Dangerous
Navigating Love's Risks: Triana Akila's 'Dangerous' Revelations
Lyrics
It’s dangerous
Expressing the risky nature of a situation or relationship
To fall in love with who we could be
Highlighting the danger of falling in love with the potential of someone, not their reality
It’s dangerous
Reiterating the precariousness of the situation
To remove myself from reality
Warning against distancing oneself from the real world
So dangerous
Emphasizing the high risk involved
To become what I said I’d never be again
Cautioning against reverting to a previous undesirable state
But take a look at me now
Reflecting on the current state despite the warnings
I’ve fallen for ya even though you’re not always here
Admitting to falling for someone despite their absence
I try and try to fight back the tears
Struggling to hold back tears caused by the pain inflicted
From the pain you don’t know that you caused me to feel
Pointing out the unawareness of the pain caused by the person
I did it again
Acknowledging a repeated mistake
I got addicted to your potential
Becoming addicted to the imagined potential of the person
Addicted to your potential
Reiterating the addiction to the person's potential
It’s dangerous
Repeating the danger of ignoring inner thoughts
When I ignore the voice in my head
Highlighting the risk of ignoring personal intuition
It’s dangerous
Stressing the danger of neglecting actions and relying on words
To ignore your works and go by what you’ve said
Warning against false beliefs in being treated differently
So dangerous
Re-emphasizing the high risk of the situation
To believe that you would treat me any differently
Realizing that the person remains unchanged despite expectations
But you’re the same guy you’ve always been
Admitting to falling for someone who is consistently absent
And I’ve fallen for ya even though you are never there
Expressing the unbearable pain felt in the current situation
The pain I feel right now is so hard to bear
Expressing disbelief at allowing the person to cause this pain
And I just can’t believe I let you do this to me
Repeating the acknowledgment of a repeated mistake
I did it again
Admitting to being addicted to the person's potential again
And again, oh oh oh oh
Repeating the cycle of addiction
I’ve fallen for ya (Fallen)
Acknowledging the repeated act of falling for the person
Even though you’re not always here (Even though you’re not always here)
Reiterating the challenge of the person's absence
I try and try to fight back the tears (Fight back the tears)
Continuing to struggle against the emotional impact
I’ve fallen for ya even though you are never there (You never were there)
Repeating the acknowledgment of falling for an absent person
The pain I feel right now is so hard to bear
Expressing the intensity of the current emotional pain
And I just can’t believe
Expressing disbelief at allowing the person to cause this pain once again
I let you do this to me
Repeating the acknowledgment of a repeated mistake
Did it again
Confirming the repetition of the addictive behavior
I got addicted to your potential
Reiterating the addiction to the person's potential
You fooled me once, you better think twice, don’t play with my heart
Warning against playing with emotions and urging caution
(Addicted to your potential)
Repeating the addiction to the person's potential
When the dust settles, and the smoke clears, I see who you are
Seeing the true nature of the person after the turmoil settles
(Got addicted to your potential)
Repeating the acknowledgment of addiction to potential
I’ve learned my lesson now I’ve got a new start
Declaring a learned lesson and a fresh start
Addicted to your potential
Reiterating the addiction to the person's potential
