Zeph Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
Could you love me though I don't deserve it
Could you love me like there's no one else
Even though you know I can't return it
Could you love me when the water's rough
Or when I leave you in a desert
Could you love me though I speak with knives
Knowing all too well that you'll get hurt
If you can't answer yes, just go
I'm more trouble than I'm worth
Could you love me while I hate myself
Because I don't know how this works
I never learned how this works
The lyrics in Zeph's song "Could you love me while I hate myself" depict a sense of vulnerability and self-doubt. The singer is questioning if their partner can love them despite their own self-hatred and undeservingness. They also express a fear of hurting their partner unintentionally, as they speak with knives, which suggests that their words can be sharp and pierce through emotions. However, the singer also recognizes that if their partner cannot answer yes to their question, they are more trouble than they are worth, which shows a level of self-awareness.
The overall theme of the lyrics is the struggle to love oneself and question if it affects the ability to be loved by others. This is a common feeling that many people experience and can relate to. The singer's vulnerability and honesty make the song even more resonating. It is important to note that the lyrics do not provide a clear answer, leaving room for interpretation and personal reflection.
