I know better
Embracing Shadows: Lily Bauer's Struggle with Solitude and Desire
Lyrics
I know better but I've been running from myself
Admitting self-awareness of making poor choices, running away from one's true self.
I can't fight this feeling anymore
Expressing the inability to resist a certain emotion or desire any longer.
So I invite you over although I'm tired and I'm cold
Choosing to engage with someone despite feeling exhausted and cold.
I just wanna feel some close to me
Yearning for emotional closeness, seeking comfort from another person.
But I don't know your hands
Expressing unfamiliarity with the other person's touch.
I don't know how they feel on my skin
Uncertainty about how the other person's hands would feel on the speaker's skin.
And I don't know your face in the morning light
Lack of knowledge about the other person's appearance in the morning light.
But I know that I don't wanna be alone
Acknowledging a desire to avoid being alone.
But I know that I don't wanna be alone
Reiteration of the reluctance to be alone.
I know better but I keep coming back for more
Acknowledging awareness of making better choices but continuing to repeat mistakes.
I can not resist you anymore
Expressing inability to resist the allure of the other person.
You're coming over you're tall and I
Describing the other person's physical presence and stature.
Rest my head on your chest
Seeking comfort by resting the head on the other person's chest.
I just wanna feel someone close to me
Reiterating the desire for emotional closeness and physical connection.
But I don't know your hands
Expressing uncertainty about the nature of the other person's touch.
I don't know how they feel on my skin
Uncertainty about how the other person's hands would feel on the speaker's skin.
And I don't know your face in the morning light
Lack of knowledge about the other person's appearance in the morning light.
But I know that I don't wanna be alone
Reiterating the desire to avoid being alone.
But I know that I don't wanna be alone
Reiteration of the reluctance to be alone.
