Just to Know
Unveiling Inner Struggles: Maggie Cassidy's 'Just to Know'
Lyrics
Is it worth looking love in the face
Contemplating the value of facing love directly.
Say you're tired of her honourable ways
Expressing weariness with the partner's virtuous behavior.
And let lust destroy this place
Suggesting the potential destructive impact of succumbing to lust.
Or
Options presented for dealing with love and desire.
Is it worth letting fire from these veins
Considering the consequences of unleashing passionate emotions.
Striking off, runaway with no trace
Contemplating escaping without leaving a trace.
Ignite my duty filled space
Igniting passion in a duty-filled space, possibly conflicting obligations.
Just to know
Emphasizing the central theme of the song: seeking understanding.
How it feels to be free
Exploring the desire to experience freedom.
How it feels to implode
Reflecting on the sensation of self-destructive implosion.
How it feels to be hurt
Acknowledging the familiarity with emotional pain.
To destroy all I know
Contemplating the willingness to dismantle what is known for self-destruction.
Just to know how it feels
Reiterating the quest to understand the sensation of feelings.
Should I listen to the demons of choice
Considering whether to heed the influence of negative internal forces.
The ones who tell me all my values are void
Exploring the possibility of letting envy overshadow joy.
Let envy steal this joy
Acknowledging the potential theft of happiness by negative emotions.
Or
Presenting alternatives for responding to tempting fantasies.
Should I act on the fatal fantasies
Contemplating acting on enticing but potentially harmful dreams.
That tempt and test me through dreams
Reflecting on the internal struggle and the need for action.
Should I lash out
Pondering the possibility of expressing anger or frustration.
Should I lash out
Repeating the question of whether to lash out, emphasizing the internal conflict.
Just to see
Seeking understanding through the act of lashing out.
If I ever slow down
Contemplating the consequences of slowing down, possibly in life's pace.
If I ever slow down I'll need therapy
Highlighting the potential need for therapy if a slowdown occurs.
Oh god if I ever slow down
Expressing concern about the impact of slowing down on well-being.
If I ever slow down
Reiterating the fear and potential consequences of slowing down.
Will the guilt catch me
Pondering whether guilt will catch up if a slowdown is allowed.
