Those walks in the rain
They carried me
Through loss and pain
When my heart stood still for the first time
And I cried out to feel it again
No one would answer me
And it’s an emergency
Give it give it give it time
I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
Yeah I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
I’ll act like I’m over you
Then lay under someone who
Looks like and
Talks like you
But she’ll never tell me the truth
Her words are just pretty
Oh darling what did I lose
When my heart stood still for the first time
And I cried out to feel it again
No one would answer me
And it’s an emergency
I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
Yeah I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
When my heart stood still for the first time
And I cried out to feel it again
No one would answer me
And it’s an emergency
In the song "Emergency" by Shawn Desman, the lyrics express the feelings of heartbreak and rejection after being told no by the person he loves. The singer compares his feelings to a free fall without a parachute, expressing the fear and hopelessness he experiences. Even though the person has apologized, the singer still struggles to comprehend and move past their crush on them. He questions why the person did not let him in and wonders how long he will continue to repeat these thoughts in his head.
The lyrics also touch on the desperation that comes with unrequited love, as the singer claims to be "miserable in love" and in need of immediate attention ("this is an emergency"). Despite his attempts to show his feelings and make the person smile, it seems that nothing he does can change their mind or bring them closer together. In the end, the singer is left feeling lost and defeated, reflecting on the impact this rejection has had on his life.
