Not Human
ionnalee Lyrics

I saw you there at night
The persona saw someone somewhere in the dark.

Your shape appeared in the distance
The person saw someone but couldn't recognize them initially because they were a bit far away.

Your face distorted in the light
When the person saw the stranger in better light, they noticed that their face was slightly different from what they had seen previously.

And out of breath, I closely listened
The persona was out of breath from running and listened very carefully to what the stranger had to say.

Your hungry eyes glow with fire
The stranger looked with a passionate and intense gaze.

And light up my humid hollow
The stranger's eyes lit up the persona's deepest desires and passions.

Just like me, the treacherous kind
The persona sees themselves as deceitful and wicked just like the stranger.

The warning's spelling out your name
There are warning signs and the persona knows the stranger's name but still proceeds.

The winds are shifting, are you in?
The situation is changing and the persona is asking the stranger if they are prepared or willing to go through with it.

Oh, oh! You make my waters flow
The stranger excites and arouses the persona's emotions and desires.

Now look how tall I grow
The persona has grown and developed since meeting the stranger.

I'm not human
The persona feels more like an animal or a creature than a human being while around the stranger.

With you it's magical
Being around the stranger feels like magic to the persona.

The urge is animal
The persona feels instinctual and primal urges while around the stranger.

I felt you take a bite
The persona thinks that the stranger has bitten them, which may be metaphorical.

Your calming voice silently whispered
The stranger's voice is gentle and soothing.

How do you see your life in time?
The stranger is asking the persona about their future plans and goals.

And is it worth all of these blisters?
The stranger is questioning if the persona's efforts and struggles are worth it in the end.

These broken limbs are worn and tired
The persona is exhausted and damaged, physically or emotionally.

But our words are not yet written
There is still hope for the future of their relationship or situation.

Our ember still burning inside
Their passion or emotions still burns strongly despite any difficulties or hardships they may face.

Are you ready to begin?
The stranger is asking the persona if they are ready to start something new.

Morning will put out this flame
The fire or passion they feel may die out quickly like a flame extinguished by morning light.
