Lyrics

I can't ever be your everything

I cannot fulfill the role of being everything to you

But I wanna be your loverboy, your loverboy

Desire to be your lover and express affection

Girl, this life is what we make it

Life's quality depends on our choices

Done with all the fake shit

Tired of artificial and insincere behavior

I only wanna be your loverboy

Expressing a longing to be your lover

Your loverboy

Reiteration of the desire to be your loverboy

Your loverboy

-

I like chocolate and roses

Listing personal preferences for intimacy

Breakfast in bed and Polaroid poses

Enjoying romantic gestures like breakfast in bed

I like holding you closely

Expressing affection through physical closeness

Tracing with fingers, your lips and your nose ring

Describing tactile exploration of facial features, including a nose ring

Sometimes I think I went soft

Reflecting on a perceived emotional softening

Sad boy got played out cut up and ripped off

Feeling emotionally defeated and taken advantage of

Begging God for a lift up

Seeking divine intervention for a positive change

Like begging for time from a wristwatch

Metaphorically requesting more time, feeling time pressure

Opening up after deafening loss

Opening up emotionally after a significant loss

Is definitely hard

Expressing the difficulty of vulnerability

Let me be happy, I've carried my cross

Desiring happiness after enduring challenges


I can't ever be your everything

Repetition of the desire to be a loverboy, and rejection of fake elements in life

But I wanna be your loverboy, your loverboy

-

Girl, this life is what we make it

-

Done with all the fake shit

-

I only wanna be your loverboy

-

I like being myself around you

Comfortable being oneself in the presence of the other person

Some red wine and you cut to the truth

Truth revealed in an intimate setting with red wine

"Headfirst" feels like a prophecy

Feeling as if going headfirst into experiences is foretelling

We can make life what we want it to be

Belief in the power to shape life according to our desires

Bliss on the hip and the neck

Positive experiences marked on the body

And I'm not ready for the big sleep yet

Not ready for a significant, possibly metaphorical, "big sleep"


I can't ever be your everything

Reiteration of the desire to be a loverboy and rejection of fake elements in life

But I wanna be your loverboy, your loverboy

-

Girl, this life is what we make it

-

Done with all the fake shit

-

I only wanna be your loverboy

-

(Silly fuckin' loverboy)

(Expressing frustration or emphasis, possibly on the desire to be a loverboy)
