Get Me
Craving Connection: Everything but the Girl's Yearning for Love
Lyrics
I never thought I´d grow up so fast so far.
I never thought I'd grow up so fast and go so far.
To know yourself is to let yourself be loved.
To understand oneself is to allow oneself to be loved.
And I want to be addicted,
Expressing a desire to be addicted.
I want to be secure,
Expressing a desire for security.
I want to wake up after the night before,
Expressing a desire to wake up after a night of indulgence.
but do you ever get me?
Pondering whether the listener truly understands the speaker.
Do you ever get me?
Reiterating the question of whether the listener truly understands.
I'll press your hand against my face,
Symbolic gesture of intimacy, seeking vulnerability.
weaken my resistance.
Willingness to let down defenses and be influenced.
I'll pull the sheets over our heads,
Seeking closeness and intimacy by pulling the sheets over their heads.
let the broken sky break above our heads.
Metaphorical embrace despite challenges represented by the broken sky.
And I want to be addicted,
Reiteration of the desire to be addicted.
I want to be secure,
Reiteration of the desire for security.
I want to wake up after the night before,
Reiteration of the desire to wake up after indulgence.
but do you get me?
Pose the question again: Does the listener truly understand?
Do you ever get me?
Repeating the inquiry about understanding.
Shower me with affection and I'll return in kind.
If showered with affection, the speaker will reciprocate.
I have no hidden motive, I am blind.
Claiming transparency, asserting honesty without hidden motives.
I'm a stone inside a box,
Metaphorically describing oneself as a stone inside a box, possibly conveying a sense of confinement or emotional detachment.
I'm a spring inside a clock,
Using the metaphor of a spring inside a clock, suggesting an internal mechanism that drives actions.
you can wear me on your wrist
Metaphor of being wearable, possibly representing accessibility to others.
and I'll tell you things ten thousand times,
Expressing willingness to communicate repeatedly, emphasizing the depth of sharing.
but do you ever get me?
Pose the question again: Does the listener truly understand?
Do you ever get me?
Repeating the inquiry about understanding.
