The Missing Piece
Costa & Veronica K Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Keep going back to where we've been before
Hanging on to your every word
Never tired of the game
Never getting bored
Hopes and fear
Desires and needsHow vulnerable can I be
How much can I reveal
And it's like time stood still
But I can't make a move
So I let my heart conceal
The missing piece
Is it me or is it you?
The one that never tells
The one who's never true
The missing component
Is it me or is it you?
Forever lost in doubt
And never ever true
The missing piece
in Costa & Veronica K's song "The Missing Piece" explores the complexities of relationships and how one person can feel like they are giving more than the other. The lyrics describe a situation where one partner is always the one who loves a little more and keeps going back to where they have been before. Despite this, they continue to hang on to every word, never getting bored, and never tired of the game. The vulnerability of the situation is highlighted in the phrase "how vulnerable can I be, how much can I reveal?" The songwriter questions if it is worth it to reveal their true feelings when they are not sure if the other person will reciprocate.
The chorus of the song is where the message becomes poignant. The missing piece may refer to a part of the relationship that is incomplete, something the songwriter cannot quite grasp. They question whether it is them or their partner that is missing the piece that completes the puzzle. The sense of doubt is further emphasized with "Forever lost in doubt and never ever true." It is a powerful reminder that sometimes it is easier to continue playing the game, even if we know that something is missing.
