Alarms
Unnoticed Alarms: Love's Silent Warnings in Mello Crum's Melody
Lyrics
Are you gonna tell me if you left?
Questioning whether the person will inform if they departed
'Cause I can't seem to figure it out in my head
Difficulty understanding the situation mentally
And I don't really know if you know me
Uncertainty about mutual understanding
Or maybe you're the one who knows me best
Suggesting that the other person may understand the singer the best
Troublemaker, love forsaken, I'm just tryna hold
Describing oneself as someone causing trouble due to lost love, seeking connection
On to you, but it takes two, I'm not sure if you're there
Expressing doubt about the other person's presence in the relationship
Got your cards, played them right, but could you tell me, did you fold?
Asking if the other person abandoned the situation despite playing their cards well
We had wars, lovely fights, but was it ever really fair?
Reflecting on past conflicts and questioning their fairness
Is it cold inside your heart
Questioning the emotional warmth or lack thereof in the other person
When I hold you in my arms
Noticing a lack of emotional connection when embracing the other person
Like a storm before the calm
Comparing the emotional turmoil to a storm before finding peace
I didn't notice your alarms
Realizing they missed signs of trouble or distress from the other person
I should me knowing better than to look for the signs
Recognizing a pattern of not paying attention to warning signs
But I've taught that I should read between the lines
Believing they should have been more perceptive in understanding indirect cues
And I don't really show when I'm lonely
Hiding loneliness but finding solace in the other person's presence
But there's always company in your eyes
Feeling turmoil and chaos in the current environment and seeking refuge
Floors are shaking, doors are breaking and I need a place to stay
Desperation for shelter or stability amidst turmoil
The night is falling, and I keep calling but you still turn me away
Continuous attempts to reach out being rejected
Is the party over? Are we back to sober? 'Cause I don't think I can
Questioning if the enjoyable phase is over and facing harsh reality
When I look to my side, it doesn't feel right, it's the loneliness that kills the man
Feeling discomfort and emptiness when alone, affecting one's well-being
Is it cold inside your heart
Reiterating the query about emotional warmth in the other person
When I hold you in my arms
Noticing the lack of emotional connection while holding the other person
Like a storm before the calm
Comparing emotional unrest to a turbulent situation before finding peace
I didn't notice your alarms
Realization of missing cues indicating trouble from the other person
Is it cold inside your heart
Repetition questioning the emotional warmth or lack thereof in the other person
When I hold you in my arms
Repetition noticing the lack of emotional connection when embracing the other person
Like a storm before the calm
Repetition comparing the emotional turmoil to a storm before finding peace
I didn't notice your alarms
Repeating the realization of missing signs of distress from the other person
