Disaster
Embracing Vulnerability: Navigating Love's Uncertain Path with The Lost Wayne
Lyrics
Am I just a phase or what you've been looking for
Questioning whether the speaker is just a temporary interest or someone the listener has been seeking.
Am I just the chase pushing you out of the door
Wondering if the speaker is merely a pursuit leading to the listener's departure.
Am I just the shade blocking out all of your light
Suggesting the possibility of being a hindrance, blocking the positive aspects in the listener's life.
Am I the face you dream about every night
Asking if the speaker is the subject of the listener's recurring dreams.
Why won't you hold me
Expressing a desire for physical closeness and questioning the lack of it.
Why won't you hold me
-Why won't you hold me
-Tell me I'm wrong
Seeking confirmation or denial of being wrong about the need for physical intimacy.
Why won't you hold me
Repeating the desire for physical closeness and seeking validation of belonging.
Why won't you hold me
-Why won't you hold me
-Tell me I belong
Asking for confirmation or denial of belonging in the listener's life.
Should I run away from anyone making me feel
Contemplating whether to distance oneself from anyone causing emotional turmoil.
Should I throw away the cage for this heart of steel
Considering abandoning emotional barriers represented by a "heart of steel."
Should I just forget the feeling of youth inside
Reflecting on the potential loss of youthful emotions and innocence.
Should I stay awake to stop dreaming of you every night
Questioning the need to stay awake to avoid dreams about the listener.
Why won't you hold me
Reiterating the desire for physical closeness and questioning its absence.
Why won't you hold me
-Why won't you hold me
-Tell me I'm wrong
Seeking confirmation or denial of being wrong about the need for physical intimacy.
Why won't you hold me
Expressing the desire for physical closeness and seeking validation of belonging.
Why won't you hold me
-Why won't you hold me
-Tell me I belong
Asking for confirmation or denial of belonging in the listener's life.
Oh I wish that I had all the answers for what I'm supposed to do
Expressing a wish for clarity on what actions to take in the relationship.
But I'm terrified of the disaster for when I fall in love with you
Conveying fear of the potential disaster when falling in love with the listener.
With you
Repetition emphasizing the fear associated with falling in love with the listener.
With you
-With you
-So why won't you hold me
Repeating the desire for physical closeness and questioning its absence.
Why won't you hold me
-Why won't you hold me
-Tell me I'm wrong
Seeking confirmation or denial of being wrong about the need for physical intimacy.
Why won't you hold me
Expressing the desire for physical closeness and seeking validation of belonging.
Why won't you hold me
