LIGHTER
Unveiling Love's Complex Tapestry: LIGHTER by NICO TURNER
Lyrics
The Heart wants what it wants
The heart desires what it desires.
Don't grow cold wondering why
Don't become emotionally distant pondering the reasons.
Don't grow cold trying to find
Don't become emotionally distant while searching.
The space in the line
Refers to a gap or emotional distance in the relationship.
Between you and I
Describes the emotional space between two individuals.
And I'm sorry
Expressing regret or apology.
I was warned but I fought it
Despite being warned, the speaker resisted.
I was born but I lost it
Expresses a sense of losing something essential after birth.
I was born then I died
Reiterating the cyclical nature of birth and death metaphorically.
A thousand times
Emphasizes the repetitive nature of the speaker's experiences.
Inside your mind
Suggests a presence within the thoughts of the other person.
But I wanted you more than any other
Desire for the addressed person surpasses all others.
And I thought I knew better and better
Admitting a lack of understanding and improvement in love.
How to love you
Desiring to love but lacking the knowledge to do so.
But I never learned it
Regret for not learning how to love properly.
I just crashed and burned it
Failure and destruction in the speaker's attempts at love.
Now it's all over
Indicates the conclusion of the romantic relationship.
My Love wouldn't let me see
Love prevented the speaker from recognizing internal struggles.
All the death inside of me
Acknowledging hidden emotional pain within the speaker.
Your Heart always trying to heal
Highlights the effort of the heart to heal emotional wounds.
What it couldn't feel
Refers to the incapacity of the heart to feel certain emotions.
What it could never be
Expressing what the heart could never achieve or become.
And it all happens for a reason
Belief that everything happens with a purpose or cause.
I was warned but I fought it
Similar to line 7, the speaker resisted despite warnings.
I was born then I lost it
Reiteration of losing something significant after birth.
I was born then I died
Emphasizing the cyclical nature of birth and death metaphorically.
I was born
Repeating the idea of being born, suggesting repetition.
Then I died a thousand times inside your mind
The speaker's presence and impact on the other person's thoughts.
A thousand times inside your mind
Continuation of the speaker's influence on the other person.
