Craig Xen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me, why?
Why won't you look into my eyes forever?
Why would you tell me that we'd die together?
Why won't you look into my eyes
Whenever I'm talkin' to you? (Tell me, why?)
Why won't you look into my eyes forever?
Why would you tell me that we'd die together?
Why won't you look into my eyes

Whenever I'm talkin' to you? (Tell me, why?)

Why won't you look into my eyes forever?
Why would you tell me that we'd die together?
Why won't you look into my eyes
Whenever I'm talkin' to you? (Tell me, why?)
Why won't you look into my eyes forever?
Why would you tell me that we'd die together?
Why won't you look into my eyes
Whenever I'm talkin' to you? (Tell me, why?)
Why won't you look into my eyes forever?
Why would you tell me that we'd die together?
Why won't you look into my eyes
Whenever I'm talkin' to you? (Tell me, why?)
Why won't you look into my eyes forever?
Why would you tell me that we'd die together?

Why won't you look into my eyes
Whenever I'm talkin' to you? (Tell me, why?)

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, Craig Xen expresses his confusion and frustration with someone who refuses to make eye contact with him. By repeatedly asking the question "Why won't you look into my eyes forever?" he is pleading for a deeper emotional connection. Eye contact is often considered an intimate and essential form of connection, and by not looking into his eyes, the other person may be keeping an emotional distance.

The line "Why would you tell me that we'd die together?" suggests that the person may have made promises or declarations of loyalty, but their actions contradict those words. This inconsistency confuses Craig even more, as he wonders why they would say something so significant without actually demonstrating that level of commitment.

The repetition of the line "Whenever I'm talking to you" emphasizes his longing for eye contact during their conversations. It implies that their lack of eye contact is an ongoing issue and as he tries to communicate with them, their distant gaze leaves him feeling unheard and disconnected. He is yearning for a deeper level of engagement and emotional openness in their interactions.

Overall, Craig Xen's lyrics convey a sense of longing for a genuine emotional connection with someone who seems to be withholding that intimacy. He questions their motives and desires a deeper level of understanding and closeness. The repeated questioning of "Why won't you look into my eyes forever?" suggests a desperation to understand the reasons behind their avoidance and perhaps a hope for a resolution to their emotional disconnection.
