I Don't Wanna Be Alone
Jesse McCartney Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That lies between you and me
Would break if you breathed on it
That's why Im treading so carefully
The view from your eyes
Is too different than mine
I should know finding
Is nothing but a waste of time
I do, but I don't
I should, but I won't
'Cause I don't want to be alone
Knock down my door before we run out of time
Break into my heart and rob me blind
Just leave the pieces scattered on the floor
Don't worry...
My heart's been broken before.
In Jesse McCartney's hit song "I Don't Wanna Be Alone," the singer expresses his fear of getting hurt again in a relationship. In the first verse, he talks about the fragile nature of their connection; he believes that something as simple as breathing could break the bond that they share. Hence, he is treading carefully so as not to damage what they have. In the second verse, Jesse acknowledges that the differences between them are vast, and he is struggling to reconcile them. He understands that, at times, it is pointless to try and detect the truth in a lie.
The chorus, "I do, but I don't, I should, but I won't" highlights the internal conflict that Jesse is facing. He knows that he likes the person, but he also knows that if he lets them in, it could end in heartbreak, which he desperately wants to avoid. Jesse is inviting them to knock down his door and break into his heart, but at the same time, he doesn't want to be the only one who is vulnerable. He then reassures them that he can handle a broken heart since it's something he's dealt with before. Ultimately, "I Don't Wanna Be Alone" is a song about taking a chance, being cautious, and the struggle that ensues when you find yourself falling for someone.
Line by Line Meaning
The common thread
The bond that connects us
That lies between you and me
That exists only between us
Would break if you breathed on it
Is so fragile that even your breath could break it
That's why Im treading so carefully
So I'm being cautious in my actions
The view from your eyes
Your perspective
Is too different than mine
Is vastly different from mine
I should know finding
I'm aware that discovering
The truth in a lie
The truth concealed within a lie
Is nothing but a waste of time
Is pointless
I do, but I don't
I have mixed feelings
I should, but I won't
I know I should, but I can't bring myself to do it
'Cause I don't want to be alone
Because I'm afraid of being lonely
Knock down my door before we run out of time
Come to me before it's too late
Break into my heart and rob me blind
Take everything I have
Just leave the pieces scattered on the floor
Just leave me broken
Don't worry...
It's okay
My heart's been broken before.
I'm used to heartbreak
