Attached
Unspoken Bonds: Navigating Love's Delicate Balance
Lyrics
We might've talked until the sun rose,
We may have talked extensively until sunrise.
In an embrace so close.
In a very close and intimate embrace.
We might've talked about our past.
We might have discussed our respective histories.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not attached.
Despite appearances, I want to clarify that I'm not emotionally attached.
We might've kissed and the sparks flew,
We might have shared kisses with intense emotions.
And I thought that I could love you.
I believed, at that moment, that I could fall in love with you.
But in a minute it'll pass,
However, these feelings are fleeting and will soon pass.
'Cause I'm not saying I'm attached.
I want to make it clear that I am not claiming to be emotionally attached.
Oh, but if that were true then the sky isn't blue.
If my lack of attachment were true, then fundamental truths like the sky being blue would be in question.
And the grass isn't green, I don't want you to be with me.
I don't want you to be in a relationship with me.
Pigs could fly to the moon, Elephants are small and this ache is too.
Using exaggerated scenarios to emphasize the impossibility of attachment.
My heart ain't in your hands, but hey, I'm not saying I'm attached.
My heart is not under your control, but I am not claiming attachment.
I'm not saying I'm attached.
Reiterating the statement that there is no emotional attachment.
I might've cried for weeks, oh.
I might have cried for an extended period.
Might've lost a lot of sleep, no.
Possibly losing sleep due to emotional distress.
Like my heart fell into glass,
Feeling fragile, as if my heart could break like glass.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not attached.
Despite these emotions, I want to emphasize that I'm not emotionally attached.
They say you won't remember me,
Others may perceive me as someone you won't remember, just casual company.
I'm just "casual company".
Being regarded as someone insignificant in your life.
I'm just "one out of your stash",
Being just one among many in your social circle.
But that's ok, I'm not attached.
Accepting this status, and reiterating the lack of emotional attachment.
Oh, but if that weren't a lie then glitter doesn't shine.
If the lack of attachment were a lie, then other basic truths would also be untrue.
And the UK never rains, and you didn't step on that plane.
Contrasting unlikely scenarios to emphasize the sincerity of the claim.
I hate the radio and I can't stand the snow.
Expressing dislike for common things, highlighting the uniqueness of the lack of attachment.
I didn't burn out like a match if I wasn't attached
Denying a rapid burnout in the absence of emotional attachment.
Like the "Do Not Disturb" sign on your hotel door.
Comparing the situation to a "Do Not Disturb" sign on a hotel door.
Like your open suitcase on your bedroom floor.
Using the image of an open suitcase to symbolize being unpacked in your life.
Like your favourite necklace hanging from your neck.
Referencing personal items like a necklace, suggesting a sense of intimacy.
Like me, lying on your chest.
Describing a close and intimate connection, lying on your chest.
If the sky isn't blue then I didn't fall for you.
If fundamental truths like the sky being blue were in question, then falling for you would not have happened.
And if the grass isn't green, I don't wish you stayed with me.
If basic elements like grass being green were not true, I wouldn't wish you had stayed with me.
Pigs could fly to the moon, Elephants are small and this ache is too.
Reiterating unlikely scenarios to emphasize the absence of emotional attachment.
My heart ain't in your hands, but hey, I'm not saying I'm attached.
Emphasizing that while the heart is not under your control, claiming no emotional attachment.
I'm not saying I'm attached.
Repeating the assertion that there is no emotional attachment.
But you know I got attached.
A final acknowledgment that despite everything, emotional attachment did occur.
