Busted Forces
Busted Forces: Love's Dance of Uncertainty
Lyrics
Wasting days inside
Expressing a lack of productivity or purpose by spending time indoors.
Come, walk with me down to 113
Invitation to accompany the speaker to location 113.
You take my hand so you can ask the time
Someone takes the speaker's hand to inquire about the time.
Little tan lady, soft and straightened taking glances when our eyes align
Describing a woman, possibly interested, stealing glances when their eyes meet.
"You never come in town"
Quoting someone's statement about the speaker's absence in town.
Well I'm here now
Asserting the speaker's presence in the current moment.
In your polkodot on red
Describing the woman's attire - polka dots on red.
Looking down at you those arms wrapped around
The speaker observing the woman embracing someone else.
A side of you I think I like instead
Expressing interest in a different aspect of the woman's personality.
Body rising, I'm hypnotized and I don't think imma see you again
Feeling captivated by the woman, unsure if they'll meet again.
Don't wanna let go, I know you don't
Both the speaker and the woman reluctant to part ways.
But who knows
Expressing uncertainty about the future.
Maybe time will tell and you can tell me that you told me so
Waiting for time to reveal the truth, possibly expecting confirmation of a prediction.
Until then just keep on lying to me I'll keep laying low
Willing to accept deception while maintaining a low profile.
Swear that it ain't only just because you're gorgeous
Asserting that the attraction isn't solely based on physical appearance.
I hope you know
Hopeful that the woman understands the speaker's intentions.
And who knows
Continued uncertainty about love's impact.
Maybe love has always left me lost but with you it won't
Belief that being with the woman won't lead to feeling lost in love.
Until then just keep on hanging on and I won't let it go
Commitment to holding on without letting go of the relationship.
Standing in my living room in busted forces
The speaker stands in a room surrounded by broken or malfunctioning forces.
The superlows
Reference to extreme emotional lows or difficult situations.
And it's hard to focus
Difficulty concentrating due to the woman's presence.
With you looking like this girl and finding myself alone with you
Expressing desire while feeling alone with the woman.
Is all I wanna do baby
Willingness to initiate something romantic with the woman.
And make a move with you
Expressing an intention to take action or progress the relationship.
Still I'm wasting day inside, but
Despite being indoors, changes are occurring in the speaker's life.
Things are changing feeling estranged and I've got plans for us to realign
Plans to re-establish a connection, feeling distant or disconnected.
I'm still yours baby, now or later
Declaring loyalty to the woman, regardless of timing.
Saving days for you to make the time
Reserving time for the woman to spend together.
Don't wanna let go, I know you don't
Mutual reluctance to let go of each other.
But who knows
Reiterating uncertainty about the future.
Maybe time will tell and you can tell me that you told me so
Waiting for time to prove a point, possibly predicting an outcome.
Until then just keep on lying to me I'll keep laying low
Willing to accept deception while maintaining a low profile.
Swear that it ain't only just because you're gorgeous
Reaffirming that attraction isn't solely based on appearance.
I hope you know
Hoping the woman understands the depth of feelings.
And who knows
Continued uncertainty about the impact of love.
Maybe love has always left me lost but with you it won't
Belief that being with the woman won't lead to feeling lost in love.
Until then just keep on hanging on and I won't let it go
Commitment to holding on without letting go of the relationship.
Standing in my living room in busted forces
Reiteration of being surrounded by broken or malfunctioning forces in the living room.
The superlows
Reference to extreme emotional lows or difficult situations.
