Lyrics
It fell like acid rain
Describing the emotional impact as intense and corrosive, akin to acid rain.
Your touch, the way you felt, your flame
Referencing the sensations and emotions evoked by the person, their essence, and passion.
I thought I'd figured out,
Believed to have understood the person's true nature or intentions.
Knew what your mask was all about
Thought to have comprehended the facade or false front the person projected.
You said you're in control
Person claims authority or control over their life or situation.
You're not a hopeless soul, you know
Asserting that the person isn't without hope or direction.
But there are little holes
Noting the existence of flaws or vulnerabilities.
And I know I can't make you...
Understanding that they can't compel the person to...
Shine
Encouraging the person to shine, to discover their true potential.
You oughta to figure it out
Suggesting the person needs to comprehend something crucial.
A long lost goldmine
Comparing the person's hidden potential to an untapped goldmine.
I wanna know your body or draw the line
Expressing a desire for deeper intimacy or setting boundaries.
A diamond in rough
Highlighting the person's potential despite their current raw state.
Your turning heads but don't feel love
Not feeling genuine affection despite gaining attention or admiration.
So let's take off that veil
Encouraging the person to reveal their true self by removing their facade.
Don't think your hiding is insane
Warning against considering their attempts to hide as irrational.
Show me who you are
Requesting authenticity and vulnerability from the person.
And when the depth begins to show
Desiring to support the person through their emotional depths.
I want to pick you up but I know
Wanting to help but acknowledging personal limitations.
I can't make you shine
Reiterating the inability to force the person to shine.
You oughta to figure it out
Repeating the need for the person to realize something crucial.
A long lost goldmine
Recalling the untapped potential compared to a goldmine.
I wanna know your body or draw the line
Expressing a desire for intimacy while setting boundaries if needed.
If you're a stream don't let me in
Metaphorically asking the person not to involve them if they're not emotionally available.
Cause I need a river to wade through
Expressing the need for a deeper emotional connection rather than a superficial one.
