Better in a Song
Musical Confessions: Better in a Song by Joseph Elias Reveals Unspoken Truths
Lyrics
A little bit touchy
Feeling slightly sensitive or easily affected
For a conversation
Uncomfortable or sensitive for discussion
But a little too much to ignore
Too significant to disregard or overlook
It's a feeling that can't escape my
An emotion that dominates my focus
Concentration
Requires my full attention
So I'll say it where you can't keep score
Expressing it where there's no judgment or keeping count
It's just a song girl don't take it too personal
Stating it's merely a song to avoid personal attachment
That's my excuse
Offering a reason or explanation for the song
When she finds out that I wrote it about her
Anticipating her discovery that the song is about her
In reality I wish I never met you
Expressing regret for the encounter
But some things sound better in a song than a conversation
Belief that expressing certain emotions is better through a song than conversation
A little bit immature
Admitting to being somewhat childish or not fully mature
I don't deny it
Acknowledging immaturity without denying it
I say it where you can't say nothing back
Sharing thoughts where no direct response is expected
But I figure you're bound to hear it
Assuming she'll eventually hear these thoughts
Sooner or later
Expecting eventual exposure, hence taking precautions
So I figure I might as well cover my tracks
Protecting oneself by being proactive
It's just a song girl don't take it too personal
Reiterating it's just a song to maintain distance
That's my excuse
Repeating the excuse for emotional detachment
When she finds out that I wrote it about her
Anticipating revelation of the song's true inspiration
In reality I wish I never met you
Expressing a wish that the meeting never occurred
But some things sound better in a song than a conversation
Belief that certain sentiments are more effectively conveyed in a song than in conversation
