On Hold
Love's Crossroads: Jack Rourke's On Hold Unveils Complex Emotions
Lyrics
We see from different sides
We have different perspectives on the situation
I tried to show you mine
I attempted to reveal my perspective to you
You didn't like what you found
You didn't like what you discovered about me
I need to live some life
I need to experience life
Clean up the mess inside
Clean up the emotional turmoil within me
And make some room to sit down
Create space to reflect and discuss
Doesn't mean I don't love you now
Loving you now doesn't mean I'm not facing difficulties
No I'm not walkin away, away, away
I'm not leaving, but it's challenging
But god it's making it so hard now
Expressing the difficulty of the situation
That I'm not walking away, away, away
I'm not walking away despite the challenges
Ohhh, I don't wanna keep you here on hold
Don't want to keep you waiting without a resolution
I know it's not fair to you at all
Acknowledging the unfairness to the partner
Future me would never let you go
Future me wouldn't want to lose you
But I don't want to keep you here on hold
But hesitant to keep you waiting
Inside my crystal ball
Using a crystal ball metaphor for insight
I see you're gonna fall
Predicting a future romantic involvement
In love with someone mature
With someone mature and responsible
They'll have their shit together
Emphasizing stability in any situation
Be stable any weather
Similarities between the future partner and the singer
They'll be like me in reverse
Reversed roles in maturity
Doesn't mean I don't love you now
Loving you despite the challenges
No I'm not walking away, away, away
Not leaving despite difficulties
But god it's making it so hard now
Expressing the difficulty of the situation
That I'm not walking away, away, away
I'm not walking away despite the challenges
Ohhh, I don't wanna keep you here on hold
Not wanting to keep the partner in uncertainty
I know it's not fair to you at all
Acknowledging the unfairness to the partner
Future me would never let you go
Future self wouldn't want to lose the partner
But I don't want to keep you here on hold
Hesitant to keep the partner waiting
Ohhh, I don't want to keep you here on hold
Not wanting to keep the partner waiting
I know it's not fair to you at all
Acknowledging the unfairness to the partner
Future me would never let you go
Future self wouldn't want to lose the partner
But I don't want to keep you here on hold
Hesitant to keep the partner waiting
Maybe you should
Suggesting the partner should consider leaving
Maybe you should
Reiterating the suggestion to leave
Maybe you should go
Directly advising the partner to go
Maybe you should
Suggesting again that the partner should leave
Maybe you should
Reiterating the suggestion to leave
Maybe you should go
Suggesting once more that the partner should go
Maybe I'll just
Contemplating the possibility of leaving
Maybe I'll just
Reiterating the contemplation of leaving
Maybe I'll just go
