If I
An Island Called A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
We both know how
Too many paces
Too many familiar faces
I can't see right now
I can't speak
I can barely breathe
I'm not sure how to move on
But I don't ever want to go further away than what we were
I don't know how we could be anything more than in between
I can barely breathe
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
(Who'll catch me)
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
All stressed out, but I remember how they said "don't be afraid",
Manipulate
All the choices
All the familiar voices
Saying what to do
Now I'm breaking through
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
(Who'll catch me)
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
Uh ah
Uh ah
If I... If I... If I... If I...
If I, If I, If I, If I...
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
(Who'll catch me)
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
If I crack, will I break?
If it's seen, thrown away?
If I fall, who'll catch me then?
(Who'll catch me)
Down the windowpane, once again
Blood consumes the heir
Ooh yeah...
Ooh yeah!
The lyrics of "If I" by An Island Called A delve into themes of internal conflict, uncertainty, and vulnerability. The singer acknowledges the presence of truths and lies in their life, but at the moment, they are willing to accept a temporary deception to cope with the overwhelming emotions they are experiencing. This could reflect a desire to escape from reality or to temporarily shield themselves from harsh truths.
The repeated lines "If I crack, will I break?" convey a sense of fragility and fear of reaching a breaking point. The singer questions what will happen if their facade is exposed or if they allow themselves to fall apart. The imagery of blood consuming the heir suggests a sense of heritage or lineage being tarnished or overwhelmed by internal struggles and doubts.
The mention of being "all stressed out" and the encouragement to not be afraid could represent the conflicting messages and pressures the singer is facing from external sources. They mention breaking through, possibly indicating a moment of personal clarity or empowerment amidst the chaos and conflicting voices surrounding them.
The repetition of the questions throughout the song, as well as the refrain "If I...", highlights the inner turmoil and uncertainty the singer is grappling with. The unresolved nature of these questions reflects a sense of ongoing introspection and soul-searching, as well as a desire for reassurance or support in times of vulnerability.
Overall, "If I" captures a raw and introspective journey through inner conflicts, fears of vulnerability, and the search for stability and support amidst uncertainty. The repeated questioning and powerful imagery create a poignant and emotionally charged atmosphere that resonates with the listener's own experiences of grappling with self-doubt and the complexities of navigating personal struggles.
