Description
It all sounds like the evening after a lively party, when the lights have gone out but the music still resonates inside. The voice seems to embrace and pinch at the same time: it asks not to leave, but in the same phrase swears not to let such love hurt again. It's not pure sadness, but something closer to the warmth after a burn - when you already know it hurts, but you still reach for the fire.
The track is like a revelation to a quiet beat: an admission to yourself that enough is enough with the silence, enough with the waiting, enough with begging for attention. But there is still a small hope that someone will hear, stop, and this time stay close.
Lyrics and translation
Original
I'm in deep enough to drown in.
And I'm calling, but you don't move a fingertip.
Only throw a bone to keep me around. And I'm missing you, but is that allowed?
I could let you go if you tell me how. Is it safe to say that it's over now?
I don't wanna beg you not to go.
Don't go.
I shouldn't have to pray for you to show.
Oh, no.
'Cause I promised to my mama that I'd never let another man love me like that, love me, love me like that.
I'm crying in the corner and I swear over and over 'cause I love you like that, love you, love you like that.
I won't whimper an apology.
'Cause I know it's just how you're built to be.
Only throw a bone to keep me around. And I'm missing you, but is that allowed?
I could let you go if you tell me how. Is it safe to say that it's over now?
I don't wanna beg you not to go.
Don't go.
I shouldn't have to pray for you to show.
Oh, no.
'Cause I promised to my mama that I'd never let another man love me like that, love me, love me like that.
I'm crying in the corner and I swear over and over 'cause I love you like that, love you, love you like that.
I don't wanna beg you not to go.
Don't go.
I shouldn't have to pray for you to show.
Oh, no.
'Cause I promised to my mama that I'd never let another man love me like that, love me, love me like that.
I'm crying in the corner and I swear over and over 'cause I love you like that, love you, love you like that.
