Can You Feel It
TheSmartLocal Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The waves come crashing in
Can you see it?
It's not what it seems to be
This feeling taking a toll on me
I'm drowning in this uncertainty
A reflection that I used to know
Who can tell what's reality
All I wish is for us to be
I feel my heart beating
I'm taking it slow
To see my tears falling
I'm losing control
I feel my mind sinking
I'm all on my own
To feel my heart
Can you feel it?
The waves come crashing in
Yeahh
Can you see it?
Its not what it seems to be
This feeling taking a toll on me
I'm drowning in this uncertainty
All I want is for you to be
A reflection that I used to know
Who can tell what's reality
All I wish is for us to be
Yeahh
I feel my heart beating
I'm taking it slow
To see my tears falling
I'm losing control
I feel my mind sinking
I'm all on my own
To feel my heart, heart
This feeling
Huuuuu
I feel my heart beating
I'm taking it slow
To see my tears falling
I'm losing control
I feel my heart beating
I'm taking it slow
To see my tears falling
I'm losing control
I feel my mind sinking
I'm all on my own
To feel my heart
Can you feel it
The lyrics to TheSmartLocal's song "Can You Feel It" touch on themes of uncertainty, introspection, and the desire for a relationship to return to a more stable and familiar state. The opening lines, "Can you feel it? The waves come crashing in," suggest a sort of overwhelming and unpredictable turbulence that the singer is experiencing. The following line, "Can you see it? It's not what it seems to be," adds to the sense of confusion and uncertainty, as though the singer is struggling to understand their own emotions and the situation they find themselves in.
The chorus, "This feeling taking a toll on me, I'm drowning in this uncertainty," reinforces this idea of being overwhelmed and unsure. The singer longs for their partner to be "a reflection that I used to know," suggesting that they miss the stability and familiarity of the relationship they once had. However, the lines "Who can tell what's reality? All I wish is for us to be" acknowledge that things may not be able to return to the way they were, and that the singer is grappling with accepting this uncertain reality.
The repetition of "I feel my heart beating, I'm taking it slow" throughout the song emphasizes the internal struggle the singer is experiencing as they try to navigate their emotions. The final line, "Can you feel it?" can be interpreted as a plea for empathy and understanding from the listener.
