Warn
Love's Warning Whispers: Kevin Garrett's Haunting Reflections
Lyrics
It’s been too long
Expressing that it has been a prolonged period.
To keep hanging on now
Acknowledging the need to let go of something.
And oh all the times I’ve tried to run
Reflecting on attempts to escape or avoid a situation.
But I can’t ignore it, how I stay
Recognizing an inability to ignore a certain aspect of the situation.
And it’s a shame the way I want you
Expressing a desire for someone despite challenges.
And people are talking now
Acknowledging external discussions or rumors about the speaker.
You hear me talking?
Asking if the listener hears and understands the speaker.
It’s just words til I say them
Highlighting the power of spoken words and their impact.
But you don’t love me at all
Asserting that the listener does not genuinely love the speaker.
(It’s just words til I say them)
Reiterating the influence of words and their weight.
What happens if I won’t be around when you will?
Raising a question about the consequences if the speaker is not present in the future.
Tell me if you hadn’t known this long
Asking if the listener was aware of something for a significant duration.
Tell me would it be the same?
Questioning whether things would remain unchanged if the listener had known earlier.
Cos I can’t get my head around this thought
Expressing difficulty in comprehending a particular idea or situation.
That you would leave me anyway
Fearing the possibility of being abandoned despite efforts.
Tell me if I never try to change
Inquiring about the potential for positive change if the speaker attempts it.
Are we gonna be okay?
Questioning the stability of the relationship.
Cos we ain’t ever stay in the same place
Stating that the relationship is not static.
I couldn’t love you every day
Expressing an inability to love consistently every day.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you
Warning the listener about potential consequences.
Do you hate how I linger?
Asking if the listener dislikes the lingering presence of the speaker.
The way you did in the end?
Referencing a past experience of lingering and its impact.
And say it doesn’t hurt instead
Contradicting verbal reassurance, implying that it does hurt.
Cos I still don’t believe us, what you said
Doubting the sincerity of past statements made by the listener.
The closer I get it’s all in your head
Noting that thoughts and perceptions intensify as closeness increases.
I’m all in your head
Emphasizing the speaker's presence in the listener's thoughts.
I’m under your skin
Indicating a deep connection, suggesting influence beneath the surface.
You loosen your lips
Describing a moment of vulnerability or disclosure.
There’s love on the tip of your tongue
Highlighting the presence of love in spoken words.
Did we ever want it all?
Raising a question about the shared aspirations of the relationship.
What happens if you won’t be around when I call?
Pondering the outcome if the listener is not available when needed.
Tell me if you hadn’t known this long
Repeating the inquiry about awareness over an extended period.
Tell me would it be the same?
Repeating the question about the impact of prior knowledge.
Cos I can’t get my head around this thought
Reiterating the difficulty in understanding a certain aspect.
That you would leave me anyway
Reiterating the fear of being left despite efforts to change.
Tell me if I never try to change
Repeating the inquiry about the possibility of positive change.
Are we gonna be okay?
Repeating the question about the stability of the relationship.
Cos we ain’t ever stay in the same place
Reiterating the dynamic nature of the relationship.
I couldn’t love you every day
Reiterating the challenge of consistent daily love.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you
Repeating the warning about potential consequences.
