Drive Me Crazy
Dani Shay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I have been fighting off this feeling for way too long
So, you've got the key, all you have to do is turn me on
So you can drive me crazy
Let's take a drive tonight
And watch the sun rise
And even in the daylight I can see the moon shining in your eyes
Because you drivin' me crazy
I have a question: do you think we can take it slow?
Because I take my time to learn the things that I don't know
So teacher, teacher, tell me when it's my turn to go
So I can drive you crazy
Oh, I gonna drive you crazy
I dont know where we are going and I really don't care
All I know is I'll be happy as long as you there
And I am aware that we are the most ridiculous pair
And we don't care
No, we don't care
Because we drive each other crazy
Oh, we're mad
Crazy...
The lyrics to Dani Shay's song Drive Me Crazy speak to a sense of longing and passion that the singer can't help but feel despite knowing that it's wrong. The metaphor of driving - with the key that can turn on the singer's emotions, and the actual act of driving at night and stepping on the gas and brakes at the same time - reinforces this idea of being consumed by this intense feeling that is both exhilarating and dangerous.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea of taking things slow and learning from a teacher figure, suggesting that the singer is aware of the potential risks involved in pursuing this feeling and wants to do it in a way that is careful and intentional. However, the sense of urgency and desire in the repeated refrain of "drive me crazy" suggests that this feeling is too intense to resist.
Overall, the lyrics of Drive Me Crazy convey a sense of recklessness and passion that is both thrilling and potentially dangerous, reinforcing the idea that sometimes we can't help but be consumed by our desires even when we know they might lead us astray.
