Too Much
BAILE & Camille Corazón Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do we even care what
What it is that either of us want?
Switch and stop the sorrow
Child as good as hollow
File my bad behavior at the top
Maybe I asked you for too much
Maybe I waited too long
Hang on silver wire
Crippling my desire
I can't seem to care what else you've got
We're the fire and water
Putting out the choir
Singing things that everybody wants
Maybe I asked you for too much
Maybe I waited too long
Go, let go x6
Catch you pressing freeze
Watch me on my knees
Play the simple, please
Can't believe this scene
It's hidden in the trees
What did we take from this, but fame?
Go, let go
Whatever happened to us?
The song "Too Much" by BAILE & Camille Corazón is a deeply contemplative and poignant lyrical representation of a dysfunctional relationship that has reached its breaking point. The opening lines of the song, "My love isn't your love/Do we even care what/What it is that either of us want?" highlights the apparent lack of understanding and communication between the two individuals involved in the relationship.
The singer then goes on to question their own behavior in the relationship, acknowledging how their actions could have contributed to the current situation. The line "Maybe I asked you for too much/Maybe I waited too long" communicates a sense of personal responsibility for the breakdown of the relationship. The repeated refrain of "Go, let go" seems to suggest a willingness to move on and let the relationship go for the greater good, despite the pain and difficulty involved.
Further into the song, the lyrics seem to take on a more desperate and emotional tone. The lines "Catch you pressing freeze/Watch me on my knees/Play the simple, please/Can't believe this scene" express a feeling of desperation and sadness, as the singer attempts to fight for the relationship, despite knowing that it might be futile. The final line of the song, "Whatever happened to us?" seems to encapsulate the singer's confusion and sadness at the disintegration of the relationship they once held dear.
