Love's Gamble: Jonathan Chua's Play Along Unraveled
Lyrics
Keep your hands high
Encouragement to keep positive and resilient.
Reach up to the sky
Aspire for higher goals and possibilities.
Forget that you're with that other guy
Suggesting a desire to forget about a romantic involvement with someone else.
Cause you tell me you're still in love
Confirmation that the person is still in love.
I hate that can you just be straight up
Expressing frustration with a lack of honesty and straightforwardness.
You keep my hands tied
Feeling constrained or limited in the relationship.
Cause I can't say goodbye
Difficulty in ending the relationship.
And you know
Recognition of the emotional attachment.
That I can't let you go
Unable to let go due to emotional ties.
No no no no
Reiterating the difficulty in moving on.
I'll give in
Resignation to the impending heartbreak.
Heartbreak here we go
Anticipation of heartbreak as an inevitable consequence.
Ok I'll play along
Agreement to go along with the situation.
But I know you know it's wrong
Acknowledgment that the situation is morally incorrect.
It's worth the risk I'll take the hit
Willing to take risks for the perceived reward.
Throw out my phone can't live like this
Considering extreme actions to cope with the emotional turmoil.
Cause when I say your name
Noticed avoidance when mentioning the person's name.
You always look away
Suspecting manipulative behavior or control over the situation.
Is this some kind of power trip
Questioning if there's a deliberate attempt to assert control.
Your fish is hooked now reel me in
Using a metaphor of fishing, feeling captivated and wanting to be pursued.
I concede
Admitting defeat or acceptance that the person is not the right match.
You're not the one for me
Acknowledging a reluctance to witness the person's departure.
But I couldn't bear to see you leave
Expressing disbelief or difficulty accepting the situation.
Oh I just can't believe
Doubting the authenticity of the presented situation.
This wasn't what it seemed
Realizing that the situation is not as initially perceived.
Ok I'll play along
Reiteration of agreeing to go along with the circumstances.
But I know you know it's wrong
Acknowledgment that the situation is ethically questionable.
It's worth the risk I'll take the hit
Willingness to endure negative consequences for potential gains.
Throw out my phone can't live like this
Considering drastic measures to cope with emotional distress.
Cause when I say your name
Observing avoidance when mentioning the person's name.
You always look away
Reinforcing the suspicion of manipulative behavior.
Is this some kind of power trip
Questioning if there's a deliberate attempt to exert control.
Your fish is hooked now reel me in
Reiterating the feeling of being captivated and desiring pursuit.
