What's Wrong

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are you good?
What’s wrong?
Are you okay?
I keep hoping it’s nothing and you still feel something
I’ve been open with my love
Oh, don’t shoot babe
But sometimes I stay inside and fall asleep in the light
I’m alright as long as I stay upright so I don’t feel my head fight a war that it will lose
Will you stay awake all night
Unsay it all for show
If we fade away, alright
I’ll stay even if you don’t
But sometimes I stay inside and fall asleep in the light
At midnight I wake up so confused
I’m alright as long as I stay upright so I don’t feel my head fight a war that it will lose
What’s wrong? (Will you say it?)
Are you good? (‘Cause I can't take it if you do)
What’s wrong? (We can fake it)
Are you okay? ('Cause I won’t make it without you)
I keep hoping it’s nothing and you still feel something
I’ve been open with my love
Oh, don’t shoot babe (I haven’t grown)
Will you stay awake all night
Unsay it all for show
If we fade away, alright
I’ll stay even if you don’t
‘Cause sometimes I sit in silence
Tongue-tied, I hold my eyelids
One night could end all of this pain
The lyrics of the song "What's Wrong" by Angus Maude revolve around the theme of uncertainty and anxiety in a relationship. The singer is asking their partner repeatedly "What's wrong?" and "Are you okay?" because they can sense that something is off but the partner is not opening up about it. They are hoping that everything is okay and trying to show their affection openly, but the partner's inability to communicate is causing them distress.
The singer admits that sometimes they stay inside and fall asleep in the light, which could be interpreted as a metaphor for avoiding confronting their fears or problems. At midnight, they wake up confused, indicating that they are struggling with their emotions and thoughts. Despite feeling overwhelmed, they try to stay upright and not let their head fight a war that it will lose. They ask their partner to stay awake with them all night and unsay all the things that are causing the tension between them. They even offer to stay even if the partner decides to leave, emphasizing that their love is unconditional.
Overall, the song depicts the challenges that can arise when communication and honesty are lacking in a relationship. It shows the importance of being open and vulnerable with your partner to avoid misunderstandings and conflicts.
