Eros Lyrics

Why won't you call me?
Just give me your mouth
Won't you be straight with me
I can be older
Just give me the chance
I will win it all

Can you control the Sienna
To take her look

Relax your lips
Long blonde hair
I don't know if
You're even there
(Put out the fire)
I never let go
(Put out the fire)
I let the flames grow

Don't call it quits
Cold hard stare
I won't go if
You're standing there
(Put out the fire)
I never let go
(Put out the fire)
I let the flames

I'm really sorry
But I will win unintentionally
You can be sober
ButI want to dance
And I'm not dancing alone

Can you control the Sienna
Would you patrol its yellow lights

Relax your lips
Long blonde hair
I don't know if
You're even there
(Put out the fire)
I never let go
(Put out the fire)
I let the flames grow

Don't call it quits
Cold hard stare
I won't go if
You're standing there
(Put out the fire)
I never let go
(Put out the fire)
I let the flames

Nobody waits
Nobody calls anymore
Talking is dead with these fey conversations
Tired nations
Nobody cares
Too many thoughts at the door
It's all in your head
'Cause these days I'm awakened
I've been shaken
Here I am
Here I am
I been played
Here I am
(Let go)

What is the Meaning of Eros?

Exploring themes of longing, confusion, and emotional turmoil, this song delves into the complexities of modern relationships. The narrator grapples with unreciprocated feelings, yearning for clarity and connection ("Why won't you call me?"). The imagery of fire symbolizes both passion and destruction, reflecting the internal conflict between holding on and letting go ("I let the flames grow"). The repeated plea to "put out the fire" suggests a desire to quell these intense emotions. Additionally, the lyrics critique contemporary communication's superficiality ("Talking is dead with these fey conversations"), highlighting a sense of isolation despite technological connectivity. Ultimately, the song captures the struggle between desire and resignation in an era where genuine interaction feels increasingly elusive. #EmotionalTurmoil #ModernRelationships #Yearning #Isolation
