The Crush
Unspoken Longings: A Symphony of Hidden Desires in 'The Crush'
Lyrics
Call off the crush, it started with my arm
Requesting to end the infatuation, possibly a romantic interest that initiated physically.
Across your chest it was enough
Describing a close physical connection, perhaps an embrace.
There is so much that never goes away
Acknowledging persistent feelings or memories that endure.
There is a crush from how our arms can weigh
Highlighting the weight or burden of emotions associated with physical contact.
And deep beneath the sheets I see
Intimate exploration beneath the sheets, discovering another's familiarity with breathing patterns.
Another arm that knows the way you breathe
Noting the presence of another person intimately known.
I am not blind and I can see
Asserting awareness and perception, not being oblivious to the situation.
In the snow you'll never be with me
Expressing the unlikelihood of being together in a metaphorical snowy landscape.
I said, no, it's not right
Affirming that the situation is not morally or emotionally right.
I know it's not alright
Acknowledging the wrongness of the situation.
No, it's not right
Reiterating that the current state of affairs is not ethically acceptable.
I know it's not alright, alright with me
Acknowledging personal discomfort with the situation.
So I should rush into another arm
Considering seeking comfort in another relationship.
Across my chest there is enough
Describing a reciprocal physical connection on one's own terms.
There is so much that never goes away
Repeating the persistence of feelings or memories that linger.
There is a crush from how our arms can weigh
Reiterating the emotional weight associated with physical contact.
And deep beneath the sheets I see
Revisiting the intimate exploration beneath the sheets.
Another arm that knows the way you breathe
Observing another's intimate connection with a familiar breathing pattern.
I am not blind and I can see
Emphasizing awareness and sight, seeing the reality of the situation.
In the snow you'll never be with me
Highlighting the unlikelihood of being together in a metaphorical snowy landscape, reinforcing the separation.
I said, no, it's not right
Repeating the assertion that the situation is not morally or emotionally right.
I know it's not alright
Acknowledging the wrongness of the situation.
No, it's not right
Reiterating the view that the current state of affairs is not ethically acceptable.
I know it's not alright, alright with me
Expressing personal discomfort with the situation.
No, it's not right
Stating again that the situation is not morally or emotionally right.
I know it's not alright
Acknowledging the wrongness of the situation.
No, it's not right
Reiterating the view that the current state of affairs is not ethically acceptable.
I know it's not alright, alright with me
Expressing personal discomfort with the situation.
Call off the crush that goes down to our legs
Renewing the request to end the infatuation, extending it to a lower part of the body.
It waits for dark, it waits for dusk
Describing the timing of the infatuation, which waits for darkness or dusk.
Our eyes will close upon another day
Reflecting on the closure of a day and the abundance of experiences.
There is so much, there is enough
Reiterating the existence of enduring feelings or memories.
