Wanted You
Navigating Love's Maze: Taylor Holyfield's Emotional Journey
Lyrics
You hate the things we don't say
You dislike the unspoken issues between us.
I hate that three dots ruin my day
I dislike how the anticipation created by three dots in a message affects my mood negatively.
Hold down backspace
Erasing text with the backspace key, possibly suppressing emotions.
Pushing back feelings that are to late
Suppressing emotions that surfaced too late.
I hate the things in the way
I dislike the obstacles in our way.
When scrolling down your page
Obstacles on your social media page that delay my connection to you.
Always seems to delay my being close to you
Delays in getting close to you caused by external factors.
Why you complicated?
Questioning why you make things complicated.
Why you so confusing?
Expressing confusion about your actions and intentions.
Why you always acting like I'm just using you
Feeling like you're being treated as if you're just using the other person.
Cause I can't and I won't though you hurt me the most
Despite being hurt the most, I can't and won't let go.
I didn't want you on the back burner no
Rejecting the idea of putting you on hold or in a less important position.
Didn't want you as a rebound no
Rejecting the idea of using you as a rebound after a previous relationship.
Maybe I wanted you
Admitting a possible desire for you.
Maybe I wanted you
Reiterating the possibility of wanting you.
You hate the things we go through
You dislike the challenges we face together.
Leaving me on read no blue
Feeling ignored with no response (on read, no blue message).
Staring at an arrow like what the hell did I do?
Confusion about a situation, represented by staring at an arrow.
I hate when we go grey
Disliking when things become unclear or uncertain (go grey).
It's the only thing that gets to me
Being affected by uncertainty as it is the only thing that bothers the speaker.
Reminds me that connection means everything
Highlighting the importance of connection in a relationship.
