In my head
Party Favor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never said that I was done
Believing you'd come around
Been holding out, been holding out for ya
My head screams to let go
But these dreams are tangled up in you
Maybe I said too much
Am I a little too much?
If You're the waves I dive in 'til I hit the ocean floor
Is it a world worth dying fighting till im yours?
I wanna feel more than I imagine
Something gonna happen between us
Don't know what's real
Now I'm in the deep end, it's got me thinking
Was it all in my head?
Take in the high road
Before I knew which way to turn
Breaking what's already broke
Been holding on, still holding on to you
I shut out the echoes
To let in another piece of you
Maybe I care too much
Maybe a little too much
You are the waves I dive in 'til I hit the ocean floor
But what's a world worth fighting if I can't be yours?
I wanna feel more than I imagine
Something gonna happen between us
Don't know what's real
Now I'm in the deep end, it's got me thinking
Was it all in my head?
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
All in my head?
H-head, h-head, oh yeah
The lyrics of "In My Head" by Party Favor explores the theme of unrequited love and holding onto someone who may not feel the same way. The chorus of the song addresses the idea that the singer is willing to fight for the person they love, even if it means diving into the deep end and risking drowning. The song captures the feelings of uncertainty and vulnerability that come with these complex emotions.
The first verse suggests that the singer has been holding onto hope that the person they love will come back to them, indicating that they may have been broken up or separated in some way. The second verse implies that the singer is aware of the possibility that they care too much for the other person, but they still cannot let go. The lyrics evoke a sense of desperation and confusion, culminating in the repeated refrain of "Was it all in my head?" suggesting that perhaps the singer has been imagining a connection that was never really there.
Overall, "In My Head" by Party Favor conveys the intricate feelings and doubts that arise in unrequited love, and the struggles that come with letting go.
