Lyrics
Would you believe if I said I'm in awe
Expressing a sense of admiration and amazement, questioning the listener's belief in the statement.
While I'm wishing for more and I'm hoping I'm no bore at all
Expressing a desire for more, hoping not to be perceived as dull or uninteresting.
And I glistened and listened, to every word that'd fall
Noting attentive listening and appreciation for every spoken word.
And I know you're the same but I can't put the blame on your cause
Acknowledging similarities with the listener but not assigning blame for certain issues.
I hesitate, meditate, while I sit back and watch
Describing a state of hesitation and contemplation, observing without immediate action.
I ran through my crowd, I made myself proud enough
Boasting about personal achievements and feeling proud in a crowd.
Give me five, no ten, no 15 I'll get that up
Expressing determination to achieve more, quantifying success with increments of effort.
What's the point of the noise if you're not here to give me love
Questioning the purpose of external distractions if they don't involve the listener's presence and love.
And I was feeling all but blue
Describing an emotional state, possibly melancholy but not explicitly stated.
Oh would you see me as a sorry, stupid fool…
Pondering how the listener perceives the speaker, questioning self-worth.
Would you look at the lights, they're so pretty tonight
Appreciating the beauty of lights, setting a positive atmosphere.
But you say I'm a "man" and I'm "the only one who understands"
Quoting the listener's view of the speaker as someone who understands and emphasizing masculinity.
I hesitate, meditate, while I sit back and watch
Reiteration of hesitation and meditation in observing without immediate action.
I ran through my crowd, I made myself proud enough
Repeating the theme of personal pride and accomplishment.
Yeah! Give me five, no ten, no 15 I'll get that up
Continuing the desire for recognition and success in increments.
What's the point of the noise if you're not there to give me love
Repeating the question about the purpose of noise without the listener's love.
I hesitate, meditate, while I sit back and watch
Reiteration of the contemplative state and observation without immediate action.
I ran through my crowd, I made myself proud enough
Repeating the pride in personal achievements.
Give me five, no ten, no 15 I'll get that up
Continuing the desire for recognition and success in increments.
What's the point of this noise if you're not there to give me love
Reiterating the question about the purpose of noise without the listener's love.
