Lyrics
I just wanna be friends with you
I desire a friendship with you
Don't you also stay awake just to
Do you also stay awake thinking about
keep imagining the thought of us
Imagining the possibility of a romantic connection between us
talking between lines like there's no tomorrow
Talking intimately as if there's no future consequence
I just wanna stay up with you
I want to stay awake with you
Make love, not war, just come closer to
Advocating for love over conflict, inviting closeness
my home, I'll show you what it's all about
Inviting you to my space to show you my true self
If you promise to open up
Conditionally, if you promise to be open and vulnerable
swallow my heart
Metaphorically, asking to be embraced emotionally
i wouldn't mind
Expressing willingness and acceptance
eat my brain
Symbolically, asking to be understood deeply
i wouldn't notice
Assuring that emotional changes won't be immediately noticeable
you could be art
Suggesting that the person is a form of artistic beauty
in my arms
Expressing a desire to hold the person in one's arms
you could be
Stating that the person is welcome and protected
safe here
Emphasizing safety and security in the relationship
changed myself one too many times
Acknowledging personal transformations
now a part of me that I don't recognize
Feeling unfamiliar with a part of oneself
is growing and I see the same in you
Observing similar changes in the other person
darling won't you choose your feelings too
Encouraging the person to choose their emotions
swallow my heart
Reiteration of metaphorical emotional sharing
i wouldn't mind
Reassurance of acceptance and understanding
eat my brain
Symbolic invitation to understand deeply
i wouldn't notice
Reiteration that emotional changes won't be immediately noticeable
you could be art
Reaffirming the person's artistic and emotional value
in my arms
Expressing a desire to embrace the person
you could be
Repeating the sentiment of safety and protection
safe here
Emphasizing the idea of being safe in the relationship
