain? If I surrender What will remain? Of our time
Pondering what will endure if surrendering to love and reflecting on the passage of time.
Time
Repeating the theme of time and its impact on the relationship.
I've been looking outside for love (I've been looking outside)
Repeating the desire for external love but acknowledging the inherent love within.
I've been looking outside for love (I've been looking outside)
Reiterating the search for love externally.
I've been looking outside But I'm a love
Reaffirming the identity as a container of love.
A love container
Describing oneself as a vessel or repository of love once more.
You sing to me
Acknowledging the partner's singing.
(Outside, outside)
Repeating the idea of looking outside but learning about tenderness.
That you've learned me how tenderness can be (Outside, outside)
Emphasizing the transformative power of tenderness.
A thing
Describing tenderness as something that opens up a world within.
That opens up a world from deep in me
Reflecting on what remains if one surrenders to love and the passage of life.
What will remain? If I surrender What will remain? Of my life...
Repeating the question about what will endure after surrendering to love.
I've been looking outside for love (I've been looking outside)
Reiterating the search for love externally.
I've been looking outside for love (I've been looking outside)
Repeating the theme of searching for love externally.
I've been looking outside
Reiterating the external search for love.
But I'm a love
Describing oneself as a vessel or repository of love yet again.
A love container
Emphasizing the identity as a container of love.
Outside, outside Love container Outside, outside Love container Outside, outside Love container Outside, outside A love container
Repeating the idea of looking outside but emphasizing the consistent nature of being a love container.
And that will never change...
Asserting that the identity as a love container will never change.
