I'm Crushed in His Gaze
Embracing Pain: A Journey Through Love's Turmoil with speakeazie
Lyrics
He takes me home
Being taken home by someone.
Right into his soul
Deep connection, entering the person's innermost self.
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Repetition for emphasis or emotional intensity.
Oh, oh, oh, oh
-You got a real funny way of telling me how you feel
Expressing dissatisfaction with the way feelings are communicated.
Got your hand cross my face like it's some kind of steel, oh
Describing a forceful or harsh touch across the face.
I have a, Smith and Wesson intact
Mentioning preparedness for potential conflict and a chance to retaliate when the person becomes vulnerable.
Waiting for the blow to smack
-I got a chance to attack when I think he feels back, mm
-And damn, I know you feel tricked
Acknowledging a sense of betrayal or deception.
Getting sick in the mix
Feeling unwell in a situation.
Cause your tame is a miss
Not fitting the expected mold or behavior.
Knowing you just can't kiss
Avoiding physical intimacy due to discomfort.
The way that I am
Asserting an authentic self despite external pressures.
When you throwing those hands cause
Reacting defensively to physical aggression.
(He takes me home)
Reiterating being taken home but unable to stay there.
He takes me away to a place I can't stay, mm
-(Right into his soul)
Describing the person's ability to alleviate heartache.
He takes the heartache and he makes it ok
-I'm getting sick of the churning, turning left in my head
Expressing mental turmoil and confusion.
But I know he's in pain, freaking out in his dread
Acknowledging the person's pain and anxiety.
And now I'm healing and sealing all of his scabs
Describing the healing effect on the person but fearing relapse.
It's a beautiful feeling till he thinks back and snaps
-But I got the thing that can make the change
Having a solution for positive change but struggling to find the right time or place.
Thinking over and over for the perfect place
-I choke the bane
Expressing internal conflict, trying to resist the negative influence but succumbing to the person's embrace.
Just shoot and break
-I try to commit but I always take his embrace
-(He takes me home)
Reiterating being taken home, with the person's heart associated with the speaker.
His hearts' with my name and he leaves it to stay, mm
-(Right into his soul)
Highlighting the person's ability to transform difficulties into positivity.
He takes all of the rain and he makes it ok
-Churning and turning, I feel it all in my head
Continuing to feel mental and emotional turmoil.
Burning and yearning, he'll love me till I'm in shreds
Expressing intense desire for love despite potential harm.
And I can not face all his wars
Being unwilling to face the person's conflicts but committed to the relationship.
But I'm willing to stay cause we're deeper and sworn, mm
