Eternal Crush
Eternal Crush: Yearning for Unreachable Love
Lyrics
Dear lover who can't relate
Expressing feelings to a lover who may not understand or relate.
Know I'm just a copy and paste
Acknowledging that the speaker feels like a mere imitation in the relationship.
But take my heart just to break
Offering the heart despite the anticipation of it being broken.
I watch the sun on your face,
Observing the lover's facial expressions in the sunlight.
Think of you early til late
Constantly thinking about the lover from early morning until late at night.
All of your flaws and your traits
Acknowledging and appreciating both the flaws and traits of the lover.
Erase, backspace, your face, I don't want no trace
Expressing the desire to erase any evidence of the lover and move on.
Mistakes, I chase, I face, make it all go away now
Admitting past mistakes and actively trying to eliminate them from the relationship.
I try, my eternal crush
Expressing persistent feelings as an "eternal crush."
My eternal crush, not getting through to you
Frustration at the difficulty of conveying emotions to the lover.
I cry, when I need your touch
Expressing emotional vulnerability and the need for the lover's touch.
Know I need too much
Acknowledging that the speaker might require too much from the relationship.
Know I need you on my side on my side need you
Emphasizing the importance of having the lover on their side.
Know I need to draw a line draw the line It's you
Highlighting the need to establish boundaries by drawing a line in the relationship.
Every day I see some sign and I pray it's a coincidence, an unfortunate incident
Noticing signs every day and hoping they are mere coincidences, but feeling unsure.
But every day you run my mind
Being preoccupied with thoughts of the lover consistently.
And I'm too weak to condition it
Admitting weakness in controlling or conditioning thoughts about the lover.
I want you and I'm thinking it, I wish it weren't this way
Expressing a desire for the lover while lamenting the current situation.
Erase, backspace, your face, I don't want no trace
Reiterating the wish to erase any traces of the lover and start anew.
Mistakes, I chase, I face, make it all go away now
Continuing to confront and eliminate past mistakes for a fresh start.
I try, my eternal crush
Reiterating the persistent nature of the speaker's feelings as an "eternal crush."
My eternal crush, not getting through to you
Expressing frustration at the difficulty of communicating with the lover.
I cry, when I need your touch
Expressing the need for the lover's touch and the emotional impact of the absence.
Know I need too much
Acknowledging that the speaker may be asking for too much from the relationship.
Know I need you on my side on my side need you
Stressing the importance of having the lover by their side.
Know I need to draw a line draw the line It's you
Emphasizing the need to establish clear boundaries in the relationship.
I watch the sun on your face
Repeating the earlier observation of the lover's facial expressions in the sunlight.
Think of you early til late
Reiterating constant thoughts about the lover's flaws and traits.
All of your flaws and your traits oh
Expressing genuine love and the inability to be fake in the relationship.
I love you, I can't be fake
Acknowledging the anticipation of potential risks in the relationship.
I think I know what awaits
Expressing awareness of the risks but choosing to take them for the sake of love.
But that's the risk that I take now
Acknowledging that embracing the risks is a conscious choice made in the present.
