Composure
Argonaut & Wasp Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got you on my shoulder, wherever I go
Wanna make sweet love like a slideshow
Turn around, cause you′re pretty and I like that
Can we get mad, mad, mad?

Don't matter if your composure
Is ever back the ground
′Cause lonely is better than broken
Can we sleep somehow?

Do you remember how we started?
We made sweet love, light hearted
Turn around, cause you're pretty and I like that
Can we get mad, mad, mad?

Don't matter if your composure
Is ever back the ground
′Cause lonely is better than broken
Can we sleep somehow?

Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?

Don′t matter if your composure
Is ever back the ground
'Cause lonely is better than broken
Can we sleep somehow?

Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?




Can we sleep somehow?
Can we sleep somehow?

The line "Wanna make sweet love like a slideshow" implies that the singer is longing for the passion and excitement of a new relationship, which they may no longer have with their current partner.


The repetition of the line "Can we sleep somehow?" could have multiple meanings. It could be a literal plea for intimacy with their partner, or it could be a metaphor for finding peace and resolution in the relationship. The singer seems torn between their desire for connection and their fear of being hurt. The line "Lonely is better than broken" highlights this conflict - they would rather be alone than stay in a relationship that is causing them pain.


Overall, the lyrics to "Composure" express the complexities of a failing relationship and the internal conflict that comes with trying to hold on or let go.
