Living Proof
Unveiling Love's Dilemma: Trapped Between Desire and Reality
Lyrics
Why does love have to?
Questioning the nature of love and its requirements.
Where does it go to
Wondering where love disappears to.
Outta my door?
Expressing a sense of love leaving or ending.
How much have you got?
Pondering the amount of love available.
Is it enough for me
Questioning if the available love is sufficient.
Or will I want more?
Considering the possibility of wanting more love.
Oh,oh, you tell me you just want some fun.
Being told that someone desires only enjoyment.
Oh, oh, I'm trapped between the fire and the man with the gun.
Feeling caught between dangerous situations.
Time in a vacuum,
Experiencing a sense of time passing without direction.
Waiting for someone to say what they think.
Waiting for someone to express their true thoughts.
But all that pretending doesn't convince me
Not convinced by pretense, as people only seem interested in buying drinks.
'cause they just want to buy me a drink.
(Instrumental break; no specific lyrical content.)
Oh, oh, you tell me you want to be free.
Feeling trapped between difficult choices or situations.
Oh, oh, baby, I'm trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea.
Experiencing a dilemma akin to being caught between the devil and the deep blue sea.
It's night in the city,
Describing the nighttime in the city and a state of self-pity.
I'm filled with self-pity -
Expressing a negative emotional state.
I'm taking the air.
Taking a moment to breathe or contemplate.
If somebody hits me
Anticipating potential harm or confrontation.
Here in this city,
Indicating a lack of concern or apathy toward potential harm.
I swear I just don't care.
Expressing a lack of care or indifference.
Oh, oh, just looking for proof.
Searching for evidence or confirmation.
Oh, oh, I'm trapped like a cat on a hot tin roof.
Feeling trapped or cornered, like a cat on a hot tin roof.
Oh, oh, just looking for proof.
Continuing the search for proof.
Oh, oh, I'm trapped like a cat on a hot tin roof.
Reiterating the feeling of being trapped.
I got to have proof,
Emphasizing the need for concrete evidence or confirmation.
I got to have proof,
Repeating the insistence on having proof.
I got to have proof,
Reiterating the importance of having proof.
I got to have proof. (repeat)
Stressing the ongoing need for proof (repeated).
