Thinking Of You
Tesla Boy愀 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A heavy breathing I can hear
When midnight brings the smell of fear
A weeping soul is moving fast
It's waiting for the world collapse

And I'm falling
I'm falling in love with the feet
As I hear you run away
I'll follow
I'll follow your dance in the street
Until I find what you are looking for

My life can't be true
If I'm passing through
Only thing I do
Thinking of you

I'm flying in the light of moon
That's why I'm made of, I assume
I must regret I wish I could
Leave in your body exit wound

And I'm falling
I'm falling in love with the feet
As I hear you run away
I'll follow
I'll follow your dance in the street
Until I find what you are looking for

My life can't be true
If I'm passing through
Only thing I do
Thinking of you

Every time I'm going through
Am I hurting you?




Every time I'm going through
Baby, it's not true

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tesla Boy's song "Thinking of You" is an ode to infatuation and the desire to follow someone, even if it means losing oneself in the process. The song opens with the singer describing the sound of heavy breathing, signaling that he's searching for something, which is causing him to feel fear. He hears the soul of the person he admires weeping, and despite his apprehension, the singer is compelled to follow her to her destination, no matter what it takes.


The singer's passion leads him to claim that his life would be incomplete if he didn't have her in his thoughts. His words suggest that his obsession is all-encompassing, and he feels as though the person he loves is leading him somewhere. The singer is heedless of the consequences and expresses his willingness to follow the person, even if it leads him to an "exit wound." The final lines allude to the fact that the singer may be hurting the person with his unspoken emotions.


In summary, Tesla Boy's "Thinking of You" is a reflection of a person's unbridled passion and a willingness to follow their emotions, even if it leads to hurt or disappointment. The repeated refrain of "I'm falling" creates a sense of urgency and desire to give in to temptation, even when it goes against logic.

@@shantesummers5775 All prayers from Righteous SOULS aka Born again Christians, have power.
Sinners prayers GOD hears not.
Unless we REPENT and born again and LIVE HOLY, GOD hears none of our prayers.

Prayers have power, but these must come from Changed hearts.
Proverbs 15:29
The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
Psalms 119:155
“Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.”


(Many souls(unsaved souls), believe falsely and pray in vain).

Lyrics

Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed
You said move on, where do I go?
I guess second best is all I will know
'Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you (thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you
What you would do if you were the one
Who was spending the night (spending the night, spending the night)
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes (eyes)
You're like an Indian summer in the middle of winter
Like a hard candy with a surprise center
How do I get better once I've had the best
You said, there's tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test
He kissed my lips, I taste your mouth (I taste your mouth), oh
He pulled me in, I was disgusted with myself
'Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you (thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you
What you would do if you were the one
Who was spending the night (spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I
Was looking into your
The best
And yes, I do regret
How I could let myself let you go
Now, now the lesson's learned
I touched it, I was burned
Oh, I think you should know
'Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you (thinking of you, thinking of you) (oh)
Thinking of you (oh)
What you would do if you were the one
Who was spending the night (spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I
Was looking into your, your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Oh, won't you walk through
And bust in the door and take me away
Oh, no more mistakes
'Cause in your eyes, I'd like to stay, stay

I still believe this is the greatest song Katy has ever written

@wandson5410

Yes. And she wrote all lines by herself with no co-writers.

@kristenp1606

I don't listen to KP much, but this song is really special.

I miss the times when they told stories through these music videos instead of just putting completely random shit that makes no sense.
