Only Exception
Unveiling Hidden Desires: Lucas Stonehouse's Only Exception
Lyrics
When you walk alone
Reflecting on moments of solitude
Do you think of me?
Wondering if the listener is in their thoughts
All this time
Avoiding acknowledging the emotional connection
Avoiding our chemistry
Steering clear of acknowledging the romantic bond
Can I take you home?
Expressing a desire to be with the listener
Or wherever you wanna go
Willingness to go wherever the listener wants
I said "it's fine"
Assuring the listener that everything is okay
All of time
Admitting to deception in the past
I was just lying
Admitting that previous statements were false
To you because
Acknowledging fear and anxiety
I'm fucking scared
Expressing intense fear
And terrified
Feeling terrified
But I need to tell you the truth
Expressing the need for honesty
We could hangout on the weekends
Suggesting spending time together on weekends
You'd tell your mom I'm your best friend
Imagining being introduced as the listener's best friend
Then we'd make-out in the kitchen
Envisioning intimate moments in the kitchen
I'll be whatever you want
Willing to be whatever the listener desires
No doubt we had a connection
Acknowledging a strong connection
Can we follow that direction?
Asking to pursue a romantic direction
Can I be your only exception?
Expressing a desire to be the only exception
Yea
Affirmative response
Can I be
Repeated plea to be the only exception
Can I be your only?
-Can I be
-Can I be
-Can I be
-Can I be your only?
-Can I be
Expressing emotional struggle and the ease of being alone
Can I be
-You know it's fine
-All of the time
-Fuck how I feel
-It's easy to just
-Be on your own
Encouraging independence
So take your time
Encouraging the listener to take their time, hiding personal pain
Take your whole life
-I'll pretend I'm not hurt
-We could hangout on the weekends
Reiteration of a desire for connection and exclusivity
You'd tell your mom I'm your best friend
-Then we'd make-out in the kitchen
-I'll be whatever you want
-No doubt we had a connection
-Can we follow that direction?
-Can I be your only exception?
Repeating the plea to be the only exception
Yea
Affirmative response
Can I be
Repeated plea to be the only exception
Can I be your only?
-Can I be
-Can I be
-Can I be
-Can I be your only?
-Can I be
Continued plea for exclusivity and connection
Can I be
-I'll be whatever you want
-No doubt we had a connection
-Can we follow that direction?
-Can I be your only exception?
Affirmative response
Yea
Repeated plea to be the only exception
Can I be
-Can I be your only?
-Can I be
-Can I be
-Can I be
-Can I be your only?
Affirmative response
Can I be
Final plea to be the only exception
Can I be
-We could hangout on the weekends
Reiteration of a desire for connection and exclusivity
You'd tell your mom I'm your best friend
-Then we'd make-out in the kitchen
-I'll be whatever you want
-No doubt we had a connection
-Can we follow that direction?
-Can I be your only exception?
-Yea
Final affirmative response
