Walking on Nails
Walking on Nails: A Love Dance of Beautiful Pain
Lyrics
Hey, it's saara
Introduction and acknowledgment of the singer
I know I should've called, but
Regret for not communicating earlier
You know how I really feel
Expressing genuine emotions
You let me be me
Appreciation for being allowed to be oneself
I'm just not ready for the world to know
Unpreparedness to reveal something to the world
Not yet
Not ready at the present moment
You, you got me good, you got me bad
Acknowledgment of conflicting aspects in the relationship
You make me run, but I keep running back
Feeling drawn back despite attempts to move away
We're running off
Both involved parties are escaping together
I'm gone, I'm stuck on you
Feeling trapped or deeply connected
Sometimes it hurts so much
Experiencing intense emotional pain
But I still want it, I want it, I want it
Despite the pain, desire persists
I know my heart enough
Understanding one's heart and feelings
Let's be honest, be honest, be honest
Encouraging honesty in expression
It's like I'm walking on nails
Feeling like enduring extreme discomfort
My hands in the fire
Sensations akin to being in a fiery situation
Waiting for your lips to make me a liar
Anticipating falsehood from a kiss
Making me burn in beautiful pain
Experiencing intense pain within love
Loving is the same as walking on nails
Equating love to a painful experience
Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh, walking on nails
Reiteration of the comparison between love and walking on nails
Loving is the same as walking on nails
-Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh, walking on nails
-Loving is the same as walking on nails
-You, you're on my mind, I'm on my back
Thinking about someone intensely
You've bent me [up?], baby, but I won't break
Being influenced or affected by the person
It never stops
The cycle of emotions continues
I need your touch on me
Desiring physical contact
Sometimes it hurts so much
Experiencing intense emotional pain
But I still want it, I want it, I want it
Despite pain, the desire for something persists
I know my heart enough
Knowing one's feelings deeply
Let's be honest, be honest, be honest
Encouraging honesty in expression
It's like I'm walking on nails
Reiteration of the comparison between love and walking on nails
My hands in the fire
-Waiting for your lips to make me a liar
-Making me burn in beautiful pain
-Loving is the same as walking on nails
-Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh, walking on nails
Continued emphasis on the comparison between love and walking on nails
Loving is the same as walking on nails
-Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh, walking on nails
-Loving is the same as walking on nails
-Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh, wa
Repetition and emphasis on the analogy between love and walking on nails
Loving is the same as walking on nails
-(Wa-oh-oh) wa-oh, walking on nails
-Loving you, loving you, yeah
-It's like I'm walking on nails
Reiteration of the comparison between love and walking on nails
My hands in the fire
-Waiting for your lips to make me a liar
-Making me burn in beautiful pain
-Loving is the same as walking on nails
-(Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh) (walking on nails, my hands in the fire)
Continued portrayal of love as a painful experience
Waiting for your lips to make me a liar
-(Making me burn in beautiful pain)
-Loving is the same as walking on nails
-Wa-oh-oh, wa-oh, walking on nails
Reiteration and final emphasis on the analogy between love and walking on nails
Loving is the same as walking on nails
Continued emphasis on the analogy between love and walking on nails
