Yearning for Connection: Black Roses' Emotional Turmoil
Lyrics
We like to drown
We have a tendency to immerse ourselves.
Just for someone to come and get us out
We hope for someone to rescue us from our submerged state.
Well, darling, I am starting to love you
Expressing a growing affection for someone.
We like to mess
We enjoy creating chaos.
Oh, everything on our way
Indiscriminately disrupting everything in our path.
We like to mess around
We take pleasure in engaging in random activities.
Well I feel like I keep taking and taking but never give back
Feeling a sense of constantly taking from others without reciprocating.
And when you're looking oh, looking at me
When someone looks at us for an extended period, we instinctively look away.
For too long, I got to look away
Unable to sustain prolonged eye contact.
And I keep faking oh, faking a smile
Putting on a false smile repeatedly.
Just once, or twice, from time to time
Occasionally pretending to be happy, but only briefly.
And I don't want anything, but I keep waiting for a sign
Despite not desiring anything, anticipating a meaningful signal or indication.
Oh I feel alone
Experiencing a sense of loneliness.
But oh, too damn crowded inside
Feeling internally crowded despite external solitude.
Please take me home
Expressing a desire to be taken home.
Oh take me back, please take me back
Pleading to be taken back home.
'Cause I feel like I keep taking and taking but never give back
Continuing the theme of feeling like a constant taker without giving back.
And when you're looking oh, looking at me
Experiencing discomfort when someone stares at us for too long.
For too long, I got to look away
Needing to avert our gaze after prolonged eye contact.
And I keep faking oh, faking a smile
Continuing to fake smiles occasionally.
Just once, or twice, from time to time
Admitting to faking happiness from time to time.
And I don't want anything, but I keep waiting for a sign
Despite not desiring anything, anticipating a meaningful signal or indication.
