Intertwined again
Fingers through your hair
Head is on my chest
Every time you′d cum
I wonder where you've been
Wishing you would stay
Don′t go
You said that I might be the one
But when morning comes you're gone
Just tell me if I did you wrong
Don't keep leading me on
Harder you say that you love someone who tears at your heart
Who Knows
Who Knows
He doesn′t care for you much
Why can′t I give you enough
Who Knows
Who Knows
Bottles on the floor
One fight became a war
You don't understand
I die to see you more
Every time you leave
Choose him instead of me
You′re lying to yourself
Stay please
Just tell me if I did you wrong
Don't keep leading me on
Harder you say that you love someone who tears at your heart
Who Knows

He doesn′t care for you much
Why can't I give you enough

The song 'Who Knows' by James Maslow is a sad love song about a man who is in love with a woman that loves someone else. The lyrics convey a sense of desperation as the man pleads with the woman not to leave him after they've been intimate. He has strong feelings for her but feels unimportant as the woman continuously chooses someone else. Maslow sings, "Harder you say that you love someone who tears at your heart Who Knows Who Knows He doesn't care for you much Why can't I give you enough Who Knows Who Knows".
The lyrics suggest that the woman is stuck in a love triangle and struggling to figure out what to do. She keeps going back and forth between the two men in her life. As much as the man wants to be with her, he doesn't want to be used as a backup and is pleading with her not to leave him. The line "just tell me if I did you wrong, don't keep leading me on" emphasizes the man's feeling of being used in her love triangle.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of angst and desperation, and the longing feeling of wanting to be with someone who chooses someone else. It's a relatable feeling, making it a common theme in many love songs.

The real question is: who would ever cheat on James Maslow though? Exactly, no one. Unrealistic.
But really though.. this was so good! I listen to the album on repeat, just ready for a tour. 😝I’m so happy for you, James & what’s yet to come in your career. All the love.
@chryssychrys2621
Laura A. Gray idk there are some mean girls out there... and obviously someone did which upsets me because they hurt him this way I believe celebs use their music to tell us how they feel not all celebs do that but most are honest like James, Nick Jonas, and Demi Lovato. James know s that we support him no matter what and I would want him to know I got his back no matter what
@tyroniquejackson4759
