Embracing the Monster Within: Love's Unyielding Struggle
Lyrics
Don't let me down easy
Expressing a desire not to be let down gently but rather to confront a situation directly.
Go watch the world spin on your own
Encouraging someone to observe the world's movement independently.
Staying is easy
Remaining in a situation is uncomplicated or straightforward.
But I can't give you what you want
Unable to provide what is desired or expected.
I'm not the collected type
Not inclined to be composed or organized.
Just a place you're wasting time in
Merely a location where time is being wasted.
Leaving is better than lying
Suggesting that leaving is a better option than deceit or dishonesty.
But if you stay a while longer, I could try to pull the steel from your back
Offering to attempt removing emotional barriers or difficulties.
Maybe apologise for my own damn reflection that I can't seem to see past
Possibly expressing regret or apology for one's own flaws or self-perception.
My body's a cage, my mind is a monster
Feeling confined physically while the mind seems to possess frightening characteristics.
I'm just afraid I'll drag you under my skin
Fearful of involving someone in personal struggles or problems.
But I'll never ever stop, I'll never ever stop
Determined to persist despite challenges or obstacles.
No, you're not safe, my heart is a wildfire
Indicating that being with the singer might not be safe emotionally.
I'm tryna change, I just keep burning higher
Struggling to change for the better but continuously intensifying negative emotions.
But I'll never ever stop, I'll never ever stop loving you
Committing to never cease loving despite personal difficulties.
Do we gotta talk tonight?
Questioning the necessity of a conversation tonight.
Let's leave it like this, we're not broken just yet
Suggesting that the relationship isn't irreparably damaged yet.
Not sure I could deal with that kind of a mess
Expressing uncertainty about handling a potentially messy situation.
Is that what you want
Asking if causing distance is the desired outcome.
Don't get too close to me
Warning against getting emotionally close.
You know we gotta cut the lights
Implying the need to end or conceal something.
And try to forget all these bullshit dreams
Suggesting the need to forget unrealistic aspirations involving the relationship.
Of you and I
Referencing unrealistic dreams specifically involving "you and I."
My body's a cage, my mind is a monster
Reiteration of feeling physically trapped and mentally troubled.
I'm just afraid I'll drag you under my skin
Reiterating the fear of involving someone in personal struggles.
But I'll never ever stop, I'll never ever stop
Reaffirming determination to persist despite challenges.
No, you're not safe, my heart is a wildfire
Reinforcing the notion that being emotionally involved might not be safe.
I'm tryna change, I just keep burning higher
Continuing to struggle to change but experiencing escalating emotional turmoil.
But I'll never ever stop, I'll never ever stop loving you
Commitment to never stop loving despite personal struggles.
