Six Billion Lyrics

Sometimes the cord likes to break
Sometimes the light tries to bend away
Sometimes we're thrown against the wall
Sometimes the world wants to see you crawl

And you can't decide if it's enough
You can't decide if it's enough
Six billion lives lookin' for love
You can't decide if it's enough

(Oh)

The end is the same for everyone
Should be enough for us to be as one
Watch me fall apart over you
Watch me fall apart tryin' to please you

And you can't decide if it's enough
You can't decide if it's enough
Six billion lives lookin' for love
And you can't decide if it's enough

And you can't decide if it's enough
And you can't decide if it's enough
Six billion lives lookin' for love
And you can't decide if it's enough

Watch me fall apart tryin' to please you
It's all I want to do
Watch me fall apart tryin' to please you
It's all I want to do

This song is a another beauty entirely. I haven't felt this from a song (or album) in a while. NBT is phenomenal.

My Opinion

It's exactly as it sounds through the lyrics.

It's a very somber song. It's a song about being unable to win over the love of someone that the singer wants the most in the whole world.

"And you can't decide if it's enough" highlights the helpless feeling the singer has towards encouraging his potential partner to be seen. "Watch me fall apart trying to please you" doubles down on this, evoking a very powerful image of someone who desperately wants to be loved by this other person.
