Lyrics

I will try to keep you close to me until I drop the ball

I will try to maintain our closeness until I make a mistake or fail.

But my hands are tied, my eyes are closed and my back's against the wall

I feel restricted and challenged, with little visibility or options.

What it tastes like. What it feels like

Expressing uncertainty about the essence and experience of something.

I can't really find my way

I'm having difficulty finding my path or direction.

I just seem to disappoint you

I consistently seem to let you down or not meet your expectations.

And it leads me astray

My actions lead me away from the right path or relationship.

We're not the same

Highlighting a fundamental difference between two entities or individuals.

And I'm not the same as you

Emphasizing personal uniqueness and dissimilarity.

When I pull away, you hold me tight

Even when I try to distance myself, you insist on holding onto me.

It seems as I am stuck

Feeling stuck or unable to make progress.

But when the morning comes and you are gone, I'm running out of luck

When morning comes and you're not around, my luck runs out.

What it tastes like. What it feels like

Reiteration of uncertainty about the essence and experience of something.

I can't really find my way

Continued difficulty in finding the right path or direction.

I just seem to disappoint you

Consistently falling short of your expectations or disappointing you.

And it leads me astray

My actions lead me astray or away from the right course.

We're not the same

Reiteration of the fundamental difference between two entities or individuals.

And I'm not the same as you

Re-emphasizing personal uniqueness and dissimilarity.

What it tastes like, what it feels like

Expressing continued uncertainty about the essence and experience of something.

I can't really find my way

Continued difficulty in finding the right path or direction.

We're not the same

Highlighting the persistent dissimilarity between two entities or individuals.

We're not the same at all

Underlining the significant difference existing between "us."
