Kisses for Rent
Embracing Imperfections: Unveiling the Journey in 'Kisses for Rent'
Lyrics
One day I'll admit my mistakes
Expressing a future acknowledgment of personal errors.
One day I'll accept my flaws
Anticipating acceptance of one's own imperfections.
You think you know me well
Challenging the perception that others truly understand the speaker.
You couldn't be more wrong
Disputing the accuracy of someone's understanding of the speaker.
I get, you're ready
Acknowledging readiness or preparation for something.
Make a move but I'm still staying
Despite being ready, choosing to remain in the current situation.
You keep the earth rotating
Acknowledging someone's positive impact on the speaker's life.
But time won't pass me by
Feeling stagnant or resistant to the passage of time.
Red in the face but no one cares
Feeling embarrassed or ashamed, but perceiving indifference from others.
We've been splitting atoms
Using metaphorical language to describe intense and intricate discussions.
Like you're splitting hairs
Drawing a comparison between complex discussions and trivial arguments.
We hold a white flag high
Symbolically surrendering or seeking peace, met with apathy from someone.
But you just stare
Facing unresponsive or indifferent behavior after extending an olive branch.
I'll pick you up to let you down
Expressing a pattern of lifting someone up only to disappoint them later.
These days aren't how they use to be
Reflecting on changes in the present compared to the past.
My bed has to much room for me
Feeling a sense of loneliness or emptiness in a spacious bed.
And this distance is growing
Noticing a growing emotional distance in a relationship.
I'm left with nothing else to speak
Running out of words or expressions due to emotional emptiness.
My appetite won't let me eat
Experiencing a loss of appetite due to emotional turmoil.
And my brain won't let me sleep
Struggling with insomnia caused by persistent thoughts.
Pressure is so suffocating
Describing an overwhelming and constricting sense of pressure.
I feel like giving up
Feeling the temptation to give up under intense pressure.
But I won't stop
Committing to perseverance despite the urge to quit.
I've got milage in my bones
Having experienced challenges and difficulties in life.
I've got yearning in my heart
Feeling a deep desire or longing within oneself.
You got a love I can't let go
Acknowledging a love that is difficult to relinquish.
I want to make this work
Expressing a sincere desire to make a relationship succeed.
These aren't how they use to be
Reflecting on changes in the present compared to the past (repeated theme).
I'm not the man that I was
Admitting personal growth or change from the past.
And this distance keeps growing
Noticing a widening emotional gap in a relationship (repeated theme).
I set my fuck-ups to repeat
Acknowledging a cycle of repeating mistakes and regrets.
So something reminds me
Seeking reminders of the consequences or importance of a situation.
What's at stake
Acknowledging the stakes or significance of the current circumstances.
