SOS
Rihanna Lyrics

La la la, la la la, la la la la la, oh
The singer is overcome with emotion and has nothing else to say but to sing meaningless sounds.

You know I've never felt like this before
In all her experience, the singer has not encountered a feeling as intense as this before.

This feels like so unreal
The singer is overwhelmed and incredulous about the intensity of her feelings.

I'm obsessive when just one thought of you comes up
The singer becomes single-mindedly fixated on thoughts of the person she loves.

And I'm aggressive just one thought of closing up
As her attachment to the person intensifies, the singer becomes more protective and defensive.

You got me stressing, incessantly pressing the issue
The constant thoughts about the person she loves are causing the singer to become anxious and desperate to find a resolution to their relationship.

'Cause every moment gone you know I miss you
The singer feels the impact of every moment she cannot spend with the person she loves.

I'm the question, and you're of course the answer
The singer is seeking answers from the person she loves, who holds the keys to her anxieties and emotional state.

Just hold me close, boy, 'cause I'm your tiny dancer
The singer is seeking comfort from the person she loves, by asking for physical intimacy.

You make me shaken up, never mistaken
The person the singer loves is someone who affects her intensely at all times.

But I can't control myself, got me calling out for help
The singer is overwhelmed and cannot deal with her emotions on her own, she is seeking help and comfort.

S.O.S., please someone help me
The singer is calling for help in dealing with her intense emotional state.

It's not healthy for me to feel this
The singer is aware that her emotional state is not healthy for her well-being.

Y.O.U. are making this hard
The person the singer loves is the source of her emotional state, making things difficult for her.

I can't take it, see it don't feel right
The intensity of the singer's emotional state feels too overwhelming, and it does not feel right to her at all.

You got me tossin' and turnin', can't sleep at night
The singer's emotional state is affecting her to the point where she cannot sleep properly anymore.

This time, please someone come and rescue me
The singer is desperately seeking a way out of her current emotional state.

'Cause you on my mind, it's got me losing it
The person the singer loves is constantly on her mind, pushing her towards an emotional breaking point.

I'm lost, you got me lookin' for the rest of me
The singer feels as if she has lost herself in her intense emotional state, and is searching for her identity again.

Love is testing me, but still I'm losing it
The singer is struggling to cope with the intense emotional demands that come with falling in love.

Boy, you know you got me feeling open
The singer is admitting to her beloved that he has made her feel vulnerable and open in her emotional state.

And, boy, your love's enough with words unspoken
The singer is conveying that with the person she loves, words are not necessarily needed, and his love alone helps her deal with her emotional state.

You got me tossin' and turnin', I can't sleep at night
The intensity of the singer's emotional state is hindering her ability to get a good night's sleep.

Oh oh, la la la, la la la, la la, oh oh
The singer is feeling overwhelmed with her emotions once again and expresses it through her singing.
