[Part I]

[Intro]
The brief introduction sets the tone for the song, emphasizing the singer’s reluctance or inability to engage in a romantic relationship.

[Verse]
The verse describes the singer’s experiences and perceptions, metaphorically suggesting a feeling of detachment (“outside of my body”) while observing the desired person. Despite recognizing their desire for her, she expresses a longing to be the object of their affection.

[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus reflects the singer’s cautiousness and apprehension about expressing her feelings. She hopes her emotions will dissipate, possibly to avoid the potential pain or complications of falling in love.

[Chorus]
The chorus bluntly declares the singer’s inability to fall in love with the person despite her intense desire to do so. It encapsulates the central conflict of the song – the struggle between longing and self-preservation.

[Part II]

[Intro]
The introductory sounds set a dreamy and contemplative atmosphere, suggesting a transition into a deeper exploration of the singer’s emotions.

[Chorus]
The chorus reflects the singer’s feeling of suffocation (“don’t need to breathe”) in the presence of the person she desires. She acknowledges a sense of confusion and instability in her emotions, unable to find solid ground (“can’t land on my feet”).

[Verse]
The verse delves into the perceived flaws and insecurities of the person of interest (“paranoid,” “paralyzed”). Despite these flaws, the singer finds a sense of acceptance, even romanticizing the potential consequences of their connection.

[Chorus]
This extended chorus revisits the themes introduced earlier, emphasizing the singer’s recurring dreams and the bittersweet nature of love. The inclusion of French (“L’amour de ma vie” – The love of my life) adds a poetic and romantic layer to the lyrics.

[Spoken Outro]
The outro is a raw and vulnerable moment where the singer expresses a desire for physical intimacy despite her reservations. She acknowledges her lack of understanding of her own emotions and the intensity of her feelings for the person addressed.
