Alone In Love
SlowMotionNoise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Back and forth it goes
Emotions never stop
I always had this feeling
That I would stay on top

Then this girl I met
Well she changed everything
The way I looked at life
Forever in an upswing

For so long I
Never knew that I
Could ever care for someone
Right until the day I die

And the thing is
I don't wanna lie
It tears my heart up to see you close with another guy

Maybe I'm pathetic
I'll never know
Obsessed or in love
I'm on my own

Forced smiles
And misconceptions
Pretty eyes and princess hair
I know
This could mean nothing
Despite my faults
I will still care

I hope
You know I’ll love you
What happens next remains unclear
My world revolves around you
It keeps me sane when you are near

I’ve gone a lot of times
Filled up with self-doubt
It makes it difficult to hear
When life is calling out

Get lost in my own thoughts
Get lost in fantasies
Of what my life would be like
If you would just be with me

And it’s hard to
Imagine what I’m doing
With my own life when I
Get distracted by your beauty

Cuz in the end I
Just want your happiness
Whether with me or not
Just know you’re still my princess

Maybe I'm pathetic
I'll never know
Obsessed or in love
I'm on my own

Forced smiles
And misconceptions
Pretty eyes and princess hair
I know
This could mean nothing
Despite my faults
I will still care

I can’t help
How I feel
When you’re around it’s like my problems they all disappear
(Why is love so complicated, why can’t I decide)

Forced smiles
And misconceptions
Pretty eyes and princess hair
I know
This could mean nothing




Despite my faults
I will still care

My emotions and inner sentiments


When you’re around it’s like my problems they all disappear
Being in your presence alleviates my stress and issues


(Why is love so complicated, why can’t I decide)
(I question why romantic relationships are so complex and why I struggle to make choices regarding them)
