Inertia
Love's Deceptive Descent: Unraveling the Emotions in 'Inertia'
Lyrics
If I was falling for another
If the speaker were falling in love with someone else
If I was falling for you now
If the speaker were currently falling in love with the listener
And if I descend without desire
Expressing a hypothetical situation of descending without any particular wish or passion
I'd say the words that break my fall
The speaker would express words that act as a safety net or support during the fall
And if I was falling somehow
Implies a situation of falling without being rescued before reaching the ground
And not caught before the ground
If not saved in time before hitting the ground
Cause you love it intently
Describing the intensity of someone's love
Doesn't mean that you'll get it right
Loving intensely doesn't guarantee making the right decisions
Cause you love it intently
Reiterating the intensity of love, which doesn't guarantee finding the right path
Doesn't mean that you'll find
Intense love doesn't ensure success or reaching the desired outcome
If I was lying for another
Contemplating the idea of lying or being untruthful for someone else
If I was lying next to you
Considering the act of lying while being physically close to the listener
And if I lost all faith in emotion
Imagining a loss of faith in emotion
I'd stay here till the sea arrives
Committing to stay despite emotional turmoil until the metaphorical sea arrives
And if I was lying listless
Being untruthful or deceptive while feeling without purpose or energy
With this thought before I drown
Experiencing contemplation or hesitation before succumbing to a drowning feeling
Cause you love it intently
Emphasizing the intensity of love, which may not lead to correct decisions
Doesn't mean that you'll get it right
Loving intensely doesn't guarantee making the right decisions
Cause you love it intently
Intense love doesn't assure the ability to soar or achieve great heights
Doesn't mean that you'll fly
Emphasizing that loving intensely doesn't ensure the ability to fly
Cause your fighting it cleanly
Fighting a clean or fair battle in love doesn't guarantee winning
Doesn't mean that you'll win the fight
Emphasizing that fighting cleanly doesn't ensure victory in the battle of love
Cause you love it intently
Loving intensely doesn't guarantee emerging victorious in the challenges of love
Doesn't mean that you'll win
Intense love doesn't assure winning in the face of challenges
And if I was lying listless
Repetition of the idea of lying listlessly with thoughts before drowning
With this thought before I drown
Repetition of the feeling of lying listlessly with thoughts before drowning
Cause you love it intently
Emphasizing the intensity of love, which may not lead to correct decisions
Doesn't mean that you'll get it right
Loving intensely doesn't guarantee making the right decisions
Cause you love it intently
Intense love doesn't assure the ability to soar or achieve great heights
Doesn't mean that you'll fly
Emphasizing that loving intensely doesn't ensure the ability to fly
Cause your fighting it cleanly
Fighting a clean or fair battle in love doesn't guarantee winning
Doesn't mean that you'll win the fight
Emphasizing that fighting cleanly doesn't ensure victory in the battle of love
Cause you love it intently
Loving intensely doesn't guarantee emerging victorious in the challenges of love
Doesn't mean that you'll fight
Emphasizing that loving intensely doesn't ensure success in a love-related struggle
If I was falling for another
Reiteration of the hypothetical situation of falling for someone else
If I was falling for you now
Reiteration of the hypothetical situation of falling for the listener
And if I was lying for another
Contemplating the idea of lying or being untruthful for someone else
If I was falling for you now
Reiteration of the hypothetical situation of falling for the listener
