Make It Work
Unveiling Hidden Desires: Swiss Banks' 'Make It Work' Reflections
Lyrics
Caught me in the kitchen with the colors that you wear
Caught in a situation where the singer notices the distinctive clothing or style the other person is wearing
After all you've learned hasn't anyone taught you to play fair
Questioning the fairness of the other person's actions despite their learning experiences
Have you ever felt a loss soul so cold it chills your bones
Describing a feeling of extreme emptiness and coldness that penetrates deeply
Wearing a disguise, living in a lie in the place you feel at home
Living a fabricated life under a false identity while feeling comfortable in that environment
At home
Reiterating the feeling of being at home in the mentioned false environment
Cancel my subscription to the functioning universe
Metaphorically ending one's connection to the functioning world or societal norms
I'm not doing very well just in case you couldn't tell
Expressing personal struggles indirectly, suggesting an inability to cope
So save your you're hurtful words
Requesting the other person to refrain from hurtful remarks
Have you ever felt a loss oh so cold it chills you're bones
Reiterating the extreme coldness felt within oneself
Wearing a disguise, living in a lie in a place you feel at home
Living under a false persona in a place where one feels comfortable
At home
Re-emphasizing the feeling of comfort and belonging in the false environment
Don't ever touch me
Declaring a boundary, expressing a reluctance to be physically touched
Cause I'm nobody's love
Asserting independence and stating a lack of desire to be anyone's romantic partner
Don't try to hold me
Reiterating the unwillingness to be held or confined by someone else
Cause I'm nobody's love
Emphasizing a lack of interest in being someone else's romantic interest
And I'm speaking now to those who understand what can't be known by facts and figures alone
Addressing those who understand intangible aspects beyond mere facts and statistics
So this is the place I'll choose to lighten up the mood
Choosing to lighten the atmosphere in the mentioned place or situation
And with any luck we'll be waking up
Expressing hope for a fresh start or a new beginning
Like babies both brand new
Comparing a potential fresh start to the innocence and purity of newborn babies
Brand new
Reinforcing the notion of starting anew
Don't ever touch me
Repeating the assertion of not wanting physical contact
Cause I'm nobody's love
Reiterating the refusal to be romantically involved or attached
Don't try to hold me
Emphasizing the resistance to being held or confined romantically
Cause I'm nobody's love
Re-emphasizing the desire to remain independent in matters of love
Don't ever touch me
Stating again the reluctance to be physically touched
Cause I'm nobody's love
Reiterating the declaration of not being anyone's romantic partner
And I'm speaking now to those who understand what can't be known by facts and figures alone
Speaking to those who comprehend the complexities beyond empirical data alone
Cause I'm nobody's love
Reasserting the stance of not belonging to anyone romantically
I'm nobody's love
Emphasizing again the declaration of not being romantically involved with anyone
I'm nobody's love
Repeating the statement of not being anyone's romantic partner
Cause I'm nobody
Concluding the assertion of not belonging romantically to anyone
