Lyrics
Do you really want honesty
Expressing a desire for truthfulness
Well I don't know what you mean
Uncertain about the listener's intended meaning
My emotions all recklessly
Describing intense and uncontrolled emotions
Hopelessly aiming to please
Feeling futile in the pursuit of approval
Do you really want loyalty
Inquiring about the importance of loyalty
Or am I too close for you to bare
Questioning if the speaker is too emotionally close
I can never say what you want
Unable to articulate what the listener desires
Look up and give me those
Requesting a specific expression or action
Sorry eyes won't you stay tonight
Asking apologetic or regretful eyes to stay
Let me hold you tight
Expressing a desire for physical closeness
Like we never grew complacent
Desiring a return to a passionate, non-routine state
Like we never fell apart
Reflecting on a time when the relationship was strong
Well I remember melting into that couch outside your friend's house
Recalling a specific memory of intimacy
Reminiscing 'bout the vacant homes we turned to playgrounds
Nostalgic about transforming empty spaces into fun
With empty bag skimped from the start we turned the lights off
Utilizing limited resources for enjoyment
Feeling ourselves in the dark we get to lift off
Finding joy in the darkness, a metaphor for uncertainty
Sorry eyes won't you stay tonight
Repeated request for apologetic or regretful eyes to stay
Let me hold you tight
Reiterating the desire for physical closeness
Like we never grew complacent
Desiring a return to passionate, non-routine intimacy
Like we never fell apart
Reflecting on the past when the relationship was strong
Sorry eyes won't you stay tonight
Once again asking apologetic or regretful eyes to stay
Let me hold you tight
Expressing a persistent desire for physical closeness
Like we never grew complacent
Longing for a return to passionate, non-routine intimacy
Like we never fell apart
Reflecting on a time when the relationship was intact
