Something's Wrong
Love's Fading Echo: Unraveling the Strains in 'Something's Wrong'
Lyrics
Something's wrong
Expressing a sense that something is not right or amiss.
When I call you on the phone,
Noticing a change in the partner's behavior when calling.
And your voice seems so cold, I know something's wrong
Perceiving emotional distance in the partner's voice, indicating a problem.
Something's wrong
Sensing a problem when friends mock or ridicule the speaker.
When my friends all laugh at me,
Friends noticing issues that the speaker is oblivious to.
Cause they see what I don't see, I know something's wrong
Realizing that something is wrong due to external observations.
I wish you'd only told me,
Expressing a desire for open communication and honesty.
I was buying all the lies that you sold me,
Regretting being deceived and misled by the partner's lies.
But I'd rather go on even if something's wrong than
Choosing to continue despite the issues rather than facing a life without love.
Try to get along without your love, baby,
Emphasizing the importance of the partner's love in the speaker's life.
Try and get along without your love
Expressing difficulty in coping without the partner's love.
Something's wrong each time I try to kiss you,
Encountering problems when attempting physical intimacy.
I can see that soon I'm gonna miss you
Anticipating the future pain of missing the partner.
My baby
Endearment term for the partner.
Cause you don't love me like you used to,
Noticing a decline in the partner's affection.
And your "used to" is something I've grown used to.
Adapting to a changed dynamic in the relationship.
Something's wrong.
Reiterating the sense that something is not right.
Asked you out and you said "fine.",
Recalling a time when the partner was more available.
Now you've never got the time, I know something's wrong
Observing a shift in the partner's availability or priorities.
Something's wrong
Noting a change in the partner's responsiveness and attitude.
You would smile and answer "yes",
Highlighting a past positive behavior of the partner.
Now you always make me guess, I know something's wrong
Experiencing uncertainty and guessing due to the partner's changed behavior.
I can tell by the look in your eyes,
Perceiving dishonesty or deception in the partner's eyes.
There were times you've been feeding me lies,
Reflecting on past instances of being misled or lied to.
But I'd rather go on even if something's wrong than
Choosing to persevere despite the presence of issues.
Try to get along without your love, baby,
Reiterating the importance of the partner's love in the speaker's life.
Try to get along without your love
Expressing the challenge of coping without the partner's love.
Something's wrong each time I try to kiss you,
Experiencing difficulty in expressing physical affection.
I can see that soon I'm gonna miss you
Anticipating the future pain of missing the partner's love.
My baby
Endearment term for the partner.
Cause you don't love me like you used to,
Observing a decline in the partner's affection.
But I'd rather go on even if something's wrong than
Reiterating the choice to continue despite challenges.
I can't try to get along without your love, baby.
Expressing the difficulty of living without the partner's love.
Try to get along without your love, no no,
Repeating the challenge of coping without the partner's love.
Try to get along without your love, baby.
Reiterating the difficulty of living without the partner's love.
