Worship
Love's Complex Dance: Unveiling Emotions in 'Worship' by Great Big Cow
Lyrics
I say it like I mean it but I really don't
The speaker says things sincerely but doesn't truly mean them.
I wanna tell somebody who ought to be told
The speaker desires to confide in someone who deserves to hear the truth.
I want her to know that I love him so
The speaker wants a person (referred to as 'her') to understand their love for another person (referred to as 'him').
I want her to know that I love him so
-Your honey tastes so sour
Metaphorical description of a situation where something sweet turns sour, leaving a lingering unpleasant taste or experience.
Leaves my mouth burned for two hours
-You worship and I cower
Comparison between the way 'you' worship and how the speaker reacts with fear ('I cower'), expressing submission to a different force or belief.
I kneel to a different power
-I want him to know that I love her so
The speaker wants a person (referred to as 'him') to understand their love for another person (referred to as 'her').
I want him to know that I love her so
-Your honey tastes so sour
Repeated metaphorical description of something sweet turning sour, causing discomfort for an extended period.
Leaves my mouth burned for two hours
-You worship you cower
Contrasting 'you worship, you cower' with the speaker kneeling to a different, likely non-conventional power or belief.
I kneel down to a different power
-I want him to know that I love her so
The speaker wants a person (referred to as 'him') to understand their love for another person (referred to as 'her').
I want her to know that I love him so
