I wait for them to interrupt

drinking from my broken cup

And

True love they've been without it

Du même artiste :

Cette chanson évoque un désir profond et inextinguible pour une personne, malgré les obstacles et les jugements extérieurs. Le narrateur se sent tiraillé entre l’envie de l'embrasser et les voix de la raison qui lui conseillent de s’éloigner. Il parle de figures solitaires et de déceptions amoureuses, soulignant la complexité des relations humaines et le poids des attentes familiales. Dans un contexte où la société semble alourdie par des désillusions, le protagoniste continue de désirer ardemment cette connexion, comme un phare dans la nuit. Les références à des personnages et à des situations symboliques renforcent ce sentiment de quête, où le besoin d'amour se heurte à la réalité du monde qui l'entoure.
