Wrong
Scala Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Closed door and empty room
You're out there
There's not much left that I can do
You're with her, she's charming
You're having fun
Like poison it kills me
I'm on the run
‘Cause it's wrong hiding my love for you
And it's wrong thinking it can't be true
That one day our lives will be like one
You and I
Still waiting for hours and you aint there
Feels cold empty, like you don't care
I'm leaving with memories and so much guilt
So stupid, I miss you
Please come back
‘Cause it's wrong hiding my love for you
And it's wrong thinking it can't be true
That one day our lives will be like one
You and I
‘Cause it's wrong hiding my love for you
And it's strong thinking it can't be true
That one day our lives will be like one
You and I
The song "Wrong" by Scala is about unrequited love and the struggle of trying to hide it. The singer is waiting in a closed door and empty room, feeling powerless because the person she loves is out there with someone else, having fun. The singer compares her feelings to poison that kills her, and admits that she is on the run. She knows that it's wrong to hide her love and to think that it can't be true, but she still hopes that one day their lives will be like one.
The second verse shows the singer still waiting, but this time it feels like the person she loves doesn't care about her. She leaves with memories and guilt, missing the person and hoping they will come back to her. The chorus repeats the idea that it's wrong to hide love and think it can't be true, but still holds out hope that one day they will be together.
The song captures the pain and struggle of unrequited love, and the conflict between what the heart feels and what the mind says. The singer knows it's wrong to hide her love and hopes that one day they can be together, but also admits that it may not happen.
