Just Hold Me
Yearning Echoes: Embracing Love Amidst Silence
Lyrics
Comfortable as I am
Expressing a sense of comfort in the current state
I need your reassurance
Desiring assurance and support from the partner
And comfortable as you are
Acknowledging the partner's comfort but noting the passage of time
You count the days
Highlighting the partner's awareness of the duration of their relationship
But if I wanted silence
Expressing a preference for communication over silence
I would whisper
Indicating the desire for a specific kind of attention
And if I wanted loneliness
Choosing loneliness over unwanted company
I'd choose to go
Expressing a willingness to face loneliness if it comes to that
And if i like rejection
Humorously mentioning a hypothetical preference for rejection
I'd audition
Referencing the idea of auditioning for rejection as a joke
And if I didn't love you
Emphasizing the importance of love in the relationship
You would know
Asserting that the absence of love would be noticeable
And why can't you just hold me
Expressing a need for physical comfort and closeness
And how come it is so hard
Questioning the difficulty in receiving the desired comfort
And do you like to se me broken
Asking if the partner enjoys witnessing emotional pain
And why do I still care
Questioning why there is still emotional investment
still care
Reiterating the lingering emotional attachment
You say you see the light now
Acknowledging the partner's realization of a positive change
At the end of this narrow hall
Describing a hopeful perspective at the end of a challenging situation
I wish it didn't matter
Expressing a desire for the emotional impact to be less significant
I wish I didn't give you all
Expressing regret about giving too much emotionally
But if I wanted silence
Repeating the preference for communication over silence
I would whisper
Reiterating the desire for a specific type of interaction
And if I wanted loneliness
Choosing loneliness over undesired companionship
I'd choose to go
Expressing a willingness to face loneliness if necessary
And if i like rejection
Humorously mentioning a hypothetical preference for rejection
I'd audition
Referencing the idea of auditioning for rejection as a joke
And if I didn't love you
Emphasizing the importance of love in the relationship
You would know
Asserting that the absence of love would be noticeable
And why can't you just hold me
Reiterating the need for physical comfort and closeness
And how come it is so hard
Questioning the difficulty in receiving the desired comfort
And do you like to see me broken
Asking if the partner enjoys witnessing emotional pain
And why do I still care
Questioning why there is still emotional investment
Poor little misunderstood baby
Describing the speaker as misunderstood and in need of understanding
No one likes a sad face
Highlighting the general aversion to sadness
But I can't remember life without him
Expressing difficulty in imagining life without the partner
I think I did have good days
Reflecting on past positive experiences
I think I did have good days
Repeating the acknowledgment of past positive experiences
And why can't you just hold me
Reiterating the need for physical comfort and closeness
And how come it is so hard
Questioning the difficulty in receiving the desired comfort
And do you like to see me broken
Asking if the partner enjoys witnessing emotional pain
And why do I still care
Questioning why there is still emotional investment
