Crazy Love
R. City (Rock City) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Crazy love

If I tell you then will you explain
If I tell you then will you listen
To a bitter taste

If I tell you then will you pretend
I still try to forget
If I die without saying I exist

Chorus:
I cannot hide so I try to rewind this
Crazy love of mine
I fight in the spotlight
And it's bright..do I hide it
Way down in this cold night

Well I know I'd be playing
The subtleties have gone away
If I could make you understand then
Apologies wouldn't change things

Chorus:
I cannot hide so I try to rewind this
Crazy love of mine
I fight in the spotlight
And it's bright..do I hide it
Way down in this cold night

Out in the trees and what's left
Of this ending me
I've been awake
And I've been in your dreams
When I can feel that your mine




But you're drifting away
In a town in the lake of your shining face

Line by Line Meaning

If I tell you then will you explain
If I share my feelings with you, will you help me understand them?


If I tell you then will you listen
If I open up to you, will you truly hear what I have to say?


To a bitter taste
To the pain and resentment I feel about this situation


If I tell you then will you pretend
If I confess my feelings, will you act like everything is fine and ignore the problem?


I still try to forget
I struggle to move on from how I feel


If I die without saying I exist
If I don't express my emotions, will anyone even know that I existed?


Chorus:
Refrain that repeats throughout the song


I cannot hide so I try to rewind this
I can't keep hiding how I feel, so I'm trying to go back and fix things


Crazy love of mine
The intense and complicated love that I feel


I fight in the spotlight
I struggle with my emotions in front of others


And it's bright..do I hide it
The public attention makes it hard to conceal my feelings


Way down in this cold night
I feel isolated and alone in my emotional struggles


Well I know I'd be playing
I understand that I'm putting on a facade


The subtleties have gone away
The nuance in our relationship has disappeared, leaving only intense emotions


If I could make you understand then
If only you could see things from my perspective


Apologies wouldn't change things
Even if I apologize, the fundamental issue won't go away


Out in the trees and what's left
Alone among nature and remnants of the past


Of this ending me
Of myself, which is coming to an end because of this situation


I've been awake
I've been acutely aware of my emotions


And I've been in your dreams
I'm still a part of your thoughts, even if we're not together


When I can feel that your mine
When I sense that we belong together


But you're drifting away
But our connection is slipping away


In a town in the lake of your shining face
In your presence, which holds such promise and beauty, but is also distant and ever-changing
