Take Me Apart
Unraveling Longing: Embrace and Break
Lyrics
Hey, thanks a lot for invading my life
Expressing gratitude for someone entering the speaker's life
With your sweet earth smell and those soulful eyes
Describing the person's appealing qualities: earthy smell and soulful eyes
That see into mine to where I hide
Noting the ability of the person to see through the speaker's defenses
Lost in space it gets lonely sometimes
Feeling isolated in the vastness of space, expressing loneliness
You crack me up, I’m starting to splinter
Feeling emotionally affected, becoming emotionally fragile
The mother ship is coming apart
Using a metaphor of a spaceship breaking apart to convey emotional turmoil
There’s been a malfunction, I need some attention
Acknowledging a problem in the relationship and seeking attention
Oh, please fix this clunk in my heart
Desiring emotional healing and asking for the partner's help
Now I know how much you really want to
Recognizing the partner's desires and expressing willingness
I want you but you hesitate, don’t you?
Pointing out the partner's hesitation in reciprocating feelings
Take me apart, dismantle my heart
Expressing vulnerability and a willingness to be emotionally exposed
Steal my love, see if I care
Indicating a readiness to let go of love, demonstrating emotional strength
Take me apart here in the dark
Suggesting a desire to be emotionally disassembled in the darkness
Kiss by kiss, finish what you start
Encouraging the partner to complete the emotional journey, kiss by kiss
Though I’ll never be the same, it’s okay, take me apart
Acceptance of the inevitable change in the speaker's emotional state
Hey, thanks a lot, I’m feeling better
Expressing improvement in emotional well-being
I feel like swimming ‘round the universe
Feeling liberated and expansive, using a metaphor of swimming in the universe
You inflate my soul, you got me going
Highlighting the partner's positive impact on the speaker's soul
Warp seventh heaven when you touch me there
Describing a euphoric experience when touched by the partner
Now I know how much you really want to
Reiterating the partner's desire and expressing the speaker's own desire
I want you but you hesitate, don’t you?
Noting the partner's hesitancy in reciprocating the speaker's feelings
Take me apart, dismantle my heart
Repeating the willingness to be emotionally dismantled for the partner
Steal my love, see if I care
Indicating a lack of concern if the partner takes away the speaker's love
Take me apart here in the dark
Expressing a desire to be emotionally taken apart in the dark
Kiss by kiss, finish what you start
Encouraging the partner to complete the emotional journey, kiss by kiss
Though I’ll never be the same, it’s okay, take me apart
Reiterating acceptance of the inevitable change in the speaker's emotional state
Take me apart, dismantle my heart
Repeating the willingness to be emotionally dismantled for the partner
Steal my love, see if I care
Indicating a lack of concern if the partner takes away the speaker's love
Take me apart here in the dark
Expressing a desire to be emotionally taken apart in the dark
Kiss by kiss, finish what you start
Encouraging the partner to complete the emotional journey, kiss by kiss
Though I’ll never be the same, it’s okay, take me apart
Reiterating acceptance of the inevitable change in the speaker's emotional state
