Lyrics
It's only getting harder
Expressing the increasing difficulty of the situation.
Talking to you without falling down
Struggling to communicate without conflict or emotional breakdown.
And this house keeps getting darker
Describing a darkening atmosphere in the house, possibly reflecting a strained relationship.
We used to love, now all we do is shout
Contrasting past love with current conflicts and arguments.
If we're cutting any corners
Suggesting the possibility of taking shortcuts or avoiding issues.
There's still a chance to make it right
Highlighting the chance to correct the situation and make things right.
So let's put our heads together
Encouraging collaboration to address the challenges.
Before we lose our mind
Emphasizing the urgency of addressing the issues before losing emotional stability.
Have I been holding on too strong?
Questioning whether the speaker has been too forceful or persistent.
Maybe I'm coming off all wrong
Considering the possibility of conveying a wrong impression or message.
Is it our heavy handed love
Suggesting a love that may be overpowering or dominating.
Keeping us from moving on?
Wondering if this intense love is hindering progress and growth.
Feels like I'm treading the water
Feeling like the speaker is barely staying afloat in a challenging situation.
Trying to keep my head above the line
Noticing a decrease in the intensity of the partner's presence.
I hear the sound of you get softer
Observing a diminishing emotional impact from the partner.
Lately you've been just so hard to find
Expressing difficulty in connecting with the partner recently.
And there's nothing I want more now
Desiring to find the perfect words to improve the situation.
Than to say the perfect words
Expressing the desire to say something that will positively impact the relationship.
I try to make it better
Attempting to improve the situation but realizing it may cause more harm than good.
But the trying only hurts
Acknowledging that efforts to make things better are causing pain.
Have I been holding on too strong?
Repeating the question of whether the speaker is holding on too strongly.
Maybe I came across all wrong
Reiterating the concern about giving the wrong impression.
Is it our heavy handed love
Questioning if the intense love is preventing them from moving forward.
Keeping us from moving on?
Wondering if the overpowering love is an obstacle to progress.
I'm not ready to go tonight
Expressing a reluctance or unpreparedness to end the situation or relationship.
I'm not ready to go tonight
-I'm not ready to go tonight
-Have I been holding on too strong?
Repeating the question of whether the speaker is holding on too strongly.
Maybe I'm coming off all wrong
Reiterating the concern about giving the wrong impression.
Is it our heavy handed love
Questioning if the intense love is preventing them from moving forward.
Keeping us from moving on?
Wondering if the overpowering love is an obstacle to progress.
