Paradox
Navigating Love's Paradox: The Church's Melodic Reflection
Lyrics
You are a paradox to me, a senseless maze
You, to the speaker, represent a paradox, a confusing and senseless puzzle.
I run around, I'm looking for you all of my days
The speaker is actively searching for you throughout their life.
The more that you want it, the more that you need it
The more you desire or crave something, the less meaningful or satisfying it becomes.
The less that it does
There is a diminishing return in the speaker's pursuit or desire.
Run out it's rough, too much is enough
When resources or patience run out, the situation becomes difficult, and excess becomes burdensome.
And that's what it was
The previous state or situation was exactly what it appeared to be.
I cannot bear to share you, we can't be alone
The speaker can't bear to share you and feels unable to be alone.
You make me drift up and float, and fall like a stone
Your presence makes the speaker experience a mix of floating and falling emotions.
The more that I see you, the more that I miss you
The more the speaker sees you, the more they miss you, but the less they care.
The less that I care
There is a diminishing emotional attachment or concern for the person.
I know I should try to kiss you goodbye, but
The speaker acknowledges they should say goodbye but struggles because you're never present.
You're never there
Your absence is a consistent reality in the speaker's life.
I've got a nickname for you, I call you weakness
The speaker has labeled you as a weakness, implying a source of vulnerability.
I get a little strength out too, or is it meekness
There is uncertainty whether the speaker gains strength or displays meekness in response to you.
The more that you want it, the more that you need it
The more you desire or crave something, the less meaningful or satisfying it becomes (repeated idea).
The less that it does
Reiteration of the diminishing return in the speaker's pursuit or desire (repeated idea).
Run out it's rough, too much is enough
When resources or patience run out, the situation becomes difficult, and excess becomes burdensome (repeated idea).
And that's what it was
The previous state or situation was exactly what it appeared to be (repeated idea).
You are a paradox to me, a contradiction
You continue to be a paradox, now described as a contradiction.
You're a predicament for me, and a prediction
You are a predicament for the speaker, and your actions are predictable.
