Could Never Love
Unraveling Heartache: Millie Mountain's 'Could Never Love' Emotionally Explored
Lyrics
Saw you slowly walking, you were walking away
Saw someone walking away slowly
The gift of light and I stopped you there to say
Stopped them to express something important
I can't bear to live with one more gaze
Can't handle more longing gazes
The streams running through my veins
Feeling emotional intensity
Somehow you still see me, even when I'm erased
Despite disappearing, still being seen by the person
Even when I would let you leave, oh how could I
Struggling to let the person go
Would taste defeat and all that was left was the sound of my heart beating
Feeling defeated, heartbeats as the only sound
When I could never love
Expressing incapability of loving
Could never love
Reiteration of incapacity to love
Could never
Emphasizing inability to love
When I could never love
Continuing to express inability to love
Could never love
Reiterating incapacity to love
I could never
Emphasizing personal inability to love
Drifting by like breeze does
Passing by like a breeze
Then I knock you to the ground
Metaphorical knocking someone down
The gift of life should please us
Life's blessings should bring joy
Finding reasons to frown
Seeking negativity in positive situations
Leaving stains on the carpet floor
Leaving emotional marks and consequences
Every day see them grow some more
Witnessing negative impacts grow
Please can you forgive me, I'm insane
Asking for forgiveness due to feeling unstable mentally
If I can't smile
Inability to smile due to overwhelming feelings
Could eat you up, I just lose control
Feeling like emotions can overpower and harm others
Let go of some things
Releasing some emotional baggage
Don't know how to rest
Difficulty in finding peace or relaxation
Got me stressed and I can't think anymore
Overwhelmed and unable to think clearly
See I could never love
Continuing to express inability to love
Could never love
Reiteration of incapacity to love
Could never
Emphasizing inability to love
See I could never love
Continuing to express inability to love
Could never love
Reiterating incapacity to love
I could never
Emphasizing personal inability to love
And you'll see me looking fine, you
Assurance of appearing okay externally
Yeah you'll see me looking fine
Being seen as fine in public, while struggling internally
In your crowds you see me cry
Visible emotions in public, hidden from the other person
Never see you in disguise
Other person's emotions hidden from view
And you'll see me looking fine
Masking true emotions in public appearances
You'll see me cry
External display of pain and internal struggle
You'll see me die
Metaphorical depiction of internal turmoil
Die
Expressing emotional distress and struggle
