Only One
White Noise and Silence Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m not into it, until it’s intimate
It’s not personal until it’s physical
I’m not into it, It’s not intimate
It’s not intimate
It’s not intimate
Oh, it’s not intimate
Nothing felt legit
Took you a minute
For me it didn’t
Still empty handed
But you got millions
And your fulfillment is unrequited
I miss our innocent kisses
I miss our innocent kisses
I can’t go outside
Without you
So I gotta day in Osaka
Matcha do about nothing
While you’re inside I’m lost
Oh, caught the sun but it froze inside our bed
I should go outside
Without you
I should go outside
Without you
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
Someone tell me now
It’s not personal until it’s physical
I’m not into it until it’s intimate
So I gotta day in Osaka
Matcha do about nothing
While you’re inside I’m lost
Oh, caught the sun but it froze inside our bed
So I gotta day in Osaka
Matcha do about nothing
While you’re inside I’m lost
Oh, caught the sun but it froze inside our bed
It’s not personal until it’s physical
I’m not into it until it’s intimate
It’s not personal until it’s physical
I’m not into it
Only one, only one, only one please
Searching for an only one but you can’t see
Covers up covers up over your head
Lovers up and at ‘em, but your stuck in his bed
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Wishing it could’ve been permanent
Only one, only one, only one please
Searching for an only one but you can’t see
Only one, only one, only one please
Searching for an only one but you can’t see
The song "Only One" by White Noise and Silence explores the complex nature of physical intimacy and emotional attachment. The opening lines of the chorus, "It's not personal until it's physical, I'm not into it until it's intimate," suggest that the singer may be hesitant to engage in physical relationships without a strong emotional connection. However, as the song progresses, the lyrics reveal a sense of confusion and disillusionment with the concepts of intimacy and fulfillment, as the singer struggles to find meaning or lasting connections in their sexual encounters.
The chorus also touches on the idea of longing and the search for a meaningful romantic partner, with the repeated refrain of "Only one, only one, only one please. Searching for an only one but you can't see." The singer seems to be searching for something more than just physical pleasure, but they find themselves trapped in a cycle of short-term, unfulfilling relationships.
Overall, "Only One" is a commentary on the modern dating culture, where hook-ups and short-term relationships have become the norm. The song highlights the emotional toll that this can take, as people struggle to find fulfillment and connection amidst the noise and chaos of modern life.
