about

This song is about the vulnerability of showing up for romantic connection with someone, even though they may not be able to meet us how we want them too. It’s about allowing ourselves to fall in love with someone even though they’re a hot mess, simply because we are craving meaningful human connection.

lyrics

You say you’re in it for the long game
And that you like to move real slow
But I can’t unsee / And I know what I know

Babe you know it ain’t no lie
You know I’d lay down and die
Of happiness
If you say you’d stick around / If you say you’d stick around

But I don’t wanna be your rebound / I don’t wanna be your soothin’ balm
I don’t wanna be your band-aid / For everything that went wrong
So tell me are you shootin’ straight / When you’re linin’ up your aim
And when you look into my eyes / Are you just playin’ games?

You say it feels like things are movin’ too fast
You don’t think that you can keep up with that
Think what I’m sensin’ here / Is you know you can’t make it last

Honey who broke your heart?
A steel trap around your heart
A beautiful mess
Still I want you around / I want you around

But I don’t wanna be your rebound / I don’t wanna be your soothin’ balm
I don’t wanna be your band-aid / For everything that went wrong
So tell me are you shootin’ straight / When you’re linin’ up your aim
And when you look into my eyes / Are you just playin’ games?

And when you look into my eyes / Are you just playin’ games?
