Lyrics
Can words from a song
Questioning the credibility of words in a song as evidence of wrongdoing
Hold up as proof of crime
Expressing doubt about the song's ability to serve as proof in a legal context
Coz I don't wanna testify
Reluctance to testify and share personal feelings
It hurts when I'm wrong
Acknowledging the pain when admitting a mistake
But saying that I'm full of flaws
Accepting personal flaws but doubting their relevance in a court
Won't hold up in a court of law
Emphasizing that personal imperfections are not legally significant
I won't say that I love you
Denying love and disassociating the song from a specific person
This song is not about you
Reiterating that the song is not addressing a particular individual
A call on the phone
Mentioning a phone call, possibly alluding to communication challenges
Your breath when you're asleep
Noting intimate moments, like the partner's breath during sleep
The way you smile and look at me
Describing positive gestures and expressions in the relationship
I'll fall, and I've known
Anticipating a fall in love and acknowledging its inevitability
But if loving is a crime
Considering love as a potential "crime" with consequences
You'll find I've found a way to do my time
Finding a way to endure the consequences of love
I won't say that I love you
Repeating the refrain that the song does not express love for a specific person
This song is not about you
Reiterating that the song is not directed towards a particular individual
This game is meant for two
Noting that the game of love is typically a shared experience
This song is not about you
Emphasizing once again that the song is not focused on a specific person
So I won't sing of how it makes me feel
Avoiding expressing emotions related to the partner in the song
When my t shirt smells of your laundry
Mentioning a personal item (t-shirt) linked to the partner but not delving into emotions
Just stay a while
Encouraging the partner to stay in the relationship
Now I could tell you that it's fiction
Acknowledging that the story in the song could be fictional
But you know of my conviction
Asserting a strong belief or commitment despite the fictional nature
I won't lie
Declaring honesty despite potential discomfort
Does it hurt?
Possibly addressing emotional pain or asking if the truth hurts
Coz saying that I'm full of flaws
Echoing the acknowledgment of personal flaws and their legal insignificance
Won't hold up in a court of law
Reiterating that personal flaws are not relevant in a legal context
I won't say that I love you
Stating again that the song does not express love for a specific person
This song is not about you
Emphasizing that the song is not about a particular individual
This game is meant for two
Repeating that love is typically a shared experience
This song is not about you
Restating that the song is not addressing a specific person
I won't say that I love you
Affirming that the expression of love is not the focus of the song
This song is not about you
Reiterating that the song is not directed towards any specific individual
I look past the people
Looking beyond superficial similarities when choosing a partner
Who match with me on paper
Rejecting matches based on paper compatibility
And I go and fall for someone
Falling for someone involved with another person
Who's in love with someone else
Expressing the complexity of emotions when falling for an unavailable person
This dose seems a bit lethal
Acknowledging the potentially harmful impact of emotions
So just do me a favour
Requesting a favor, possibly asking for understanding or forgiveness
And remember I've come undone
Acknowledging personal unraveling or emotional distress
Through the fault of my own self
Taking responsibility for personal faults and their consequences
