Problems
E-Rotic Lyrics

I don't (know, know)
The singer is unsure about something.

I, I'm growing numb to being put on the side
The singer feels neglected and ignored.

You used to sit me up so high up on your shoulders
The singer used to feel special and important to the listener.

Those days are over, why?
The artist is confused about why things have changed.

You, you are a force of nature, just like the moon!
The listener has a powerful influence over the artist.

You got a hold on me, it's pulling me tighter
The listener's influence over the singer is becoming stronger.

Bringing me closer to you
The listener's influence is bringing the singer closer to them.

I just wanna know what it's like
The artist is curious about something.

Looking at the world through your bright eyes
The artist wants to experience the world from the listener's perspective.

Tell me how it is from inside
The artist wants the listener to explain their perspective.

Like your mind is my mind
The singer wants to understand the listener on a deeper level.

Baby, baby, you've been so silent to me lately, lately
The artist is frustrated with the listener's lack of communication.

It's like you disappeared, the night's so cold
The singer feels alone and abandoned by the listener.

Can't miss the last train home
The singer needs to leave soon.

Problems, problems
The singer acknowledges that everyone has problems.

I know that everybody's got'em, got'em
The artist understands that problems are a normal part of life.

But let's not do this here, the night's so cold
The artist doesn't want to discuss problems in the current situation.

Yeah, yeah, you're a problem child, yeah
The listener is difficult to deal with.

I can spot you for miles
The singer can recognize the listener's behavior from far away.

If it ain't about this, then it's that
The listener is always finding something to complain or worry about.

I can see your heart fade through your smile
The artist can see that the listener is unhappy despite trying to hide it.

And I know that the truth can't fix that
The artist understands that the listener's problems can't be solved easily.

And the holes in your clothes don't expose you
The singer sees past the listener's appearance to their true self.

And I know that the picture your friend isn't in
The artist knows that the listener's life isn't perfect despite appearances.

When you're crying on my shoulder
The listener has opened up to the singer and is seeking comfort.

He just want a reason to fight over
The listener is looking for something to argue about.

But you on my side
The singer feels supported by the listener.

You don't even notice any picture-perfect moment
The listener is not aware of the good things in their life.

When you're lost up in your nothing
The listener is stuck in a negative mindset.

Just gone for days
The listener has disappeared or is unresponsive for an extended period of time.

So, here's a turn toast hoping
The singer is hopeful for change or improvement in the situation.

Prayer for you to notice
The artist hopes that the listener will become more aware of their behavior.

Oh, can you meet me halfway?
The artist wants to compromise and work together with the listener.
