Ugh, it's haunting how much I'm currently connecting to this song right now. To me, this transcends a "breakup" song. For me, there's sort of an admission that there's no future in the pairing for the long term at the beginning of the song, but there's a comfort in having that common ground of heartbreak. I've often observed in a breakup, that one of the partners no longer feels the same for the other, even though that partner's view remains the same. There's a disconnect. With this relationship, putting it bluntly, I feel that there's a satisfaction gained from the karma the other partner ends up experiencing with a similar heartbreak. Not from a vengeful perspective, but because there's mutual understanding how one another is feeling, and ideally, there's a possibility that each can be there for the other to heal. In part, it's why it's so hard, if not impossible to end it. And neither side wants to. May not make sense to everyone... but that's how I see it. |

The lyrics express compatibility between to potential lovers. It obviously goes much further than friendship; one can pick that up with tone of the words combined with the hopeful, blissful tune. Saying "Don't fall.. in love me" is redundant, as it's inevitable. And who cares? Even if chaos is imminent (and nothing's for sure), it's worth it to live for the now. With this person. I'm going through the exactly this right now- and it's wonderful. :) |
