Maybe I Want You
Craving Connection: Unraveling the Fear of Empty Love in 'Maybe I Want You'
Lyrics
I'm craving affection but am I feeling you
I have a desire for affection, but I'm uncertain if I have feelings for you
I want some attention and I'm not in the mood
I desire attention, but currently, I'm not in the right emotional state
Oh but the thought of empty love is so unnerving to me
The idea of love that lacks substance troubles and unsettles me
If I give up my heart
If I invest my emotions fully
Will I still be able to breathe
I'm concerned if I'll still feel alive and able to function
Maybe I want you
Repeated expression questioning the possibility of desiring the person
What if I do
-Maybe I want you
-What if I do
-Maybe I want you
-What if I do
-Maybe I want you
-What if I do
-Just tell me is it worth it worth it
Asking whether pursuing this relationship is worthwhile
Don't take my love and burn it burn it
Advising against taking love and destroying it
Just tell me is it worth it worth it
Questioning again if the relationship is worth the effort
Don't take my love and burn it
Reiterating not to destroy the love that exists
I'm hurting
Expressing emotional pain or distress
A lasting fear of intimacy
Feeling anxious or afraid of getting close to someone emotionally
I want you here
Expressing a desire for the person to be present
Never mind leave me be
However, currently, preferring to be left alone
I have a fear of intimacy
Reiterating fear of emotional closeness
Commitment is free
Suggesting that commitment doesn’t cost anything
Would you do that for me
Asking if the person would commit without cost
Maybe I want you
Repeatedly questioning the possibility of desiring the person
What if I do
-Maybe I want you
-What if I do
-Maybe I want you
-What if I do
-Maybe I want you
-What if I do
-But still the thought of empty love is so scary to me
Continuing to express fear regarding superficial or hollow love
If I give up my heart
Concern if giving all emotionally will affect personal well-being
Will I still be able to breathe
Worrying if emotional vulnerability will impact the ability to live fully
I have a fear of intimacy
Reiterating fear of getting emotionally close to someone
Commitment is free
Emphasizing that commitment shouldn’t come with a price
Would you do that for me
Reiterating the question of whether the person would commit freely
