Crywolf feat. Ianborg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Burning in the cold
Tell me you're not coming home
And I'll stop waiting by the phone
Bedroom eyes
I asked you what you'd change
Tell me I'm not what you want
And I will leave you all alone
Will I see you from the ground?
Ooh...
Ooh...
Ooh...
Ooh...
The lyrics of Crywolf Ianborg's song "Bedroom Eyes" create a somber atmosphere through the use of metaphors and imagery, showcasing the pain and longing associated with unrequited love. The opening lines "Come down, love/Burning in the cold" reflect the singer's state of being; they are smitten with someone who is seemingly uninterested in them, and the contrast between the hot burning sensation of love and the coldness of rejection is emotionally taxing. The following lines "Tell me you're not coming home/And I'll stop waiting by the phone" depict the intense yearning for the object of their affection, even though they know it's a futile hope.
In the chorus, the lyrics "Bedroom eyes/I asked you what you'd change/Tell me I'm not what you want/And I will leave you all alone" suggest the singer's dwindling self-esteem and the blame they put on themselves for being rejected. The line, "Floating high and looking down/Will I see you from the ground?" is a nod to dissociation, a method of coping the singer has resorted to deal with the pain of unrequited love. Overall, the lyrics of "Bedroom Eyes" paint a vivid picture of the despair and loneliness that can be felt when love is not reciprocated.

You know how when you're dating someone and they show you a band or artist, and then ya'll break up & don't like it anymore because it reminds you of them? Well I think it was the complete opposite with me, I love crywolf even more now.
