Tell Me I'm Wrong
Love's Deception: Unraveling Emotions in Night Spins' Tell Me I'm Wrong
Lyrics
Please tell me what I’m feelin ain’t real
Please tell me the emotions I'm experiencing aren't genuine.
Please tell me I ain’t still head over heels
Requesting confirmation that I'm not deeply in love anymore.
Please tell me that this feeling is real
Seeking assurance that the intense emotion is authentic.
You got me head over heel
Acknowledging being deeply in love.
Please tell me what I felt for so long
Asking about emotions felt for an extended period.
Please please please
Repeated plea for confirmation.
Tell me I’m wrong
Requesting to be told that feelings are incorrect.
Tell me I’m wrong
Reiteration of the desire to be proven wrong about emotions.
Tell me I’m wrong
Continued plea to be told that emotions are mistaken.
I need to tell you the truth
Expressing the need to convey the truth.
I can’t stand to be in love with you
Admitting difficulty in being in love with the person.
Please tell me the truth
Asking for honesty about the situation.
You got me hanging onto you
Indicating emotional dependence on the person.
Shake it off I need to shake it off quick
Expressing the need to quickly overcome emotions.
I should have known when to quit
Reflecting on the hindsight realization of when to end things.
Should have left me alone
Expressing a desire to be left alone.
Should have told me I’m wrong
Wishing to be informed that emotions are incorrect.
Dammit to hell I was almost to where
Expressing frustration at the proximity of emotional relief.
I could sleep without screaming your name
Describing the struggle to sleep without thinking about the person.
Your body done changed but girl I’m still the same
Noting physical changes but asserting emotional constancy.
I was weak, please believe I still am.
Admitting weakness and continued emotional struggle.
Should have left me alone
Reiterating the desire to be left alone emotionally.
Should have told me I’m wrong
Repeating the request to be told that emotions are incorrect.
Dammit to hell I was almost to where
Expressing frustration at almost achieving emotional peace.
I could sleep without screaming your name
Describing the difficulty in sleeping without thinking about the person.
