Lyrics
I don't think I know you and you would say me too
The speaker doesn't feel familiar with the person, and the feeling is mutual.
I pull up my head and still you keep walking through
Despite raising their head, the person keeps walking past without acknowledgment.
You finally said the thing
The person finally expresses something the speaker has always been fearful of.
I've been always afraid of, been always afraid of
Reiterating a long-standing fear that has been consistently present.
You always thought that we were just cool
The other person thought their relationship was casual, but the speaker has deeper feelings.
But actually I've been crushing on you
Despite appearing cool, the speaker has been secretly infatuated with the other person.
You not seeing me makes me feel like a fool
The lack of acknowledgment makes the speaker feel foolish.
But what if the moment is right now, right now?
Pondering whether the current moment is the right time to express feelings.
To say something, right now, right now
Suggesting that now might be the appropriate time to speak up.
To feel that thing, right now, right now
Expressing a desire to experience a particular emotion in the present moment.
To be that person, right now
Desiring to embody a certain persona right now.
Used to write things on my own hand
Recalling a habit of writing reminders on the hand to avoid forgetting things.
So I wouldn't forget
Reiterating the difficulty of forgetting something.
Can't get you out of my head
The person is stuck in the speaker's thoughts.
Can't remember the last time I felt like that
Reflecting on a past intense emotion that is hard to recall.
And I don't know how
Expressing uncertainty about the current situation.
What if the moment is right now?
Pondering if the present moment is opportune.
I would like to know you, but I don't know 'bout you
Expressing a wish to know the other person better.
I speak up but still I don't get to you
Despite speaking up, the speaker struggles to connect with the other person.
Here is finally the thing, I already knew of, I already knew of
Revealing something known to the speaker, now acknowledged by the other person.
Wished you would let me get through to you
Expressing a desire for the other person to let them in emotionally.
But instead when they ask you, you do
The other person answers differently when asked by others compared to the speaker.
You not listening makes me feel like a fool
The lack of attentive listening makes the speaker feel foolish.
But what if the moment is right now, right now?
Repeating the contemplation of whether the current moment is suitable for expression.
To say something, right now, right now
Emphasizing the urgency to say something at this moment.
To feel that thing, right now, right now
Expressing the desire to feel a certain way in the present.
To be that person, right now
Yearning to embody a specific persona in the present.
Used to write things on my own hand
Recalling the habit of writing reminders on the hand to avoid forgetting things.
So I wouldn't forget
Reiterating the difficulty of forgetting something.
Can't get you out of my head
The person is constantly on the speaker's mind.
Can't remember the last time I felt like that
Struggling to recall the last time the speaker felt a certain way.
And I don't know how
Expressing uncertainty about the current situation.
What if the moment is right now?
Pondering if the present moment is opportune.
